Amazing Video that will make you appreciate the NES

      Everyone remembers the NES, similiar to the original Macintosh. It was a straight up classic, with many great games such as Metroid, Mario, and Zelda. Had a great controller and a cool zapper gun. However, do you realize how important the NES actually was? Many people argue that pong and the Atari 2600 are the most influnetial and important consoles of all time, but I would respectfully disagree, I think it was the NES.
      The main reason I would disagree is the fact that Atari almost killed the industry they created. They had no idea how to maintain a console or third parties for a long period of time. They would rush games out to the market expecting them to sell when they clearly won't because they were a glitchy mess. Third parties would create what ever they wanted, and back then we had no reviewers so it was even harder to determine what was good and what was trash.
      The NES however, saved the US console business and showed exactly how to do it right. It created a perfect system with how to deal with third parties with the NES chip and Nintendo seal of approval. It also had amazing games and graphics for it's time, and created a great and comfortable controller. It also created the gaming Mascot himself, Mario. This tribute video shows that perfectly, and why I consider the NES, the most innovative console of all time.
