Nintendo Entertainment System: the King of Gaming Consoles

My favorite current gaming console would be Xbox 360 hands down. I have an insight into electronics through my work on an electronics assembly line calibrating round spacers, so know a thing or two about these consoles.
Having said good things about the Xbox, my favorite gaming console of all time would have to be the original Nintendo Entertainment System. The original NES will always hold a special place in my heat because that’s where my gaming began. For my 8th birthday I received a Nintendo, and I played until I had blisters on my thumbs. That was by far the greatest birthday I’ve ever had. That system inspired the minds of the game creators of today. Even without today’s technology, it managed to keep us entertained for hours and even days at a time. There were no online lobbies, or headsets for smack talk, there weren’t even memory cards. We had to keep the game on pause and hope our parents didn’t complain about the cost of electricity. We also had to practically beg for TV time, since back then most of us only had one TV in the house. I guess it may be similar to my first car, or my first true love, but for all these reasons the original Nintendo Entertainment System is my favorite video game system of all time an should forever wear the crown as The King of all Gaming Consoles.
