Sharp Nintendo Television (19SV111) - Gaming Historian

Oh man, imagine if Sony did something like this with a Trinitron and a PS1.

What's funny? Nintendo's first arcade games, Radar Scope, Firebird, etc, had an ENTIRE off the shelf from a department store, 19 inch Sharp tv, cabinet and all, inside the cabinet. It connects to regular old 100 AC outlet inside the cabinet. Then, with the success of DK, they got rid of the tv cabinet, installed new brackets + slid the tv into place....now they use both Sharp and Sanyo.

I bought one of these from Kmart when I was a kid. I still have it complete with all feet, the two original controllers, the tv remote and the operation manual. Serial number 529644.

The only add I ever saw for it and the only way I ever knew about it was contest to win one. An now defucked local radio station and the local Fox Network had 20 to giveaway, that I remember was the only way to get one.

If its hard and expensive to find in Japan, it probably almost impossible to be found at other unknown countries like my country Malaysia. I really love these classic products <3

I still have mine with remote and all. Works great!

Great video

Your videos are aging extremely well

Try $1700 in 2022.

I have at least 1 of the game controllers for the tv system they are so cool (i didnt know they were related to the system until recently or that it existed lol)

There are actually a lot of inaccuracies in this video. This was never sold at Sears it was a K mart exclusive. Also they weren't allowed to advertise it until after the holiday season the Gameboy had just come out and nintendo didn't want to compete with themselves for sales. The name nintendo is nowhere on it except on the back where you can't see it Also there were never 2 models there is Just the 19SV111 the other one was never actually made. Nintendo didn't even want to be associated with this. This is a Sharp exclusive. Nintendo never advertised it and won't even admit that it exists.

I still have one of these

I still have one!!

$250-$500? Man the difference 7 years makes. Things go $2k with all 4 feet now

I saw one of these when I was a kid, I saw this in a video game store as a set up. It was pretty cool, and I did play on it.

It’s a ridiculous idea.

U looked like u were scared of the spider on your camera lens for a moment there

interesting how you never actually said what the price point was but you probably couldn't find it anywhere and you did give examples of what it could actually cost so at least we can speculate

I remember a tv that the Nintendo part was built into the top of the tv. It was a 21 or 26 inch tv. Watching the whole episode, I should stress it was for the nes. Not snes.

urkrain poggers!!!!!

Was it JVC or Pioneer that had the LD player with a built in Genesis?

I am lucky enough to have one of these oddities

Just saw an episode of pawn stars where Corey got his facts mixed up and robbed a poor girl of hers ☹

Fast forward 2021.
$1800 on ebay

19SC111 is a typo. It’s no different from the 19SV111.

The SC model was a typo and the photo of it is fake as has been proven by Nintendrew this week...

What was the MSRP?

I actually saw one of these in a video game shop in Florida. It was on the table in the back, and I guess it was broken. I should have offered the guys like $30 to take it off their hands just to have one.

Hey Norm I know you are looking for opportunities to make corrections to your older videos.
Recently there was a video put out by Nintendrew who took a good amount of time to do some research especially about the 19SC111 model.
His research seems to be contradicting some of your statements in this video.

So if you are looking for any video to "reboot" - maybe this would be a good idea?

Some people replace the feet by 3D printing them and re-attaching those. Oh yeah and the 19SC111 was a typo.

At least the TV can be used without the remote control. It is without a doubt the most annoying feature of modern tvs.

My grandma had an old sharp TV for years and it had that exact remote ill never forget it I used it everything I went over

What is the best version 19SV111 or 19SC111?

guys look, its the switch pro

Looks like the price is over $1500-$1600 now for the tv on recent Ebay prices. These are very detailed videos. It's impressive that you have been able to make so many documentary style videos of vintage gaming.

Been loving your content as of late

never knew this beast existed, that said these tv combos always worry about what happens if TV goes out.

But sharp even made the sharp mz series and the sharp x1

I had the opportunity to play the later model of this tv made for hotels and retail stores only, didn't have the special controller so I had to use a regular nes controller, it looked and sounded fantastic and I played some good old contra 1 on it

This doesn't include the next generations, the first of which had a table built in under the television, and the second which had a house built around the game system, television, and table. The latter was still cheaper than the original release.

We actually have a Sharp Roku TV in my house.

I want a real NES cart blank book like the one used in the logo so much.

The greatest tv ever made

Anyone remember kids would wanna come to your house just because you were the kid who had cable tv at home lol
