We here at CuteMonster HQ get sent a variety of items to review. Sometimes we get sent the wrong item due to human error. In this case we were sent the Nintendo Wii version of Activision’s Skylanders Trap Team. We needed the Wii U version which we hopefully plan to review in the near future. But don’t fret friends. Our short term loss is your gain! We’re giving the Nintendo Wii version of Activision’s Skylanders Trap Team away! Read on for details.

January 15, 2014 by CuteMonster Staff

Here at CuteMonster.com headquarters, we just acquired a brand new Nintendo Wii U over the holiday break. The good folks at Actision were excited to have us review their latest entry in the Skylanders universe, namely Skylanders Swap Force. Unfortunately, they sent us the Nintendo Wii version instead of the Wii U. Soon after Activision provided us with the Wii U version which we plan to review in the near future. In the meantime, we decided to give away this brand new Activision Skylanders Swap Force Starter Pack for the Nintendo Wii to one of our lucky readers. That dear friends is what you call a “win win” situation.
