Pictionary is claiming to be the first NES game for any family. That is a bold claim. My family was a mixed, consisting of Blonde women, Geeky Dads, Punks, New Wave teenager, Grandma Bikers and Sunglass-wearing Bulldogs and we enjoyed lots of other games on the NES before Pictionary. Of course we sued for false claims.
Unfortunately my class action lawsuit against the NES Pictionary people never went anymore since my family was the only one who bought a copy.
