This is a retrospective review of the Nintendo Entertainment System. The author discusses the classic console's vast catalogue of simple, yet fun games, great controls, and amazing graphics (for the time).

Saying the Nintendo Entertainment System is the greatest video system of all time is not a difficult argument to make. Countless video gamers could make arguments on a variety of different levels to why this is. One of these arguments clearly has to do with how many classic games were released under the NES enterprise. One could simply look at all the greatest video games of all time lists that are out there to understand how many classic games were made for this ubiquitous system. Off the top of my head I can name Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Mike Tyson’s Punchout, Mega Man and Castlevania as some of the great games for the NES. All of these games had numerous sequels after them because of the outstanding success they won from their first NES versions.
