acharris #1 Posted August 27, 2005 Hi all, I wonder if anyone can tell me if there were any difference between between the NES version and Mattel Version of the NES. It just that I have always picked up NES versions at boot sales, but today I got a Mattel Version. Thanks Anthony Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acharris #3 Posted August 27, 2005 Thanks for that, but I should have said tht I am in the UK and by the looks we had the mattel version first, then the NES version after. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Draikar #5 Posted August 28, 2005 (edited) Mattel Version was sold Canada. 919772[/snapback] This is from what I know, I maybe wrong... NES is produced by Nintendo and packaged / managed / sold / distributor by Nintendo Co. LTD. in USA and Japan.... In Canada / Great Britain NES is produced by Nintendo Co. LTD of Japan BUT managed by other company's that package and sell / distributor of them there... Mattel in Canada / Great Britain package / sells them there and puts there logo on the package. thats all.... Hong Kong, NES / Famicom systems are packaged / managed / distributor / sold by Simon's Toys.... (official NES systems) Brazil packaged / managed / sold by (Gradiente (pirates at first) ) official distributor name now is Playtronics , and also sell Sega too under TecToy name and still makes Sega systems to this date. I hope this helps ??? Edited August 28, 2005 by Draikar Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
