The gray flashing screen and blinking light are sources of both epic memories and eternal frustration. No experience quite matches trying to make a US model "toaster" NES run correctly.

So I had it blasting while listening to it, and the very end scared the crap out of me! I forgot the NES had the capability to do that! XD

Fantastic. Here's to 25 (and more) years of the NES living on in our hearts.

Nice use of the PCM channel at the end.

My NES never flashed grey though, it flashed every colour available to it

Ah, the memories... Oh, wait. Those are bad memories.
Any way, that was great, and I'm sure I'll watch it again some time.

Yeah, I have at least one (really old) toaster that usually flashes purple or brown. I think it depends on the PPU revision.

That was... oh wow. I'm going to be hitting reset multiple times, as if I'm five again, watching those Disney Sing-A-Longs.

Though I kinda feel like crap now -- I was born after the NES's time, and didn't actually play it until 10 years later. Then the plumber who has been reduced to a pile of hex, and, ultimately, the gray screen

Am I the only one who finds calling it the "toaster" absolutely hilarious?

I chuckled a little, after calling it a toaster.
