I enjoyed that, but blasphemous statements were made.

Rob said that all (or nearly all) NES/Famicom soundtracks sounded "very similar"....but I disagree (I am not including additional sound chips added to carts).

Also, the SK-1 seen in the video was, I believe, an incredibly popular keyboard because nearly everyone I knew as a kid got one at some point. It was heavily marketed one Christmas and my brothers and I were delighted to get one.

It was a rugged little keyboard.

Yeah, gotta agree, NES games only sounds similar in that they are 8-bit in general.  There is quite a range in sound on the NES IMO.
