The NES game was used in the 1991 Nintendo Campus Challenge that toured fifty cities. The top prize was an all-expense trip to Florida for the next tournament, which took place in 1992.
The NES game is a combination of Super Mario Bros. 3, Dr. Mario, and Pinbot. In Super Mario Bros. 3, the player must collect 25 coins. In Pinbot, the player must reach 100,000 points. Finally, in Dr. Mario, the player must score as high as possible. It is unknown whether Pinbot or Dr. Mario were modified, but it is known that Super Mario Bros. 3 was. After the allotted time ends, the player’s scores are totaled; their score from Super Mario Bros. 3 is multiplied by ten and the score from Dr. Mario is multiplied by 100.
