THE NES ERA - VOL. 1: THE ROAD TO NES • JAPANESE GAME CONSOLES 1979-1985

Jeremy Parish



 

Celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Nintendo Entertainment System with this massive, oversized hardcover coffee table book! Explore the rise of Nintendo’s first console before it became the NES with this collection of photos and screenshots. Where did the NES that we know and love come from? It’s all detailed here. The NES Era Vol. 1 also documents the competitors that Nintendo faced off against, charting the history of all Japanese console games from 1979 leading up to the American NES launch in October 1985.


Before it became the Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo’s first console was known as Famicom and became a massive, industry-changing hit in Japan. But Famicom wasn’t the only system out there making a bid for family TV time…. Take a look back to the early 1980s to chart not only the beginnings of Nintendo’s rise to power in the console space, but also the works of the other game makers whose systems challenged Famicom.
