'''''Nintendo Powerfest '94''''' (also known as '''''Nintendo World Championships II''''', '''''1994 Nintendo Powerfest''''' or just simply '''''Nintendo Powerfest'''''), is a cartridge of a video game for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]], and was a video-game competition in 1994 promoted by [[Nintendo]]. Many of the competitions were in towns held in a customized trailer outsite of stores.


Like in the [[Nintendo World Championships]], the Nintendo PowerFest '94 cartridge had three games, each having a task that the player had to complete within a certain amount of time. The first two games on the Nintendo PowerFest '94 cartridge are from the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]: the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''{{'}}s ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' [[reissue|remake]] and ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. In ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'', the goal was to complete [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 1-1]] as quickly as possible, while in ''Super Mario Kart'', the players had to get 5 laps on [[SNES Mario Circuit 1|Mario Circuit 1]].
==Tasks==

The final score of each player for the two games was calculated with the following equation: Score from ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' + (Coins collected in ''Super Mario Kart'' x 1,000) + Finishing position score)
Players like in the [[Nintendo World Championships]] had to complete three tasks. The following tasks on the following games are shown below:


Nintendo PowerFest '94 had four teams. The top two players on Team Tornadoes, Iarossi Mike and Brandon Veach, played against each other on [[Donkey Kong Country Competition Cartridge|a specialized version]] of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Iarossi was victorious, ultimately receiving the tile as the 1994 Nintendo PowerFest World Champion.
*''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' - Players had to complete World 1-1 as fast as possible.
 
*''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' - Players had to get 5 laps on the track selected.
 
*''[[wikipedia:Ken Griffey Jr. Home Run Derby|Ken Griffey Jr. Home Run Derby]]'' - Players had to select the mode "home run derby" and hit as many home runs as they could.
 
The final score of each player was calculated with the following equation:
 
Score from ''Super Mario Lost Levels''
<br>
 
+ ((Coins collected in ''Super Mario Kart'' x 1,000) + Finishing position score)
<br>
 
+ ((Total distance in Major League Baseball x 100) + (Number of home runs x 10,000 in the regional events or 1,000,000 in the Finals)
