The Famicom, short for "Family Computer", was the Japanese version of the NES. It was released in 1983. Many more addons for the Famicom than the NES were released, including a [[wikipedia:Famicom Data Recorder|tape drive]] for saving data, a keyboard for use with a [[wikipedia:Family BASIC|BASIC interpreter]], and a [[Famicom Disk System|floppy disk drive]]. The Famicom's controller contained a microphone that could be used in gameplay; the [[Pols Voice]] in ''The Legend of Zelda'' was affected by the player blowing into the microphone. | The '''Famicom''', short for "Family Computer", was the Japanese version of the NES.
