Title: Power-Joy carts (PJ-008, PJ-001)
Post by: dylan727 on March 07, 2009, 01:19:08 pm
What different versions of the Power-Joy Carts are available?
I have a Power-Joy cart that is different than the one listed on Famicom World yet has the same label (http://famicomworld.com/Pirated/Power_Joy_008_PIR.htm (http://famicomworld.com/Pirated/Power_Joy_008_PIR.htm)). These are the Power Joy carts I have.

Those are the only two carts that I've confirmed. Nice to see the PJ-001 game list, though. I've never gotten a chance to see it.

Are you sure that screenshot you have for the PJ-008 cart is the correct one? The PJ-008 cart I have shows 84 in 1 at the top and has Pandamar on it. Yours shows 52 in 1 and the list doesn't include Pandamar and only includes 51 games.

I never thought there were more PJ-XXX carts.

I only know one PJ-XXX cart, and it features Tanuki Mario, Frog Luigi and homosexual intercourse ::).

Yup, that's the right screen shot for the PJ-008 I was disappointed because when I bought it I had hoped it would have the Pandamar hack on it, I bought these from an eBay seller in Australia so maybe they have different versions in the countries they were sold.

And sorry the game lists were missing a few games I guess I copied them wrong the ones that were missing are shown in bold.

i have found another power joy cart, it is identical to the one seen on the site, however it reads pj-001, it must be first in the power joy series. its a 64-in-1 with some repeats, its also light, and i got it for only $2.00 at a flea market ;D.

pics coming soon.

Hmm. That and 008 are still the only two confirmed. I'm starting to think they didn't make a 002-007 or higher than 008.

I've seen eBay auctions that have PJ-006.

Probably the PJ-008 cart since it says it has 84 games.

I have one on the way, but am not sure what cart it is. If it's the -008 cart, it'll be up for sale since I already have it.

I'm digging this thread up just to mention about another (weird) PJ Supermax 30-in-1 cart :

(http://mwk.netne.net/pics/supermax-1.jpg)

Unfortunately either it's broken or works with PJ famiclone ONLY, because I've tried it on every one of my famiclones + Twin Famicom and... nothing... zippo...

Maybe someone is interested in having it for some additional test or something (especially the owners of mentioned PJ console) ?

I believe that cart uses some weird OneBus format, which would explain why most Famiclones can't run it. I'd take the cart, but I don't have a PowerJoy myself.

Cheetahmen is right.
It's designed for a onebus famiclone/powerjoy

If you were to sell it, how much would you want?

Post by: mrdomino on August 12, 2011, 09:11:23 am
Yeah I have a powerjoy with that same cart, it does only work on OneBus based famiclones. Not all Power Joys are OneBus though, the original model isn't. only the Supermax (doesn't say "Supermax" on it, but it has rumble on the gun trigger and no built-in games) or Navigator joystick AFAIK.

there are a few other OneBus clones out there that will probably run it, like the Mega Arcade Action/Arcade Action II, EZi, later Subors, the Generation NEX I think, and Yobo's Factor 5 & FC3plus (although the latter two are 72 pin and im not sure if OneBus carts work in a normal converter)
