Nintendo Campus Challenge

Nintendo Campus Challenge is a special cart used in the Nintendo Campus Challenge. There were two different cartridges produced for it: a NES and a Super NES cartridge.

NES version
The NES game was used in the 1991 Nintendo Campus Challenge that toured fifty cities. The top prize was an all-expense trip to Florida for the next tournament, which took place in 1992.

The NES game was a combination of Super Mario Bros. 3, Dr. Mario, and Pinbot. It's unknown whether Pinbot or Dr. Mario were modified, but it's known that Super Mario Bros. 3 was. In Super Mario Bros. 3, your goal was to collect twenty-five coins.

After you played around of each game, your scores were totaled. Each scored was adjusted. Your score from Super Mario Bros. 3 was multiplied by ten and your score from Dr. Mario was multiplied by a hundred.

Super Nintendo version
In 1992, the Nintendo Campus Challenge visited thirty-five different campuses including Central Michigan University, Arizona State University, and Texas A & M University. The prize for winning at a university was a Super Nintendo with Super Mario World, F-Zero, and Pilotwings. Second, third, and fourth place winners got $100, $75, and $50, respectively. The overall winner got $10,000.

The Super Nintendo game was a combination of Super Mario World, F-Zero, and Pilotwings. Like the NES game, it too was modified. In Super Mario World, you have to get fifty coins. In F-Zero, you have to complete two laps. In Pilotwings, you have to parachute from two planes and land on a certain target.

The Super Nintendo version also adjusted the player's scores. The F-Zero score was multiplied by 100 and the player's Pilotwings score was multiplied by 10,000.

Legacy
There is believed to only be one original copy of both the NES and SNES cartridges. This makes them both incredibly rare.
