The Nintendo Entertainment System was first Test Marketed on October 18,1985 in NY/NJ before having a Regional launch across most parts of the US throughout late '85. By Christmas, it was widely availible mostly everywhere.

I've been looking all over for this late '85 commecial! Thanks. (I didn't get my NES until December 27,1987 my fitfh birthday.) The NES first launched in the U.S. On October 10,1985 five months after it was first test marketed and two years after the Famicom launched in Japan. although Nintendo was mean to 3rd party publishers in those days , they weren't really the assholes they are today with that gimmick $&*% that they pull.

Anyone remember playing Double Dragon? That game was the shit!
it was ok, but definitely not as good as the arcade one, not simultaneous two player play
This thing is from '85??!?!?! Looks much newer like around 89 or 90.
I was a youngster raised on Atari 2600. But when Nintendo came out after the crash I was like holy shit holy shit mom get me that please.

Ofcourse they ruined it. lets not get into the Monopolistic behaviour of Nintendo in those days. The shit they pulled makes even Jay Allard cry.
Shit? Excuse me, but Nintendo paved the way for all other video game companies, so show respect to the NES.
