Watch it but it realy didn't tell me any thing that i knew all ready.

No surpise they skipped the pce/tg16.My guess,there looking at the consoles that have the most commerical sucess.

Yeah the pce did great in jpn but it was a flop in the u.s.

That's like expecting them to cover the,NeoGeo when it was a cult hit in the u.s as well.

Exactly ,my opinion is same.

I disagree, but they really reports only most commercial consoles.But the true must be said.Duo/engine was the very first cd-r console.
Anyway isn't so bad documentary .I liked.

That is was nec even had ads but they bash the nes in a few of them.

While ingoreing the sega genesis big mistake there if you ask me.

Heck by the time the snes came out it became nintendo vs sega.

Even when i stuck by,the console you either had a snes or genesis.

Still it just comes down to bad management with nec&tti at the time.

I thought the history channel look into video games was ok,but realy they skip to much.

PSN:MrNeoGeo
Wii U:Progearspec

and its that I really liked at all.
I agree with u, they skip to much, but their documentary is another big step against "gamistic haters", like that guy who said videogame its ONLY for children and other bullshit stuff like that.

I've been telling my friends, co-workers, and fellow gamers for years (usually after they ask "what game system is THAT?") that the Turbo series of systems for it's time, was far and away, without arguement, the best system ever made. Then I'd proceed to pound them with info and facts and counterpoints till I won lol.

If these "experts" don't wish to cover this milestone is gaming technology, hell with em.

We need a show just dedicated to NEC's gaming....
