The NES is one of the most iconic video game systems of all time,
and is often credited with saving the American video games industry
in the early 80s when it looked likely to collapse. The NES
Encyclopedia is a complete reference guide to every game released
on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo's first
industry-defining video game system. As well as covering all 714
officially licensed NES games, the book also includes more than 160
unlicensed games released during the system's lifespan, giving for
the first time a definitive history of this important console's
full library. The NES continues to enjoy a strong cult following
among Nintendo fans and gamers in general, with games like Super
Mario Bros, The Legend Of Zelda and Metroid remaining well-loved to
this day: both for older fans who remember them the first time
around, and younger gamers discovering the system for the first
time through Nintendo's regular re-releases of its older games.
Nintendo's most recent console, the Switch, is the fastest selling
video game console of all time in the United States and Japan. With
Nintendo recently launching an ever-growing library of classic NES
games for download on the Switch, a new audience of gamers is
discovering the NES for the first time.
