The Nintendo Entertainment System was an 8-bit console which shares the same internal components as the Japanese-market Famicom, but has a redesigned case for Western markets. The CPU is essentially the same as the 6502 used in various other machines in the museum, but the power of the NES comes mainly from the video chip (the PPU, or Picture Processing Unit).
