One hopes that this “cereal” came with extra lives.

The Nintendo Cereal System. “If you can’t beat ’em, eat ’em.” Indeed. It’d be nice if there were some random power-ups scattered inside to get kids through the inevitable sugar-crash.

The really bad news? If you mixed both the Super Mario Bros. and Zelda cereals together they made DEADLY POISON. (I just made that up. Don’t sue me, Nintendo Powers That Be.)

Remember the Star Wars “C-3PO’s” cereal? It used to give me horrible hiccups. I’m not sure about the relevance of that. Just throwing it out there.
