Family Basic is a programming tool and utility/creation software for the Famicom. It was available with the Famicom Data Recorder and Famicom Keyboard. It is actually the successor to an earlier version of the software called Playbox BASIC; bundled in a cartridge with the My Computer Televi C1 (a television by Sharp with a built-in Famicom also known as the Game Television in North America, Sampo C1 in Taiwan or in general as the Sharp Nintendo Television).
Gameplay
It allows the user to program games in BASIC, specifically in a language called "NS-HUBASIC". In addition to this, there are added minigames with some exclusive to the V3 revision, including Super Mario series characters and the penguin Gurin, from Binary Land.[1] Programs from other media can be loaded from the Famicom Data Recorder (tapes) or typed in manually using the Famicom Keyboard. In addition to the keyboard, games also support the Famicom's built-in microphone.
Furthermore, Family BASIC includes a Message Board for typing messages, a Calculation Board for performing mathematical calculations, and a Music Board for composing music.
