The Nintendo World Championships was a series of qualifying events that culminated in an event at Universal Studios Hollywood. The event was even used as the climax of the Nintendo commercial / cult favorite movie The Wizard, where Fred Savage takes his younger brother to California while learning that the young man is a video game savant. You may notice that Nintendo took this opportunity to introduce the world to the Power Glove in one of the most overwrought scenes imaginable, but once you get past that you'll also see Jenny Lewis, who was then a young actress who also starred in a Corn Pops commercial. Jenny Lewis later went on to a career in music, where she fronted the badass band Rilo Kiley.
