Ever since Nintendo's has gotten into the game console career. They have always been some of the later consoles to be released in a generation.

  1. First Gen: N/A
  2. Second Gen: N/A
  3. Third Gen: NES (Jul 15, 1983), Atari 7800 (May 1986), Sega Master System (Sept 1986)
  4. Fourth Gen: Sega Genesis (Aug 14, 1989), NEC Turbografx-16 (Aug 29, 1989), SNK Neo Geo (Apr 26, 1990), SNES (Nov 21, 1990)

I disagree with this synopsis.  1st and 2nd gen are not N/A.

1st gen - Atari 2600, Intellivision

Then came the video game collapse of 1983....

2nd gen - NES, SMS

3rd - SNES, Genesis

etc....

Also, it was the NES that released first in the 2nd gen to lead the recovery from the '83 disaster.

Yes, I left them as N/A for Not Applicable, cause this is about Nintendo. Nintendo started the 3rd gen with the Famicom/NES in 1983.
