http://digg.com/gaming_news/Arcade_in_a_Box_Smash_It_Up_Video_Contest

Arcade-in-a-Box will be holding a contest and will be giving away a complete Arcade-in-a-Box solo console arcade controller to the winner. More prizes will be added as the contest progresses. New sponsors and prizes will be added to this post including other prizes for Arcade-in-a-Box, Gameroom magazine and more.

For the contest we are asking contestants to enter videos showing them destroying gamepads in the most creative ways possible. We just ask that you be safe, be smart, and don’t injure yourself in the process.

The contest will last about until the end of April, at which time our panel of judges will pick the top 10 videos. Once those videos are selected, there will be a website created where users can vote on their favorite video by DIGGing them. The winners will be determined by the amount of DIGGs each video gets.

We have a youtube group created for you to upload your videos.

No nudity
No drug use
Nothing illegal

That’s it, now get out there and Smash up those wussy gamepads .

Updated the first post with more prize information

 

this sounds fun

I have an idea actually. A creative one.

 

can i join the contest even if im from finland?
and also I was thinking of buying a stick from you, but do you ship to Finland at all?

 

Master_Pain,
I do ship world wide. Looks like shipping to Findland would be about $57. Plus whatever customs fees your country will put on the package.

I'm afraid I can't offer the grand prize to anyone not in the USA. Mostly because of the shipping fees involved. I would love to give the option to out of country people to post a video if they are willing to pay the shipping, but that would get pretty hard to manage really fast.

Plus, I'm not sure how the other prizes will work outside of the US as well, so it's much easier to just limit it to the US.

I'm sorry.

 

ah cool i understand
