When I was in high school, the first wave of NES nostalgia hit. With a lot of my classmates learning that the systems that had been sitting in the garage or basement stopped working. Online emulation was still in its infancy. So I had quite the enterprise going, replacing the 72-pin connectors for $10 a job (it took five minutes and the replacement connectors were $3 each).

@Riz2336 9 лет назад

The NES was the first video game console I ever saw when I was a kid. Still play mine every once in a while. The nostalgia factor is high with that console.

@AspirationHD 9 лет назад

I have many good memories of the NES as a child. Great console and even better games.

@Michirin9801 9 лет назад

Well, it is a game system where you can play Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu, Journey to Silius and Shatterhand! How could you not like it?

The NES helped raise every American who is currently 30 to 45 years old.

@TheMamaluigi300 9 лет назад

And the PlayStation helped raised most people who is currently 20 - 25. I mean just look at James Caddik. He's 21 now.

@Blur4strike 8 лет назад

I remember playing the NES back in the 1990's from K-3 before it kicked the bucket in 1999. First played Super Mario Bros on it as well as some other games that I remember playing such as Top Gun, RC Pro-AM, Contra, Jackal, Blaster Master, Tecmo Bowl, and The Adventures of Bayou Billy. Good times before the ghost of it left and the N64 came into play.

@michaelbreen7865 8 лет назад

The first time I played the Nintendo Entertainment System was when my sister Paula had the NES Power Set, which had the console, two NES controllers, the Zapper light gun, Power Pad mat, and a three-game cartridge featuring Super Mario Bros., Duck Hunt, and World Class Track Meet. I loved it so much that she gave it to me for Christmas and got the Action Set herself.

@bobjones27 6 лет назад

Egads! She could have gotten a Sega Master System and you could have just shared the power of having TWO different systems! TWICE THE POWER! The power of Alex the Kidd AND Super Mario joined, none could have stopped you.

@ShamrockParticle 2 года назад

I bought my first NES in 91. People back then were complaining about the broken pin issue. The gray/black case was never bettered in style. Still loved the Atari, but nothing beats the original Zelda. Not even Atari Adventure. 😁

@Moviefan2k4 8 лет назад

I finally got a Blinking Light Win repair part from Arcade Works in the mail today; it functions very well. My NES is back up and running; now I just need to fix three more of them.

@Aidyn3000 9 лет назад

I actually like the Famicom design more than than the NES design.

@GunshipHero 9 лет назад

Actually the design of every Nintendo gameconsole was terrible and/or boring, the GameCube may be the only exception. But thankfully it's the innerts and the games that make the console. The for sure NES/famicom is one of the greatest console of all times.

@chamomilechampion3716 9 лет назад

+GunshipHero actually

@velvetravyn 9 лет назад

+Aidyn3000 The NES was designed to look that way because Nintendo didn't want it to look like a gaming console. At that time, nobody wanted consoles, and retailers were struggling to get rid of the ones they had in stock. The NES had a great design if you look at it from a marketing standpoint.

@Noble3781 9 лет назад

+Aidyn3000 I love the Design of the NES i think it is one of the coolest looking consoles of all time. Though the Famicon and the Murican SNES are the most ugly consoles of all time. They both Yellow so quick. Where as my NES has not a single bit of yellowing. But i did pay big money to get it in this condition XD

@paulpott261 8 лет назад

@71dembonesTV 9 лет назад

How to fix the NES pin connector issue. Remove it, clean it, and tighten it. Reinstall it. Now, every time you go to play a game; just push it in. Do not push it down. It will work perfectly and you won't be putting any more unusual stress on the pins

@JUSXTREME96 7 лет назад

71dembones thats exactly what i did. I got my NES in mid 2012 and in early 2013 the pins were bad and games wouldnt read. there was also the blinking light reset thing. i disabled the 10nes lockout chip, straightened the pins and it has been working great since. Though now the only thing i keep in it is an everdrive.

@DylanTheDude1 9 лет назад

I've got the NES toploader that still works to this day. I would however love to get one of these units.

@landmind666 9 лет назад

best part of the nes these days you buy new pin connectors and mod pieces like the blinking light win that cure the biggest flaw of the console

@svenjansen2134 9 лет назад

Still got a working NES. Plus Zapper. Nothing compares to it.

@TofuTehSurvivor 9 лет назад

Mark, I'm almost certain your NES's 72-pin connector is probably what's gone wrong to make you think it's broken. Look up the product "Blinking Light Win." It's a newly developed 72-pin connector that eliminates pushing the game down and bending the connector pins out of place.

@gameoverwehaveeverypixelco1258 9 лет назад

don't forget you need a crt TV to play shooting games, won't work on LCD TVs. crt TVs are the ones with the fat backs, you can get small ones around.

@user-9sidfgsxgj 9 лет назад

Great review, as always. I think that the Famicom is a better looking console than the NES, but that's because it was my first video game console ever. If it only had longer gamepad cables, AV output and start & select buttons on the second controller, oh well. :) On the other hand I think that American SNES looked better than PAL/JP one.

@Ryan-xn3mt 9 лет назад

@gamerguy425 9 лет назад

the 72 pin problem can easily be fixed by replacing the thing, the part costs like 10 bucks and takes a good 30 minutes, it's to date the only successful repair I've done myself.... I have an FC twin since I don't have the space for the full sized console and don't want to deal with other unreliability issues..

@clutchkman 9 лет назад

I think pretty much all consoles look fine. Some look cooler than others, but they all look ok to me. Just all about the games. I remember thinking my N64 looked badass (with Goldeneye plugged in) though. NES was great, cool review. Oh yeah, the Atari 2600 looked amazing with that smooth wood grain paneling, that was a good looking game system.

PlayStation has been shit since day one. As has Xbox for that matter. They've both ruined gaming. But I'm sure the dreamcast was great too. I actually never played any Sega consoles to be honest.

@NotoriousCIB 9 лет назад

It made me so sad to see 5:12 because my Vectrex broke two week ago. :( Not sure what happened since I didn't even move or touch it since the last time I used it. Overall, I agree though. The Vectrex doesn't break as often as an NES, but good luck trying to find someone willing to try and refurb a vector graphics system with a built-in monitor. Haven't found one yet...

@TheFutureIsPrimitive 9 лет назад

+123gamerman The Vectrex is more like a consolized vector arcade system, so look for people that repair video game arcade machines. Especially if they can repair vector monitors. Then you will need a multicart with the Vectrex diagnostic or Test Cart ROM to adjust the pots for the monitor after it's repaired.

@NotoriousCIB 9 лет назад

Thanks! I'll look into that.

@trulygg 9 лет назад

I've always hated the fact that we got the NES instead of the Famicom in Europe.

@valurautakattila 9 лет назад

+- ̗̀new ̖́-Truly Atomic Also the pal converts of the games were sloppy. Black borders and slower speed. If anyone in Europe is buying an NES, just buy an American NTSC system. They're more common, cheaper and will play the games properly.

@CarozQH 9 лет назад

+valurautakattila NTSC systems don't run well on PAL TVs. I'd stick to PAL systems, even if it means that most games run slower. There are some cool PAL exclusive games, and you don't have to import all the games from America.

@valurautakattila 9 лет назад

CarozQH How? The wii virtual console games I have that are NTSC look normal on my old crt tv.

@CarozQH 9 лет назад

***** That's the Wii VC, not the actual hardware.

@GreenSoap 9 лет назад

+CarozQH NTSC systems run perfect on all my PAL TVs here at home, and all my friends' PAL TVs, both CRT and LCD. And I don't import my NTSC consoles and games, I buy them for cheap at local retailers and forums.

@71dembonesTV 9 лет назад

I keep seeing these OG NES controllers with strain reliefs. Never seen one in person. Is it a replacement cord?

@JoeyJ0J0 9 лет назад

I like the Famicom a bit more than the NES. Better desing,Better Cartridges,and a better library of games. But the NES is still a fantastic,Legendary console. The advantage is still one of my fave controllers

@TheHighupnorth 9 лет назад

I prefer the form factor as well as the durability of the Famicom but than mines not yellowed to all hell. The best benefit of owning a Famicom is all the Japanese exclusives you can play and much cheaper prices on classic and rare NES games like Lickle a.k.a. Little Samson!

@TheHighupnorth 9 лет назад

Damn Straight it is. Thats another thing about the famicom. Even if you can't afford lickle for less than half the cost of a Nes copy you can still get a bootleg. I have a bootleg honestly. Famicom collecting has a lot of benefits.

@71dembonesTV 9 лет назад

+Tweek Jones Yep, don't know why more people haven't figured that out. It's better they don't otherwise the prices on those will skyrocket too. Some of the best rare games for good prices are on the SFC. Super R type 3, Dracula X, Megaman 7 & X series, Super bomberman, etc, etc etc

@burnum 9 лет назад

+Tweek Jones The "yellow" effect on the system is from cigarette smoke. I would know, my grandmother had an NES and it did that due to the smoke from the cigarettes that she smoked.

@TheHighupnorth 9 лет назад

That or just being in direct sun light.

@raccoon681 9 лет назад
