When last I was in Japan ('85), Nintendo was selling a thing called the
"Family Computer".  They weren't selling their Entertainment System here
at the time, and I've never taken a close look at the Entertainment
System, but I believe it's virtually the same exact thing.  It's possible
if not probable that by now they have some kind of upgraded version in
Japan, maybe a real computer at this point.  I suppose they'll call that
one "Family Video Game" or something...
