We'll take a look at how the film depicts the retro games we all know and love, revealing and ranking just how accurate (or delightfully wrong!) they truly are. From the seemingly plausible to the downright outrageously false, we'll dissect and share our thoughts on this '80s cult classic.

My dad was ripping NES games back in the day. Only guy I ever met that beat Ninja Gaiden.
That's awesome... You're dad is a legend!
The fact that Jimmy went on to play the kid in Little Big League escaped me until i was today year's old.
Only other movie I ever remember seeing him in.
The movie also repeats the same old mistake of having people mash the buttons while playing games that don't require button mashing. Maybe all the games they really play are Track&Field.
Good catch and very true 👍
My dad took me and my brother to see this in the cinema. I was 9 years old. I still remember it vividly.
You and I are of similar age. This, and for some reason, Ferris Bueller's Day Off are the movies I can remember seeing in the theater most vividly from that time in my life.
Even at age 9, I could detect the Nintendo propaganda rolling off of this movie 😂 Nice to meet you.
@@ruraladventurer1884 Lol... I wasn't quite sophisticated enough to detect the propaganda yet. Nice to meet you as well and thanks for leaving a comment :)
I have to disagree with the bit about jerking the controller around. I have a little brother that absolutely could not sit still playing NES. His ass would be jumping up and down nonstop and jerking that controller everywhere.
Everyone's experiences are different, so no worries friend 👍 Thanks for leaving a comment!
Saw the film in the theaters as a kid and damn it made you hype for the super Mario 3!
True dat 1000 percent 👍
The Power Glove was awesome!...after I cut the cord off of it and took it outside to play RoboCop.
😂 Definitely a better use than what it was originally designed for.
This was my favorite movie when I was child and now that I'm 34yo I watched it with my 2 little nephews (both gamers) few days ago. It's a bit "cheesy" watching some scenes now, but I still love it and I'm grateful that my nephews loved it as I did when I was at their age.
I tried to watch it with my nephew a few years back and he lost interest about halfway through. So I'm glad you had that experience with your nephews. It makes it more enjoyable when you have others watching that can appreciate the cheese :)
Some of the best gamers I know jerk and move the controllers around as they play. They really get into it. It has nothing to do with being a "real gamer" or not. That's just bad commentary on your part.
Ima jerker
This gave me a good chuckle 😂 All just subjective commentary in good fun on my part, so no worries.
Great Video! Trip down Memory lane and for the record my old man played the same way lol , We used to joke that sitting to close to dad playing games would get someone hurt lol
😂That's awesome, thanks for sharing! Great memories and good times, and glad to hear my pops wasn't the only one.
Ahh the memories! The Wizard and the NES. I'm glad I grew up during that era! Great video man. 👍
Good times indeed they were...Thanks for the comment!
I was only 1 when the movie was released... i watched a few years later.
i think the nintendo power hotline seemed cheesy
Totally ups the cheese factor no doubt.
You don't understand. He's the Wizaaarrrd. Duh. ;)
😂I always fall back on this one for the sake of my 9 year old self.
it could be you didn't notice the extremes of insolent stereotypes in it's characters. they might as well have called it the grand wizards.
nah fuck that super sad movie.
bro talk louder
Apologies. Need to get a better mic.
@@otggaming3180 nah son, it's not the mic. speak with more conviction. don't sound so timid. be assertive and confident when you speak
@@davidobrien4436 LOL... Thanks for the pep talk! I'll give it a go or maybe I'll try one of those AI voice changers.
@@otggaming3180 just speak up son. You’ll be fine
You know, when it comes to the score tally in Super Mario Bros. 3 at the end of the film I always figured that it was some kind of arbitrary gameshow score where they awarded points for performance rather than basing it off of the in-game score counter, hence why finding the Warp Whistle gives the player points.
Good content, I subscribed to your channel to support.
