Super Mario Bros 3 was supposed to not have been played by anybody and that setting yet. Ninja gaiden is b******* but there is a chance someone could know it where SMB3 was supposed to be fresh for everyone

I think if I were running Nintendo tournaments at the time, I probably would have done exactly that too had the second to last round be something ridiculously hard and the final round be pure advertisement for our newest release

Because SMB3 was the reward for 3 lucky kids, in this case. Ninja Gaiden was the final round for that prize.

but, like, hold up—the point was that it had *never been played by anyone in the US before that tournament*: you're not only learning new physics, uncharted levels, and have *no clue what's going to happen next*, but have to stifle your own H Y P E enough to competitively perform
