The NES was a 'Toy' NOT a Console

In 1985, the American video game industry wasn't just struggling—it was dead. The "Great Crash" had turned consoles into toxic waste, and retailers wouldn't touch a "video game" with a ten-foot pole.Then a Japanese company showed up with a gray box, a plastic robot, and a plastic gun.They didn't call it a console; they called it an Entertainment System.
