Games! Games! Games!

Even less well known, a title developed by Novalogic called “Super Mario’s Wacky Worlds” for the CD-i, which was never fully developed, a lost Mario game. Programmer on the project, Silas Warner comments “Novalogic was seeking work from Nintendo, we had already produced one Nintendo cartridge. A Nintendo sales executive came up with the idea that maybe simple Nintendo titles could play on the CD-i. I suspect he was thinking of some kind of adapter to plug a Nintendo cartridge into a CD slot! But it set off a frantic race at Novalogic. The project was to put a popular Nintendo game, Super Mario World onto a CD-i disk.”
