The NES supported multiple accessories throughout its life, beginning with the Famicom BASIC computer, with was released alongside the Famicom data recorder/tape deck. Another accessory was a Family Computer Network System, which allowed users to access a server which provided downloadable content, cheat codes, jokes, on-going stock trades, the weather, and equine betting. The accessory and the server was not a commercial success, largely due to the fact that the concept of using a server for an Internet-like experience was still in its infancy. Other peripherals for the Famicom included a Stick controller which worked primarily the same as the NES Advantage controller. | |||
