This episode turned out a bit more like Chrontendo than I intended, so... whoops. But, basically, I wanted to compare and contrast the NES launch to that of the Famicom, to show off the very different first-year libraries each system received. It's basically a video adaptation of the book excerpt I posted a little while back, so you've probably already seen this material. But hey!

Please note that if you're watching this video as soon as I post it, you'll hear an editing glitch at about the 10-minute mark where I repeat a phrase. YouTube is processing an edit to remove that even as I type this, so enjoy my goof while ya can.

You've seen the NES lineup for 1985, when the console debuted in America. Now compare those sixteen games to the nine contained in this episode, which explores the equivalent launch time frame for the console's Japanese birth as the Family Computer back in 1983.
