This nine-minute December 30th, 1988 TV news report from MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour on PBS describes how Nintendo of America revived the once-dead video game market with its NES console. A rare look inside Nintendo of America in Redmond, WA including its assembly factory, R&D labs and game play counselor office.

Child psychologist Laura Kastner is also interviewed concerning her theories on how video games may consume a child's time, and if parents should question the amount of gameplay time their child has.
