C1 NES TV - Overview

Overview

The C1 NES TV is a television set developed jointly by Sharp Corporation and Nintendo that features a built-in Famicom system. The system was licensed by Nintendo and was released in 1983 to Japanese markets. It was noted for having a clearer picture quality than the original setup requiring a Famicom and composite video connection. For this reason, screenshots featured in video game magazines of the time were often taken from the C1 NES TV.

The system featured two in-built programs, JR GRAPHIC and TV NOTE, and in Japan it was shipped with the game Donkey Kong Jr./Donkey Kong Jr. Math (ドンキーコングJR./JR.算数レッスン?) - at the time of its release the only licensed multicart made for the Famicom. This cartridge was unique to the Sharp C1 NES TV, and it featured a combination of Donkey Kong Junior and Donkey Kong Jr. Math (similar to the Mario-Duck Hunt package released with the original NES system).
