Title: PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
Post by: alex_A on May 03, 2015, 12:57:51 pm
Hello guys!! I just recently bought a famicom from eBay and it doesn't work correctly.. I cleaned a cart, cart connector, checked the board, and all of the other common problems but it seems to be ok.. Does anyone have a replacement famicom motherboard or know a website or place to buy the ic's?? Thanks :)

Sorry if you already tried this, but did you turn your TV to channel 95/96 (if it has them)? You might have to connect it to a VCR or an older TV if your TV doesn't have it.

I have a cheap extra board up for sale if you can't resolve this problem. However, this board doesn't have the attached RF board.

There are so many things that could be wrong on it.

If you buy a junk console you get a junk console.

If it was described as "junk, not tested, probably not working" i very doubt he can get refund. In other words you've got what you paid for.

Paypal will refund regardless, whoever is in fault.
