Another Mario game, Super Mario's Wacky Worlds, was canceled at the prototype stage. As part of dissolving the agreement, Nintendo licensed Philips to use some Nintendo characters for their CD-i console, resulting in three Legend of Zelda games as well as Hotel Mario. By 1993, Nintendo had abandoned plans for the add-on. However, Nintendo instead signed with Philips to make the add-on, and Sony redesigned their console as the PlayStation. In 1989, Nintendo and Sony agreed to develop a CD-ROM-based add-on for the Super NES (see Super NES CD-ROM), that would allow for full motion video (FMV) and larger games. It has been retrospectively described as one of the worst video games, receiving criticism for its door-closing game mechanic, unresponsive controls, voice acting, and full-motion video cutscenes. Hotel Mario initially received mixed reviews critics felt it was fun but had no lasting appeal.
Nintendo licensed the characters after reneging on a deal for Philips to create the Super NES's CD-ROM add-on. Another Mario game, Super Mario's Wacky Worlds, was never released while a third game, Mario Takes America was planned but eventually canceled. Hotel Mario was one of four games featuring Nintendo characters published for the CD-i the others were three Legend of Zelda games. Each hotel ends in a boss fight with one of Bowser's Koopalings, culminating in a battle with Bowser. Players control Mario, who must find Princess Toadstool by going through seven hotels in the Mushroom Kingdom each hotel is divided into stages, and the objective is to close all doors on each stage. Hotel Mario is a puzzle video game developed by Fantasy Factory and published by Philips Interactive Media on the CD-i format on April 5, 1994.
