Family Computer Disk System Review

Brief Description:

The Famicom Disk System was a game console released solely in Japan by Nintendo. It's basically a Japanese remake of the NES, though it's considered to be a totally separate console. It was released in Japan in 1986.

The Positive Points:

-It uses floppy disks instead of cartridges. Not only is this a more advanced and cheaper form of media, but it also fixes the problem that the NES had with it's cartridges (the NES had a problem where it sometimes wouldn't read the cartridges).

The Negative Points:

-Floppy disks are easier to pirate, and can also break easier than cartridges.

Innovative: No

Affordability At It's Release (affordability for it's time): To Rent - Cheap / To Buy - Cheap

General Public Rating: It's hard to say, I don't see or hear a lot of comments about it

Success: Unsuccessful

My Personal Final Rating: Good (4/6)
