    Spawn wave sent me to relive my very first video game console! The memories to be part of that generation of gaming is awesome to reflect back on!

    I still have my NES original, NES Top-loader and Japanese Famicom. It still holds up for me. Even after all these decades. I remember showing my one cousin who was 6 at the time how to play Duck Hunt. She enjoyed it, whenever she came over. Now, she still thinks of those times.

    This was officially the last great episode of G4 Icons because the King Kong episode that came after this episode would change the format of this series completely and cause the original video games centric episodes in Icons to be rebranded as Game Makers

    I also like the story of this system,I usually find NES units at Flea Markets,and repair them to get them in good working order,and one time I bought a damaged unit and took 3 Hours of work on it to get it running.I do have the fixing gene. And next year this consoles celebrates the 40th anniversary.

      It was. that in fact there was two versions Of Super Mario Bros available in the arcades, V.S. Super Mario Bros which was made for the Vs duel and unisystem which had harder gameplay, different coin numbers to get an extra life (depending on the dip switch settings), fewer warp zones and power-ups, more enemies, and 6 new levels that were eventually be incorporated into the Japanese Super Mario Bros 2, and a version on Nintendo’s Playchoice 10 which was essentially an arcade NES with a timer.
