David Versus Goliath | |
Magic Kombat / int_1b3b48f3 | comment |
David Versus Goliath: Taken a literal turn when Mario flings one of the gems they earned onto a giant (who was fused from two of their enemies). The giant gets knocked down and turns into a dwarf; hilarity then ensues. | |

Pac-Man Fever | |
Magic Kombat / int_38d3a0f7 | comment |
Pac Man Fever: Basically how the film's producers saw the medium of video games, especially considering the popularity of the Nintendo Entertainment System (sold in the Philippines in its original Japanese-market Family Computer incarnation) and fighting games such as Street Fighter II at the time. | |

Stock Sound Effects | |
Magic Kombat / int_48dfb7e4 | comment |
Stock Sound Effects: With 8- and 16-bit sound effects used in spades, and a smattering of copyright infringement while we're at it, as said sound effects are directly lifted from Nintendo games and those of other developers as if the film's sound designer ran a Famicom (or more likely a clone thereof), connected it to a tape recorder and called it a day. | |

Shout-Out: The film is basically the Filipinos' love letter to video games popular with the youths of the era, albeit without the blessing of the video game studios whose works were incorporated in it. | |

Magic Kombat / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Considering how this directly lifts scenarios and stuff out of popular video games of the era, such thinly-veiled imitations are inevitable, most especially the characters of Mario and Luigi. | |
