Hi!

Im trying to make a compilation of series & sitcom's characters playing videogames (I have from Jessica Fletcher to Larry and his girls in "Three's Company") I wonder if there's any episode were Mike, Ben or any other character play the NES in the living room or something... Any clue?

I seize the opportunity to say hello to this forums... This is Dany from Spain

I may have imagined it somewhere, but I think I remember an episode where Ben was playing video games in the living room. I want to say Jason played with him.

Maybe I'm thinking of a different show though....

During the final season, there were a few minutes of Mike and Luke playing video games together. Unfortunatly, that is all I can remember at the moment.

I can't name any specific episodes, but I know that there are a few of Ben playing video games in the living room. I haven't seen the show in a while, but I'd probably recognize an episode it if I saw it again.

In season 2 "Jason's Ribs", Mike and Ben are playing a baseball video game. Also, in season 3 "This Is Your Life", ben is playing video games.

I'm pretty positive Ben is seen playing video games at some point- I'm thinking maybe even in the 1st. season. I'd have to check...
But so many shows depict characters playing a fictional video game system and it's hard to determine when it's supposed to be an actual video game system they're using, like the NES.
However, I can think of one example offhand where the Nintendo Entertainment System shows up.
In "The Wall" episode of MacGyver, MacGyver is seen playing "Blades of Steel" (one of my all time favorite ice hockey games!) for the NES toward the end of the episode.
