>What did the NES/Famicom feel like at the time?
I am not exaggerating when I say that it was, at the time, like having an arcade game in your home. It was the video game equivalent of Star Wars 1977. Keep in mind that Super Mario Bros. was already in arcades in two different forms in at least three different cabinets.

>What was it like seeing all these franchises like Mario, Zelda, Metroid, DQ, FF, popular puzzlers, etc.?
We took them for granted, like everything.

>Did it feel like an evolutionary leap forward?
By far. Before video games were more of an idea; Nintendo basically made it possible to play with cartoons. And that is how it felt then just as strongly as one feels playing Super Mario Wonder or whatever it's called.
It's all relative.

Unironically, if you can master Super Mario Bros., especially the Vs. version, you can beat anything.

Purple is wrong, accept it or be incorrect and in denial. Have a good day.

Playing video games on phones ought to be illegal.

Inauthentic and mincing.
Nice try, though. It's blue in Vs. Super Mario Bros. (pronounced "brothers" not "brohs") and the Playchoice/PlayChoice 10 NES version.
