The game was released on Playchoice 10 the day The Wizard hit the theaters.
Say what you will about The Wizard, but when I was 13 it was cool for a video game movie.
I saw The Wizard in the theaters Friday night, and was playing Super Mario 3 the next day at the bowling alley.

Having seen The Wizard again as a grown-up, adult man...it's really not that bad. I mean, yeah it's really corny in retrospect, but still it's a decent kids' movie. I still got a kick out of seeing it again.

Seriously, I don't get why people pay attention to this guy. He's not particularly witty or well-spoken. Don't get me wrong...as a kid, I was stoked to see Mario 3 footage in The Wizard, but I still paid attention to the rest of the movie. I think we even owned it on VHS (or I taped it off HBO...it was so long ago I can't honestly remember).

Nerd and Zero can't be more different, though. They both feature enough profanity-spouting, but Nerd's delivery is pretty juvenile and Zero's is a shade too high-minded (and fast) for my tastes.
