I've heard of the Famicom "Pulse Line" of games released in Japan shortly after the launch of the Family Computer. Is there anything special about these games? Is there a North American equivalent of this line? How may "Pulse Line" games were released?
Just after the release of the Famicom in Japan, Nintendo released a collection of games with the same label design known informally as the "Pulse Line" of games. One could deduce that Nintendo believed the best marketing strategy for new games was to keep the game label design consistent across multiple titles. Later, Nintendo would create custom artwork for the labels on their cartridges.
