I was 13 when it came out, and I knew it was an ad for Nintendo, but I didn’t care. It was exceedingly rare to see video games focused on like this in a movie and I really liked it! Even today, it’s cheesy, but not a bad movie.

If anyone’s curious as to whether this scene was considered cringy when the movie came out, yes. Yes, it was.
