Wisdom Tree games were (mostly) bangers. Exodus (shown) and it's sequel, Joshua, were excellent puzzle games where you even had "weapon" upgrades, special weapons, good stuff. Spiritual Warfare was "what if Zelda, but we used Christian iconography?" Multiple biomes, needing certain items to be able to progress, boss fights that required a modicum of thought to be, and always loved how sometimes when you fruited an enemy, there's was a small chance that a demon would spawn from there body and rush at you. And I don't care what people say about Noah's Ark, little baby me loved figuring out how to catch all the animals, remembering where all the food items were, good times. We had three Nintendo's, two big boxes and one top loader, and never had any problems with any of our Wisdom Tree games.

Love the Famicom. Ever since I first got one almost 20 years ago I've been intoxicated with it and it eventually outpaced all my other retro consoles as my primary focus - and even in the 2020s the prices are still pretty good! Also, at about 8:27 you mention not knowing how to write games onto a disk - I don't think this is (easily) possible now, but at the height of the FDS' popularity, you could take your disk to a Disk Writer kiosk at your local Famicom Shop and pay a fraction of the cost of a new cart or disk to write a new game onto your disk. The Disk Writers are the ultimate holy grail for Famicom collectors, since no known samples exist within the general public. If there are still any left, Nintendo has them locked up somewhere. And they look really cool too!

Also, there is a financial issue. You have to order the cartridges from Nintendo to make you own games (so another way, Nitnendo was getting a cut). And the orders has to be per batch of 1000. You could oder 2k, 20k, 54k, but not 3250 cartridges - paid ahead - so you may have cartridges left that you already paid for...

It's important to be listing your sources for videos like this. For something like the Super Noah's Ark 3D situation, I remember the AVGN episode explicitly saying it was "according to the rumors." That isn't exactly a good way to go about it either, but sometimes you simply don't have enough concrete evidence for something, so you wanna make that distinction for clarification. You don't wanna run the risk of spreading misinformation. Reading into books and other various sources also has the benefit of discovering even more information to add nuance to your already-established arguments and can also potentially lead to new discoveries. I also like the idea of presenting gameplay as cam-recorded footage, but the framing and angles are a bit awkward. I think you might be trying to avoid some kind of glare from your light source. You can dim your lights a bit using pieces of paper or whatever else will do the trick. Ideally you wanna hold a pretty straight shot unless there is a specific composition you have in mind that would be complimented using a more unorthodox camera angle. Games that have a lot of blank black space, like Pacman which you show in the video, is gonna reflect more of your background onto the TV. What you could do to get around this is pre-record some gameplay using a capture card and playback that footage on your TV away from it so you won't appear in the reflection.

The 3DS felt very special with all the little toys and just fun things Nintendo put in the System software. I really liked the Music from the Theme Shop. Having had the System since day one it was also exciting to get a lot of new features over time with the system updates.

You have to think what Nintendo was doing was illegal. They did not have the right to force companies into an exclusivity deal. This may have been great for Nintendo (it was), but it had dire consequences to the industry. They essentially killed off innovation by starving their competition. If it wasn't for Sega and Atari, I don't know where we would be today... Take a look at the 4th generation and compare it to the 3rd. Once Nintendo's illegal hold on the market fell away, the industry exploded. There were so many ways to game, and the industry grew. Addendum- There were a few unlicensed games that were actually very good. Don't forget Tengen set the gold standard for hack&slash dungeon crawlers with Guantlet on the Nes. Rolling Thunder was decent, and so was Phantasy Zone on the Nes. They also did a fantastic job porting Sega's arcade classic Alien Syndrome to the Nes completely unlicensed. The port was actually better than Sega's port on the Master System if you can believe it.

nintendo kept adding diodes and resistors to the system to thwart the carts that "stun" the lockout chip. by the time the final version of the front loader came out, they added 1K resistors and diodes to the lines to block that pulses that stunned it. The switch on the camerica games actually disables the lockout defeater in the "A" position, which is for use with the top loader. If you keep the switch in the B position it will draw a large amount of power and will probably blow up the circuit in the cartridge if left on for any length of time. Nintendo shorted out some of the lockout pins on the cartridge connector for the top loader since it doesn't have the chip any more. AVE's defeater is kind of interesting, there is a patent on how it works- they end up sending random pulses to the chip in the system and it somehow sort of just works to stun it. Wisdom tree has a bunch of different methods it uses in an attempt to defeat it- this is why you are instructed to wait up to 9 flashes for the system to start- it is trying different methods. And tengen's chip is not a clone of the original, weirdly enough- it's a purpose built CPU with different code, but it is indeed based on the purloined 10NES code which landed them in hot water ultimately.

Tengen initially went around the lockout chip due to a shortage of IC chips during the 80s. Basically since Nintendo had to manufacture the games and couldn't get the chips, Tengen was unable to sell as many copies as there was demand. Before making unlicensed copies, Tengen went to Nintendo and asked permission to manufacture their own cartridges and were shut down.

Not a bad video, but there are some inaccuracies. Atari did not have "licensed games" like the way Nintendo did back in the days of the 2600 so there was no "unlicensed games". There were "Licenses" to port games from IP holders, but that was between publishers, and the IP holder. Atari never set up a system like that until after Nintendo did it. So even the 7800 did not do it either only the Lynx & Jaguar did it that way to a degree. There was another publisher that followed the rules, but produced more than five games per year. Konami created Ultra Games (Palcom Games in PAL regions) to release more than five games per year proving that Nintendo did not give two Fs about "Quality" as long as they were making money off of licensing fees. Nintendo did sue Tengen in 1992 "Atari Games Corp. v. Nintendo of America Inc." to be exact, and Tengen lost. The main reason they lost was due to the way they reversed engineered the 10NES Chip was not done in a clean lab way so they lost the Fair Use clause. They had to stop all sales of the NES titles, but by then it was kinda too late. They also had to pay for damages too.
