The kinds of games you got on NES were way different than what you got on computers at the time. I'm positive that you would have never seen a game like Super Mario Bros on a Commodore or Apple II or whatever. A game that probably get's brought up too much but I'll do it anyway: The Legend of Zelda. Look, I'm not going to say it's a perfect masterpiece that should be held up on a pedestal. But you cannot deny that game's impact. Nobody really saw games like that at the time. An objective and an end without high-scores or lives. Could you honestly say that games today would be the same without big N? |
A lot of these guys grew up with PlayStation so they don't realize the impact Nintendo had.
