    Does anyone know of a new Nintendo game
    that has to do with SNOWBOARDING?
    
    What's the name of it, and have you seen it
    in the stores as of yet?
    
    Regards

    	I have rented a game such as that before.  I think SNOWBOARDING
    is the name if I am not mistaken.  I would suggest that you rent it
    before purchasing it.  I found it to be kind of redundant(like most
    games aren't?).  I spent the better part of the day just figuring out 
    how to qualify.  
    	First, you are boarding downhill trying to reach a finish line
    while avoiding trees, rocks, creeks, and other obstacles.  When you 
    achieve this, you then run a slalom, after that, you just race 
    harder moguls and such.
    	You can also do stunts and tricks as you get better at learning 
    to maneuver your board.
    	IMO, it's just a rental type game.  Unless you are a collector of
    games.  I have seen the game at Nintendo Sale Centers. I'm not sure
    where you are located, but in the Bay Area,Calif.  NSC's are located 
    in some shopping malls.
    	Hope this helped ya!

    Yes, thanks for your help, your note does help.  I make a point of
    renting games before buying and I'll keep on looking for it at the various
    rental stores I frequent in the Boston,MA area.

|     If you're still interested, I saw a snowbourding game at Toys R Us the 
    other day.  It's called SHREDDIN' (I think.  I know shreddin' is part
    of the game title for sure.)  It's new out and is running 50 big ones.
