The movie is a crossover of "Die Drei ???", the German version of "The Three Investigators" and Maniac Mansion, which is the prequel to Day of the Tentacle. The full name for DOTT is actually "Maniac Mansion: Day of the Tentacle".
Some of the past events hinted at in Day of the Tentacle, such as the death of Weird Ed's first hamster in a microwave, occured during Maniac Mansion. The Bernard in both games in the same guy, although in DOTT he's five years older and a bit more mature.
