Wally Bear and the NO! Gang

Title

The game was originally going to be called Wally Bear and the Just Say No Gang, but "Just Say No" was a trademarked phrase by Nancy Reagan. It was used in the US during the 1980s and the early 1990s to discourage children from engaging in drug use.

As AVE was not a licensed developer, they resorted to workarounds in order to bypass the CIC chip found on the Nintendo Entertainment System. The method they used involved a voltage spike to knock the CIC offline, but later revisions of the NES added safeguards to prevent such voltage spikes from being used. This forced AVE to include instructions on how to modify the NES to bypass such restrictions.
