    Default Nintendo NES Limited Launch - Also Import Quota?

    I'm also wondering if Nintendo's NES launch was initially limited to New York City and then Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and other major cities across the U.S. in 1985 and most of 1986 because of the import quota (also known as voluntary import restraints) which places restrictions on how many goods Japanese companies could legally sell here per year?
