Background

Dr. Wright introduces himself in the SimCity manual as your advisor and teacher. Before this he was a chemist designing experimental hair color formulas, likely resulting in his green hair. Afterwards he was invited to join the revolutionary new SimCity game team thanks to his expansive field work in Urban Planning, Computer Aided Design, and Nintendo Game Counseling. His first recommendation is to destroy Tokyo a few times before settling in the game and actually building. From that point he provides the player with invaluable tips on how to run a city, both in-game and in the manual.

He graduated from Mario State University and lives at home with his family in a city he designed out of an environmentally safe wicker.

Mr. Write and Dr. Left

A parody character of Dr. Wright appears in the Legend of Zelda series. In these games his name is first parodied into Mr. Write and later into Dr. Left, a pun based on 'Wright/Write' sounding the same as right.

In The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, Mr. Write appears as a character living on Koholint Island in the Mysterious Woods. Here he is a writer (as per his name) that exchanges letter with Christine, a girl from the Animal Village. Although he receives a fancy picture of 'Christine' (that is actually Princess Peach), she in actuality a talking goat.

Dr. Left appears in The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons, though he remains unnamed. Here he is a biologist from Horon Village. In exchange for lighting the torch in his room, he gives Link the Cuccodex which starts off the game's trading quest. In The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, Dr. Left is a gruff scholar who specializes in studying Picori, but completely unaware of the fact there are some in his own home.
