Forums - Nintendo - Let's Compare Nintendo's Console Launch History!

ha ha those NES box art bring back so many memories. Those were the days when we played games based on how good the box art was lol,....times were simpler then, better I would say.

Anyways, the Wii U launch games look very good compared to their other consoles.

I love My Wii U, and the potential it brings to gaming.

Yeah, what a horrible launch line-up the Wii U had, nothing at all compared to the others...

Some of those price estimates must be wrong though, a NES cost around 1500NOK in the mid 80's, that's at least 4000NOK today, the equivalent of 700-800$, unless the price difference between here and there was even bigger back then.

Nintendo stuff was expensive as hell, games cost the same in amount then as they do now!



Great find! Would love too see in for every system ever made all put up together. Even a Playstation one if that's about?

3DS had the weakest launch in terms of day one software of any Nintendo system. Seriously, looking back at it, it's a joke.




Nice.

*saves pic*

Exactly what I was thinking.

Really the only thing that saved the 3ds from becoming the Vita was that massive price cut.

Even with just 2 games, Nintendo 64 wins at launch games just because it has Super Mario 64.

Also, I don't know who made those bars, but they're wrong for nearly every system (the relative red space I mean) ...
