If you've made it this far, we want you to know that our dream with this is to win enough to take the trip of a lifetime to Japan, go to a workshop to get a custom Game Boy made, eat sushi and ramen until we're stuffed, and come back with a suitcase full of merchandise we don't know what to do with. We hope it's fun enough!
