On this day, October 18, 1985, the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) was released in the United States. Bundled with the iconic games Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt, the NES revolutionized home gaming and established Nintendo as a leader in the video game industry.

Did you know that the Nintendo company was founded in 1889, not as a gaming company, but as a playing card manufacturer?

What’s your favorite NES memory?
