Famicom commercials

[@bigboi5545]

Holy shit the Japanese Zapper ain't playin' around.

[@Luigi_bros4321]

Japan isn’t as strict with what kids can use or see (to my belief) America and other countries (especially Germany) were stricter with what kids could see

[@Vienna3080]

The Famicom was litteraly a computer It had a Disk Drive, a Keyboard, a tape recorder, a microphone, an internet modem, it was the Swiss Knife of its time

[@realityvanguard2052]

Literally anything that computes is a computer.

[@lifepreviouslybalanced5743]

And a gun

[@rubiks_20]

Technically the NES in the States was going to be a computer as well, but the idea was scrapped

[@spartakusgoulash3109]

Commodore 64.

[@ciaragarrity6425]

@@rubiks_20 Interesting! I did hear that Nintendo was trying to port the Famicom Disk System, but never knew they were going to give us a keyboard and everything else with it.

[@Planetkid32]

Timestamps for each individual Famicom commercial: 0:08 - Tennis + Pinball 0:45 - Light Gun Games 1:24 - Urban Champion + Clu Clu Land 2:01 - Excitebike 2:39 - Balloon Fight + Ice Climber 3:16 - Wrecking Crew 3:54 - Family Robot Games 1 4:32 - Family Robot Games 2 5:10 - Super Mario Bros. Edit: Happy 40th anniversary to the system!

[@rippspeck]

Famiri Computa.

[@Justin-Hill-1987]

I like the multicolored cartridges. It's something the Famicom got that never got carried over to the NES.

[@jca14344]

Been playing since 1984 HOORAY!

[@Soulblaze15]

if you live in asia in the 80's probably you own a famicom... i miss the old good days

[@bigboyanimation3799]

The Famicom was more powerful then the Atari. I remember getting it for Christmas from our neighbors and it was the best Christmas of my life, but my dad didn't buy me cartridge for it to get away from paying money.

[@rashedabdullah8240]

why was it called "famly computer" when they had the most realistic gun

[@TheGreenManiac10]

This gun vs the nintendo zapper

[@RyneMcKinney]

No wonder the Nzap 83 in Splatoon isn't the "realistic" gun from the famicom

[@nintega_64]

Because Japan is better than America when it comes to Nintendo

[@Antilluminati]

@@nintega_64 not when it comes to Super Mario 2

I wonder what Japan's motto was for the Famicom

[@nipulkradmsinatagras8293]

*My childhood under 6 minutes.*

[@Rad1kus]

@NESHero It's from a Japanese DVD.

[@nintendawg9283]

30 years later, this commercial has convinced me that I NEED Wrecking Crew for my Famicom.

[@beauwalker9820]

Building your levels is pretty cool. The Wii/WiiU/3DS Virtual Console versions fix the save feature.

[@eucalipto9724]

lol me too!

[@JokerXDHaHaHa]

Yeah! You could hold up a damn liquor store with that thing!

[@beauwalker9820]

Yeah, that toy gun would not fly nowadays. Kinda cool it had a holster for "Wild Ginman" though. (The first light gun/Zapper game.

[@icetony14]

The click sound of when a cartridge is inserted. Nintendo brought it back with the switch sound. Well played Nintendo

[@GirlPower707]

これは素晴らしく見えます。ぼんやりと当時のことを覚えています。私の叔父はファミリーコンピュータを持っていました。

[@RetroGaming-gp2ef]

The Famicom beam gun looked very close to a colt peacemaker

[@lf881]

My engrish is rusty... here's the game list: tennis, pinball, golf (just mentioned), wild gunman, duck hunt, hogan's alley, urban champion, clu clu land, excitebike, balloon fight, ice climber, wrecking crew, stack-up, gyromite, super mario bros.

[@Chem-s3o]

the graphics were awesome back in days, and no1 complained about shaders or anythings:D

[@SnowBunneh]

It feels weird looking at this and my famicom is all yellow.

[@Jensuarezgonzalez]

The Nintendo Entertainment System was launched in 1985 in the U.S. and Canada. In Japan, it is known as the Nintendo Famicom. The best selling NES game as of 2012 is Super Mario Bros.

[@jorasaveminiaturas]

I used to have one when I was young it actually was called only Family in Mexico =)

[@greatrey]

How is it that the Japanese got the 6-shooter Zapper and we didn't?

[@doctored3029]

Nothing beats the U.S.A NES Zapper

[@greatrey]

Robo Both I hear ya. I like our Zapper too. Just wondering, that's all.

[@doctored3029]

Rex Brown Why would there be a japanese zapper in the U.S if we already have our zapper?

[@doctored3029]

Alec Wilson but look at the odyssey light gun, it has a rifle light gun, that really looks like a rifle.

[@peteralexander2941]

Because the us and European governments are pussies about anything that looks like a real gun, even if it's got a long wire connected to it and works on a console, why do you think the nes zapper had its colour changed to orange?

[@Taneuma_563]

It kills me that they made one of the ROB commericals based on a concept where the person playing is being watched by a law enforcement agency that forbids fun in any form.

[@ForceMaximus84]

More, please!

[@Mr8bitgamer]

awesome thanks for posting

[@nakamanga5412]

FAMICOM, a console, in my opinion, more important that atari 2600

[@edh8900]

Well, without it, gaming like how it is nowadays would not be possible

[@OGlohocla1994]

Way to sell that shit... Excito bike

[@dreamin4444]

Usa: family computer😀 Poland: famili kompjuta😁 Japan: famiri computa😂

[@Deep_wolf]

Fun fact: game costs 4500 yen in 1984, so it was around $18, which today is will be around $42.

[@100kitfox]

[@chrismartin583]

You forgot wrecking crew

[@M1YAK2]

Geez!!! The gun is actually looks like a revolver. Like the Odyssey.

[@williamcrowe2576]

The look of the light gun, holster and all, kinda harkens back to the original Wild Gunman arcade machine which used twin 8mm projectors. I believe the creators of the game got the idea from a scene in The Great Train Robbery.

[@Rad1kus]

@chaofreak8 The first Famicom controllers were with soft rubber (square) buttons, but they could were down easily so they revamped the design, and they updated to the hard round buttons which they also used in all NES controllers later.

[@lizzie-wizzie]

omg the nes zapper looked like a real gun!

[@MarcoPolo82]

Is the actor of the Metalder Tokusatsu show?

[@mwells219]

What is the game called at 1:27 I remember playing this one where you would fight and try not to get caught when police drive by, you would stand on a corner and whistle like nothing going on lol...My dad bought the one game cartridge with tons of games on it (bootleged?).I remember it had a super mario bros version where blocks would phase in and out, so it was tricky. I still love the maroon/gold/black gamepads to this day.

[@beauwalker9820]

It's called "Urban Champion." There's a 3D remake on the Nintendo 3DS Eshop for 5 bucks.
