This is really well-written, but I have a few comments.

- Overall:
- Pass/Fail:
- Pass/Fail:
- The phrase "the player" is written ten times in the Gameplay section. Not much you can do about this, but thought I'd point it out anyway.
- Don't think it's necessary to link Tim and Chris Stamper, since it just redirects to Rare.
- Speaking of which, shouldn't they be referred to as "Tim and Chris Stamper" in this instance, instead of "the Stamper brothers"?
- The IGN reference can be placed at the end of the sentence, alongside the GamesRadar reference.
- The final two sentences could be merged, and connected with "catalog, stating that it aged..." instead of "catalog. They said it aged...". Just an idea.
- My main concern with this article is the layout; I can understand the lack of development information, so I'll let that slide, but it has resulted in an article that looks a little cramped. I have a few ideas:
- Consider forcing a table of contents.
- I'd also consider adding {{clear}} at the end of the Gameplay section.
- Is File:NES-Console-Set.png really necessary? I'm all for adding images of consoles to articles, but I feel as though this doesn't really add much, and just contributes to the clutter.
- I also thought I should mention this interview, where they mention Cobra Triangle. You've probably seen it already, and I don't quite see how you could use it in the article anyway, but I figured I should mention it anyway.
You've done a great job with this article, especially considering the limited information available; pretty much every point above is a suggestion, rather than a requirement, so it's almost good to go. Putting it on hold for now. – Rhain1999 (talk to me) 06:33, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
- @Rhain1999, thanks for the review! I think I got everything, if you'll take a look. I kept the mid-sentence refs so as to preserve verifiability, and I removed one Stamper bros but kept the other because they'll very likely have their own article eventually. – czar 13:53, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for addressing everything so quickly! Thanks for the clarification, too. I just took another look at the article, and can't see any remaining problems. You've done a great job with this, though I'm sure you don't need reminding at this point. Here you go: ! – Rhain1999 (talk to me) 14:08, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
