Nintendo Promotional Brochures: Super NES, Power of Choice, Virtual Boy (1991-1995)

One of the more unique aspects of my collection are the many brochures that Nintendo published to promote their various gaming consoles. As a kid, I can remember how excited I was to spot one in a store like Wal-Mart or Target and take probably what most would consider more than my fair share home with me. This video showcases my collection of Nintendo brochures for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), Nintendo's "Power of Choice Campaign," and Virtual Boy from 1991 to 1995.

Great video! A very under-rated piece of gaming history!

That SNES vs Genesis chart is hilarious. And the dig on the 32X at the end was icing on the cake. I wish I had one of those brochures.

"Was this their intention? To crash my dimension?" Me: This brochure predicted the future.

Actions speak louder than words. Very true. I stopped at the snes. See if the n64 brochures have me upgrade.

I can't even imagine there were virtual boy brochures! but they exist.

$400 system with a two title lineup. Lord that felt like me with my PS4 when I bought it at launch. Knack and Killzone.

"Oh the virtual boy..." lmao

I think the $400 Games System with only two games was referring about the 3DO.

[@LaPlacedesJeux]

I may be wrong, but I think the price of a 3DO was $700.

Snes also had a better sound device u.u
