My Adventure with the Nintendo Comics System
The first thing I noticed here was the list of included titles. The first three are expected standard fare. It is the next three that really jump out. Game Boy?! We see a panel to the right depicting Mario emerging from a Game Boy, looking for Daisy, the princess of Mario’s Super Mario Land Game Boy adventures. We also see here that we will be treated to Punch-Out!! and Metroid comics. Cool! Let’s get in there!
The stars of Nintendo’s American cartoons. Brand synergy!

Our first title is “Game Boy: In the Palm of Your Hand…”
