friendly reminder that Nintendo gave it to Superman 64 too

>>57943064 (OP)
The amount of shovelware with it proves that it never really meant anything, do not worship or respect companies, they only see you as a wallet.

>>57943064 (OP)

Literally the only thing it ever meant was that your game was officially licensed to run on nintendo hardware

It has never and will never have anything to do with “quality”

>>57943698
>>57943870
wrong

>>57943359
They're all bad.

>>57944180
this is literally what it was, it's on an overwhelming supermajority of the officially released games of the era, with the notable exception of original gameboy games (because they were sued for that console specifically) and lower priced later rereleases (which have the player's choice seal instead)

Yeah, but not what you assumed it to be. It meant the game software was held to the standards Nintendo was holding themselves to, to build public confidence in a market that got HEAVILY affected by the crash at the turn of the 80's. Games still launched buggy and broken at times, but they didn't affect the console, which is all Nintendo gave a fuck about, so their image couldn't be harmed by-proxy.

It actually never meant anything other than "this cartridge won't damage your console"

>>57943870
This. The 80s and 90s had plenty of shitty games (mostly licensed ones).

So.. you agree that it was a seal of quality by nintendo.

welp

i liked it as a kid, very comfy, almost liminal. meditative.

The OP of the reddit thread deleted his thread and comments, so it looks like even basic, shit the console walks you through is far too challenging for the average luser.

>>57946511
redditors are so disgustingly fragile

>>57943064 (OP)
It meant that the cartridge it came on would work mechanically. It did nothing to quantify the status of whatever game was on that cartridge.

>>57943064 (OP)

It never meant anything aside from officially licensed product, not just cartridge. Some guy at Nintendo took a glance at a game or a third party product and just said "ship it". I mean even the Power Glove has the "Seal of Quality" and that thing was almost nonfunctional.

>>57943064 (OP)
As mentioned already, this seal meant nothing considering all the licensed shovelware released on the NES
