CHICAGO Nintendo’s “Who are you?” campaign gets cinematic treatment with a 60-second spot that breaks in theaters Oct. 30. Shorter versions of the spot, backing the launch of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario Advance 4, break Monday on TV.

Leo Burnett’s “Who are you?” campaign, which launched with print and outdoor Sept. 29, is the game company’s first not linked to specific titles since 1994.
