Celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Nintendo Entertainment System with this third and final oversized hardcover coffee table book chronicling the console and its competitors! Explore the days when Nintendo’s first console and 8-bit systems from Sega and Atari ruled supreme with this collection of photos and screenshots. This book covers it all!
The Pinnacle of 8-Bit Gaming!
When people think “console wars,” they think back to the 16-bit era of Sega Genesis and Super NES. But before those systems arrived in America, the 8-bit console landscape was every bit as vibrant—not to mention contentious—as the 16-bit days. Relive the 8-bit console conflicts here as all the major and minor players alike mastered the nuances of their hardware and pushed the boundaries of game design forward. Did you side with refined NES masterpieces like Super Mario Bros. 2 and Mega Man 2, cutting-edge Sega adventures like Phantasy Star and Shinobi, or advanced Atari efforts like Desert Falcon and Dark Chambers? Were you a mail-order loyalist for the fading Intellivision? Or did you simply prefer to wait for the arrival of portable entertainment with the shiny new Game Boy? No matter what your 8-bit preferences, NES and the Peak of 8-Bit chronicles it all with vivid color photography and direct-capture screenshots!
