HE HAS ENTERED ANOTHER WORLD

Daaaaamn, a time when people didn't know what Nintendo was, or who Mario is. Must have been terrifying.

FUCKING THING SUCKS

FUCK IT!  We'll do it LIVE!........There are no words on that screen!  FUCK IT!  We're doing it live!  Fucking thing SUCKS!

OMG, If that was him, then what have they done with the real Bill-O?

Nintendo's own marketing guy had it wrong. It really *was* Mario Mario and Luigi Mario, according to the totally canon Super Mario Bros. movie. Yep... totally canon. TOTALLY CANON.

Another sweet line: "These people play videogames for a living!"

Wow, this is from 1989, so many people used to be so fucking retarded. Wont someone do a piece like this Gears of War! Also you see that Bill had trouble with Lincoln logs, ah fuckin retard, too bad, not get the fuck off tv if you cant built a house like the one our greatest president lived in.  Dumbass.

"totally canon Super Mario Bros. movie"

That fucking thing sucks!  There were no words in it!  There are no words there, it makes no sence!  Fuck it!  Put the cart in the NES, we're doing it live!!  Do it live! 

wow i gotta get in on this whole Mario thing. kids and their fantasies what will they think of next

I was born in 1991, that video is awesome.

"I wonder when Bill O'Reilly went all crazy because he seemed normal in that video."

Dang that clip is old but, still fun to watch.

And thats a memo

holy cow!!!!

wow! I was around 7 years old when that aired.  Funny stuff.  The Fun Club President guy has a pretty rad boe tie going on.

wow, that brings back some good memories. my friends and i beat that game so many times and we still didn't get tired of it.

Wow, what a trip.

Whats interesting is that back then you could ask some random person what nintendo or mario was and they look at you cockeyed. Now a days you can ask just about anyone and they know what both are. Amazing how much can change . Of course it has been 20 years. I remember playing an NES when I was 4 years old just glued to the tv set.  20 years later I still enjoy playing the system now and again, and every now and then I'll bust out the NES or SNES and play for a bit.

On another note, Bill O'Riley Positive? Really must have been the 80's cause I don't think that shtis possible.

HOWARD. PHILLIPS.

Also, the tv on the NES demo station? It's a Sony, lol.

Nothing like the Nintendo Fun Club!

Damn, this feels like it was such a long time ago, and makes me feel old.  Why does it seem like this was filmed in the 50's, or something?  It's almost as if it was another world in that video.  Everyone is all nice and kind and cheeful.  I just watched a video with Bill O'Reilly in it, and didn't want to punch him in the face at the end of it...

Oh great Luchadeer!  Take me to this magical land you have placed before my eyes!

I never really realized this, probably because I wasn't alive at the time, but 8-bit Nintendo games certainly have a lot more charm than today's games.

Those were the days indeed. I miss the days of playing NES with my two older brothers.

Wow, Bill O'Reilly was thin once? Crazy. Still looks like an asshole though.

Oh man we need modern day tech support centers for video games. 

It's nintendo's howard phillips!

This clip gives the friggin dog a bone.  Man I miss the simple days

It's amazing how the NOA building has not changed one bit since I was there in 2006.....not one bit.

mario puzee

Now you're playing with power.

"Danger, intrigue and magic?!" Dead God, won't someone think about the children?

Oh man, check of Nintendo Game-play consultant Ron Leingang's sweeeeet mullet.  With a bitchin' haircut that rad, you know the guy knows his Mario...and he gets all the ladies, too.

Howard Phillips you know damn right.

Hard hitting questions such as "They are the Mario brothers...so are their names Mario Mario, and Luigi Mario?"

Damn, he hit him hard with that one.

You ARE the mario

PLAY VIDEOGAMES FOR A LIVING!?

That was an epic transition there at the end    "can they recue a princess, can they save the world...Thats all of us"  -  Mario freezes midair fist toward the sky -  cut to newsdesk.    yeeah....

WE'LL DO IT LIVE!

dude... that must be the most AWESOME JOB EVER!!

That was absolutely brilliant!

I don't remember anything quite so gloriously tacky back in the day within the UK. Or maybe that's just my rose-tinted glasses...

back then: they like super mario bros. (well not all of them)
now: little kids like 7 year old are playing Rated M games

Man, those kids suck ass at that game!

o..m..g.. Video game tech support ? damn. If only it were like that now...
