Hi UglyJoe, thank you for your swift reply.
So is there a Bomberman 1 to Farmicon aswell then? Then you might know if they are on carts or FDS to Famicon??And where can I buy them?
Thanks

Bomberman 1 is a cart game. It shows up on ebay now and then.

And it's "Famicom". Sorry about that, irritates me :crazy:
Hahaha ... no sweat! I just saw it myself, sorry! It is almost 2:30 AM here so ....

Bomberman 1 was also released on disk for the Disk System. It's not too hard to find for sale online either.
Oh yeah FDS too! I missed that.

Hi and thank you for your good info on my threads/topics. So you're from Sweden too? Nice :star:
The you also might know what I need cord/adapterwise to plug in and play a Famicon/TwinFamicon/FDS into a 230 W outlet?
Yup I'm Swedish! ;D
For Famicom or AV Famicom it's easiest to get a general AC-DC adapter. Just be sure all the specifics match the Famicom:
Input: 220-240 V AC 50Hz (or 50-60Hz)
Output: 10 V DC, and at least 850 mA
Polarity: + ---C--- - (center negative)
Barrel size: Outer Diameter 5.5 mm, Inner Diameter 2.1 mm
The easiest is to get a PAL Megadrive Model-1 adapter (finns på Tradera), it matches all these requirements and is of good quality. Just make sure it's for model-1 and not model-2 or anything.
You could also get a step-down adapter (220-240 V AC to 100 V AC) and use the stock AC-DC adapter. But I've never seen one in Sweden (only stepping down to 120 V) and the stock adapters are usually not working very well anymore anyway.
Twin Famicom has totally different specifics, so you need a different adapter. Study this guide: http://www.famicomworld.com/forum/index.php?topic=6933.0
Famicom Disk System has pretty much the same power specs as the Famicom but there's really no need to get a separate adapter for it. Just use good batteries, they lasts for years.

WOW! Det var inte lite,det. Du verkar rejält insatt i detta, och det tackar jag för ;D
One has to be polite to the readers that might follow this, so we use english in public.
I will look into that nice guide you linked me, and I think I will try to get a Twin Famicon and a AV Famicon aswell ..... when and if I found someone within my price range. And then I will try to find/trade/buy some hot games (carts/discs, boxed/unboxed) from the "good'ol'days"
Oh yes, one more thing. I get it that you might have one of these three consoles home, right? ... How do they work with(or against) LCD/LED flatscreens and TVs?
And thanks again for your brilliant info and help here, hat's off for you :star: :star: :star:

No problem!
I have AV modded original Famicom and Famicom Disk System so I can play all carts and disks for Famicom. It works OK on an LCD TV although it's not as good as on a good old CRT. Zapper games and ROB (just called Robot in Japan) won't work on a LCD/LED/Plasma though. It's a problem because it's not so easy to find a CRT with NTSC support in Sweden nowdays.

I have this "old" TV stasched, but I can't find any specs, more than on the backside (pls view links) Would this big heavy Panasonic do good with AV Famicon/Twin Famicon/FDS, you think?
I do of course have 2 LED and 2 LCD tv screens aswell.

Tack o bock! ;D
You can google for the model number on the backside and see if you can find info.
I found the service manual and in the specifics there it says it supports NTSC through the AV-ports! Yaay! Not through RF-port (antenningången) though but that's normal. That means you probably can't use a red & white Famicom unless it's AV-modded, since they are RF only.
You also have RGB which is great for systems like Super Famicom that supports that.

Sounds perfect, this TV set was on its way to the disposal container the coming week, BUT no more, this one (thanks to your eminent knowledge) I do keep now. Please advice, can I buy this cable and use it with a Twin Famicon, AV Famicon and a US NTSC SNES?

And as you also informed, I need to buy the right AC/DC Adapter here in Sweden, so I wont "burn" the consoles. Would this PAL Megadrive Model-1 work on a US SNES too?Aswell as for the Twin F and AV F?
Or do I need to buy two "step-down" adapters if I'm gonna use the belonging console adapters. I might be very thick with all my questions, and I'm so very greatful for your information. But I need all this to "kick in" as a totally novis in this area.
And I will also need a wall plug conector aswell.
Sorry about all questions, but I want to do it right from the beginning. Thanks again,
/ Titus ;D
Famicom/NES has no RGB output, only composite (AV) so that RGB cable will probably not work on any Famicom (or maybe it autodetects composite, I don't know). Lot's of info abour RGB and what RGB cable to use with what system here: http://retrorgb.com/. A composite cable usually comes with the system so don't worry about that yet.
PAL Megadrive Model-1 should technically work on a US SNES but I heard the plug size is different so I'm not sure. It won't work on a Twin either for reasons I stated before. It should work on an AV Famicom though. Study the guide I posted before and ask about things you don't understand.
I don't recommend getting a step-down just for a Famicom system. They are expensive and the original adapters may already have gone bad anyway in which case you need to get a new one either way.
