Inside Nintendo's classic games console
Lots of people know the Nintendo Entertainment System. Fewer know the Japanese console it was based on, the Nintendo Family Computer, also known as the Famicom. We'll take a look inside the Famicom and its accessories, including a unique disk system attachment.
Putting It All Together
As seen here, the Family Computer connected neatly to the Famicom Disk System and still left room for the controllers to tuck snugly into the sides of the main Famicom unit.
Overall, the Famicom's influence on the art and science of video games has been profound. But the Famicom's greatest achievement was that it provided fun for millions of kids. And for that, we should all thank Nintendo for a job well done.
Happy 25th birthday, Family Computer!
