Title: Possibly a knock off Famicom
Post by: tomservo on May 20, 2014, 09:48:43 pm
I bought a Famicom recently at some guys stand at a street festival.  It says Computer Game where they normally say Famicom and does not say Nintendo anywhere on it.  I have not used it yet as it came sans an ac adaptor, which I have ordered. Anybody know where it might have originated from?

China? Lol

it definitely looks like a clone to me. I'm no expert though.

I would suspect that's Taiwanese or HK judging from the Traditional Chinese on the gold strip.

It is indeed a clone.  Pictures make it hard to discern anything else though.
