Any oldfags here remember watching The Wizard as a kid? It was basically a feature length advertisement for the NES and the power glove. It was famous for having the first reveal of super Mario bros. 3.
Anyways I saw that this movie was on rifftrax so I picked it up to watch it again. I never realized how incredibly creepy this movie is. From awkward kissing scenes between pre- pubescent kids to false child sexual assault allegations this movie has it all.
No wonder so many gamers from this time have trouble with women. I think this movie traumatized them.
I still have a crush on Jenny Lewis.
I mean, modern-day, adult Jenny Lewis. Not child Jenny Lewis. That would be kind of weird.

It was a great movie, I think people got to see mario bros 3 before it was released because of this movie. When I saw it I remember loving the aspect of a video game tournament, great flick
My older brothers said they flipped the fuck out seeing mario bros 3.

...haha
Every kid in my neighborhood came to my house when we rented the VHS
The SMB3 part was memorable but in retrospect it's some coming-of-age tale about kids which my younger self utterly forgot.

The kid with the power glove grew up to become a kiddy fiddler, he's now a registered sex offender.
Someone should stream it so we can laugh at it together.

I'd stream it but I don't really want to cheat Mike out of money.
I'm not normally one of those anti piracy types but rifftrax really deserves the money.

Id touch her breasts

She'd probably let you then accuse you of sexual assault.

I'll personally donate $10 if you steam it for us, anonplease?

Greatest depiction of gaming culture in western media to this day.
What's Fred Savage been up to lately?
>>318201154
Same thing he has always been. B-movies and lame TV shows.
>>318197790
Should've kept his power gloves off those children.
>>318201734
The power glove.. it's bad.
CALIFOOOOOOOOOOOOORNIA!

KNOWS HOW TO PARTY
Is the kid autistic?
I fucking loved the concept of that movie when i was a kid. You know, the whole videogame tournament thing. Too bad e-sports showed me how stupid that thing can be.
I'll never forget that this movie taught me how to get the secret whistle in world 1 castle in smb3.

I never actually saw it, even though I went to one of those nintendo world championship mini-conventions.
Playing all those new games on the little kiosks was as good as sex at that age.
>>318196904
I lived on a U.S. base in SEA and never got the excitement over a game I was already playing for years.
Watched the Rifftrax of this last week.
Kind of a lame movie, but I can only imagine how kids saw it at the time.

That'd be cool
NIN-JA GAI-DEN
>>318197101
>Yeah, well, uh, just keep your Power Gloves off her, pal,
>>318197701
It's a movie-length nintendo commercial. You're supposed to remember what they played, not why they were playing.
