8-bit collaboration

6th of October 2009
 

Nintendo Entertainment System



The Nintendo Entertainment System abbreviated to NES or Nintendo is an 8-bit video game console that was released by Nintendo in North America, Europe and Australia in 1985. In most of Asia, including Japan (where it was first launched in 1983), China, Vietnam, Singapore, and the Philippines, it was released as the Family Computer , also known as the Famicom or Fc. In Southern Asia, it was known as the Tata Famicom. It was succeeded by the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

As the best-selling gaming console of its time the NES helped revitalize the US video game industry following the video game crash of 1983, and set the standard for subsequent consoles in everything from game design to controller layout. In addition, with the NES, Nintendo introduced a now-standard business model of software licensing for third-party developers.
 
Most of you guys like me grew up with this console and great games like super mario, zelda, kirby, metroid prime, donkey kong and final fantasy.

So I would like to do a collaboration with YOU! yes you!
