The Sharp Nintendo Television (in North America under the name Game Television marketed) is a television with built-licensed Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) or Family Computer (Famicom) supplied by Sharp was developed. The device was originally published in Japan under the name My Computer TV C1 (mostly for short Sharp C1 or just C1 , Japanese : マ イ コ ン ピ ュ ー タ テ レ ビ C1, Hepburn : Mai Konpyuta Terebi C1 ) in 1983 and was also available in North America from 1989 . Since the device offered a slightly better picture quality than TVs with a separately connected NES, it was used by computer game magazines at the time to take screenshots of NES games . Revised NES controllers were included with the system . The concept of the system was continued with the Super Famicom Naizou TV SF1 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) and the Super Family Computer (Super Famicom).

The device was available in two versions with a 14- or 19-inch screen for 93,000 and 145,000 yen, respectively.
