@yakumo9275 Yeah it is amazing that Nintendo was actually performing repairs on the old nes/famicoms, actually still is until the end of October.
But to come back to the Nintendo=Mario that I often encounter when people speak about the old Nintendo consoles. Well I can honestly vouch for the fact that there is an enormous amount of non-nintendo software out there for the Nes/Famicom that will not remind you of Mario and Kirby at all.
You'll be surprised of the depth and diversity of the software library of the Nes/Famicom. The more recent consoles like the Snes and the N64 had a far stricter policy for game publishers to be allowed to publish on the platforms resulting in Nintendo having dominion with their Mario, Kirby, Pokemon, etc games. So the Nes/Famicom is a totally different beast when it comes to game-diversity.
