Total reminderTotal Recall is a look back at the history of video games through their characters, franchises, developers and trends.This 20-minute collection of b-roll footage, filmed as part of a news report and uploaded to YouTube only this week, gives us a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at Nintendo of America in 1990, showing everything from production to research and development up to the Nintendo Power Line.
While some of them are narrated or part of interviews, many of them are simply images that capture everyday activities, which is incredibly relaxing to somehow watch a “slow TV” . Workers assembling NES consoles by hand it’s especially great.
If this look back in time made you nostalgic for consumer electronics news, the same YouTube account has a lot of things you should check out, including the launch of the iMac in 1998 and a 1991 trip to Toys ‘R’ Us.
