Hi!
1985, NES launch date in america, europe got the nes in 1987
BUT
There was some countries wich was the part of the soviet union, like Hungary where I live too.
Of course the russians hate every american thing,so we don't really drink Coca-Cola, and if somone could go out for america, damn that was a big thing!
So you guessed it we did'nt play with the nes,until 1990!
Enter the Dendy(yeah a weird name)or we called it "Yellow Cartridge" Or just Nintendo.
The Cartridges looked like genesis ones but it was Yellow.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Dendy%27s_games.jpg) There were 3 types of it, and again one looked like the genesis!!! it had genesis controllers,adaptors.
It was a pirated system of course, but we still played mario,contra, TMNT, I still have one,and I use it of course!
Everyone know who is mario thanks for a little TV show.
you need to call them and if you were lucky you could play the original SMB. To controll mario you have to use the numbers. 8 up 2down 4left 6right, you get it. And thanks for that TV show we started to play (With POWER!:D)

Nice work.
Really, it is at least legible. Keep up the good job.
You know, here in Mexico we had a similar system called "Family" (named after the japanese NES), it was very low quality, and its cartridges were unable to save data (effectively ruining games like TLoZ and FF), but the price was a joke and many kids had one, ncluding me for a while.
