The NES lacked persistent memory in the same way that Atari did. A few NES carts had battery-backed SRAM, but that's not the console itself.
The Amiga had no memory?
No battery backed memory, no, except possibly a battery backed clock. It had plenty of memory (for the time).
Do you mean the Atari 2600? Because all Amigas had either a floppy drive (all of the desktop models) or onboard NVRAM (the CDTV and the CD32).
No I meant the Amiga. I had a 500 and a 1500 so I know them fairly well. But I didn't realise Amiga was a typo.
