SNESNESCUBE64 | 571 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Game genie didn't come until later and no official nintendo game came with game genie codes. Nintendo even went as far as to sue the everliving hell out of Camerica and Galoob for selling the game genie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fcgamer | 4,792 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 The Game Genie thing was a huge mistake, how did it even get through on this thread initially? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I see what happened, Google treats the Famicom as the NES when doing a search. So searching "NES Launch Date" returns July 1983. Pretty inconvenient of them.

Code Monkey | 2,023 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I'm curious when people changed their mind about Super Mario Bros. being a launch title. Did we get new information about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FooFghtrs33 | 16 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Mach rider would be following test market, 1986, and the NON-deluxe set was first. not the deluxe set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0xDEAFC0DE | 1,277 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 FWIW, even Wikipedia doesn't claim that it's a confirmed launch title. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario_Bros.#Release 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the fact that someone uploaded a picture of a 72 pin board with date codes printed in the 39th week of 1985 (Sept 23 - 29th) isn't really that much proof that it WASN'T ready almost a month later? I think if anything its harder to argue it WASN'T part of the set. Although I would agree its certainly possible not many were printed but I would say it was available on Oct 18 but in limited quantities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWarwick07 | 122 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) was super mario bros. on the poster that came with the deluxe set ? ( after research i see that it was ) If i recall super mario was available sometime in the spring or summer after launch which was why it was packed in with the action sets not the deluxe sets.... Please someone correct me if im wrong this is all off the top of the head Im also pretty sure there werent any SMB guidebooks at launch either that would have been something marketed after the system took off .
