(The following photo is from 133MHz.  I did not directly link to it because my malware detector on my PC doesn't like the hosting site of the picture.  Instead, I screen captured the picture from a sandboxed browser and hosted it myself.)



A few questions:

1) Is the above photo taken from an official Nintendo (word processing?) program that is being ran through a Famiclone or is it pirate software?  What is it called?

2) The above photo is obviously just a screenshot, but is there any way to browse the internet on a famiclone or an actual Famicom?

3) Is there a PC program that emulates this Famicom word processor?

4) Does a mod or adapter exist that allows a Famicom keyboard to hook up to a PC?

Thanks!   Cheesy

It comes from the family basic  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrr1MUAx4sw run on a custom famiclone

2. It should be possible if someone worked to install a linux system on it. http://hitmen.c02.at/html/tools_contiki.html
There is no network hardware for the NES, but there is for the famicom (such as the famicom modem). So it could be possible.

If it is possible for Apple ][, it should be possible for Famicon
I guess network hardware should not be a problem - you have to build custom cart with more RAM anyway

Young Doc: No wonder this circuit failed. It says "Made in Japan".
Marty McFly: What do you mean, Doc? All the best stuff is made in Japan.
Young Doc: Unbelievable

If you want a thing done well, do it yourself.

Gimmick? Damn good, don't be scared to pay, what seller asked!
