Nintendo consoles

The following can be considered an informative evaluation of Nintendo consoles from the original Nintendo Entertainment System to the Nintendo Wii and Wii points. There is a lot of information and difference when it comes to console launches in Japan compared to North America. This article will focus on information about video games in the North American market.

It all started in 1983. Nintendo launched the Nintendo Entertainment System. With the likes of Super Mario Bros. this system included many classics that are still played and enjoyed today on the Nintendo Wii. Nintendo knew what they were doing when it implemented the concept of Wii Points and allowed players to download content directly from them in exchange for the points.

Building on the success of its first real console, Nintendo thought it a good idea to bring all the fun of the Nintendo entertainment system to the comfort of the back seat of a car. What would become known as the Nintendo Game Boy. One of the most successful portable gaming systems of all time. Game Boy brought all the fun of Nintendo games right to your hand. It was bundled with the Tetris game and has also become a gaming classic shortly after its release. Building on that franchise Nintendo has continued its Game Boy line. Then Game Boy Pocket, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance and finally Game Boy Advance SP (also Game Boy Advance Micro if you really want to get technical).

Going back to mainstream consoles, Nintendo updated its already successful Nintendo Entertainment System by creating and distributing the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, or SNES. As the most successful and played console of all time, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System is still loved today among gamers. The games that can be found on this console are also downloaded through the Nintendo Wii store channel through the use of wii points.

After this, Nintendo really took a chance and decided to try a purely 3D experience. It was called the virtual child. Basically it was a base where you inserted your head to be surrounded by the 3D graphics. These graphics consisted of red lines against a black screen. This system, needless to say, did not last long. Which brings us to the next item on the list for Nintendo systems.

The Nintendo 64, or N64 as it came to be known, didn’t dominate the console market, but it wasn’t bad at all. Releasing classics like Super Mario 64 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, this console was the last of Nintendo’s consoles to use cartridges.

At the end of the N64 run, Nintendo decided to upgrade its portable system and created the DS (which has already been through several different aspects). In addition, it presented a new console. The Nintendo Gamecube. This did not dominate the other rivals either, but it held its own. The games on this system contained the best graphics to date for a Nintendo console.

It finally takes us back to 2006 when Nintendo revealed its latest creation; the Nintendo Wii. (It was originally called the Nintendo Revolution.) Nintendo outperformed the competition through very unique institution controls that actually work in most cases. Hold the Wii Remote and the Nunchuck and the character moves too. This together with the innovative Wii points system. By spending Wii Points, you can download many of the classic games that have appeared on this list of previous consoles.

Nintendo has a long legacy to uphold. If the success of their systems, especially their latest additions, is any indication, they will be around for a long time and will continue to make systems that will bring joy to many around the world.
