Nintendo Cereal System

Nintendo Cereal System

Nintendo Cereal System was a breakfast cereal produced by Ralston Cereals in 1988. The name of the cereal was based on the Nintendo Entertainment System, and promoted two of the most popular games for the NES: Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda. The cereal has recently been selling for around $100-$129 on online auction sites.[1][2]

Appearance

The cereal box was divided in half. One side, called Super Mario Bros. Action Series, had fruity-flavoured Marios, Super Mushrooms, Goombas, Koopa Troopas, and Bowsers, and the other, called Zelda Adventure Series, had berry-flavored Links, hearts, boomerangs, keys, and shields.[2] The cereal came with a sticker of a Nintendo character and Nintendo "Power Cards" (a set of twelve trading cards) on the back panel. It also had offers to win NES Power Pads or a Super Mario cereal bowl.
