No, this isn't about Smash Bros. In fact, Famicom Dojo probably won't be about Smash Bros. for a good few years. Famicom Dojo is a new show from Powet.tv and 4 Color Rebellion about our favorite subject: old Nintendo games. Combining clever comedy with in-depth coverage of old Japanese game hardware, specifically the Famicom and its Disk System.
Surprisingly, not all of the comedy comes from the appearance of the Famicom. Other people think it's a little silly-looking, right? Maybe we're just jealous because its player 2 microphone makes the system vastly superior to the compromised hardware we received in the US.

The Famicom works way better than the NES too. The controllers come tethered, and it's a toploader so there's none of that wonky-Beta video-esque cartridge loading. We got screwed in the U.S., but the legend goes that they made it look like a VCR to trick Americans into buying it as an "entertainment system" as opposed to a "game console." Atari had burned us bad. We were sensitive. We would only play games in VCRs from that point on.
