I'm sure he knows very well that his TV is not black and white. Many people on the forums indicated that he's simply using a Chinese Famiclone which outputs PAL instead of NTSC. He just says the TV is black and white because it's easier to deceive people, than to say "PAL video output" which would exclude a large portion of north American collectors.
Not to mention he stops communication with people who don't agree with him absolutely 100% of the time..or people who pay him. >:( So yeah, it's a bad thing. :-\
Hahaha that TV looks like it's from the 2000's, clearly not black and white. What a moron.
Megaman9477? Like, mega man from Famicom World?
Perhaps, I know they are around the same age, and both Canadian. ::)
On another note, I am sad that Kira would rip people off, he seemed very cool. And I traded with him once, and it went smoothly.
Well, I'm personally glad that you all are here to help the community out. Thanks for letting us all know.
Looks interesting would like to buy it, but not sure it's even worth the money spent.
isn't selling clones and pirated software not allowed on ebay to begine with? One time I was trying to sell my Saturn with a region adapter and someone ratted me out to ebay and got my listeing banned :-S

Pirates/Bootlegs/Clones aren't allowed but sometimes eBay doesn't check and some are kept.
To end the non-legitimate auctions it's easy, just report it.

But yea, he is trying to rip people off by saying he used the system on a black and white tv.

The two have never posted from the same IP address. It's possible megaman bought the clone from Kirayamato and is now trying to sell it (since PAL consoles aren't too useful in an NTSC area). He may have simply copy/pasted the old description into the auction.
It's strange that they both are Chinese and live in Canada, though. Maybe Kirayamato accessed FW through a proxy to mask his identity as Megaman.
Edit: The seller lists his location as Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, the same as Kirayamato PM'd me to send his stuff. Maybe they live in the same city, but I highly doubt it.
I don't think most proxy IP addresses point you to a major ISP, so I'm doubtful he's using a proxy.
Even still, Kirayamato hasn't been anywhere near as spammy as megaman. I doubt he would have matured that much in such a short period of time.
Is this guy really a bad person or uneducated which we should stay away from?

Except that Kira logged on here the same day it was posted on eBay, so it is him.
He could have moved to a different location which would explain the difference in IP.
You were logged in the day it was posted to eBay as well. How does that prove anything?
I'll admit there is evidence here, but it's nothing conclusive.

Remember, I am not the one whom first suggested they were the same person. But because of the suggestion, I did a bit of research myself.
Also he hadnt logged on prior to that day in many many months, why did he log on? To get the information the same for his eBay page. Same text and pictures.
Its to close not to be right.
Edit- ...and I knew it had been monthes because ericj posted a feedback that Kirayamoto had ripped him off. Well, I was like "hmmm... I didnt know he was still active, so I checked and it said he hadnt logged on since like January or something like that." and now he has a new log on.I only care because back in the day, Megaman ripped me off.
If it helps, Kira told me he was 15. ::)
Since they both share megaman9477 as Megaman's Hotmail email address and Kirayamato's photobucket account (http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm297/megaman9477) they have gotta be the same person. Who else is gonna choose "9477"?
Besides, who would need to use a proxy or change ISPs? Perhaps someone whose IP address was banned. Makes sense.
The special free game Kirayamoto said he was giving me is called "Metroid Zero Mission 2." I bet it's the same "freebie" Megaman gave to the "yongest" members here.
Yup, when I got a package from Kira, the freebie was Metroid on a floppy disk.

Okay, if Kirayamato is using megaman's email address for one of his other accounts, then I'd believe it. That's all I was asking for, really, was something more concrete.

Kirayamato isn't using a proxy, it's just a different IP from anything that megaman used. We only ever issued a temp-ban to megaman which has long-since expired. There's no need for him to use a proxy.
He's a no good user neither seller.
Not trustable and so he shouldn't be able to make sells.
As stated before he's 15 years old (right?) at this age teens still don't take sales seriously, and actually play with the situation.
Yeah, he told me he was 15. But I am 15 and I have made plenty of successful sales. Just because you're yong doesnt mean you're too stupid to send stuff in the mail.

Night, what the hell is your problem? Why are you insulting me? I'm not 15 years old, I'm older than you, have some respect!
And I wasn't talking about myself but "Mega Man" who has made bad communication and ripped people.
Some teenagers can actually behave themselves, others just like to jack off.
FamicomRetroGamer -- he was talking about megaman/Kira, not you. :-*
Yup, I didn't mean any offense by it. :P I was just trying to say that not all younger people are bad dealing with.
My bad then, misunderstood the message as you wrote "you're" and not "he".
Btw, whoa Megaman's English is pretty messed up, he could've possible used a translator but we all know that Chinese to English translations don't work. My guess is that he knew a bit of English which is coarse but understandable.
i'd love one of these famiclones!

No problem. ;) I'm not the best at wording stuff.
And also, Kira ripped off former member Famiac of 50 dollars. I wonder if Kira will speak up and tell his side.... probably not. :-\
If he paid via PayPal he could/can file a complain against him for stealing his money literally.
I'd be pretty pissed off if that happen to me.
IIRC, megaman hasn't been on since 2008, and was 13 then. kirayamoto said he was 15, so it would make sense. Wow. That's really...strange.
I bet Kira joined right after megaman was first banned, too. Since megaman's profile is deleted, I don't have access to that info.
:0 megaman wasn't slain

WRONG! now be quiet.
Sorry guys i believe
"i ripped 2 people off" for a while. I got sent back to Asia by my parents a while ago cause of my international student crap got temporay expired. I still have the 2 items boxed with mailling address in the closet cause i didnt have time to send it out. I have to wait 2 more months to go back to canada. When im back i'll send the items to the owners. Sorry again everyone i was really busying with studies so i never really got a chance to reply you guys here, thus the internet speed is soo slow here.
megaman9477? you mean the photobucket account, what about him? he goes to my school, he's a grade lower than me, a friend of mine. He used to like gameboy and NES stuff but he quited i think. I was using his photobucket account cause that was in his house. But thanks to him he was the one who introduced me to famicoms.
btw: there is ALOT of weird famiclone here, i'll probebly buy some before i come back, i'll post some pictures up here soon.
While that may all be true, if you had time to log on here and grab the information for your eBay auction and sell something from Canada months after you stopped communication, you had time to send a PM and let us know about your situation.
Your explanation really set off my BS detector. No one really concentrates that much on studies. Besides, a lot of schoolwork requires the internet. Why you decided to not communicate before and are now deciding to is something only you truly know. Like most things, I'm sure the answer will become apparent with time.
well you see, in China not every household holds a computer just let you know, and you have no idea how hard it is to get in university.
i live in my grandma's house and she obvious don't have a computer. What we do is go to a store called the internet cafe if you want to use a computer. School work here is plane textbook pencil and notebook, we dont do research for school work unlike in america where every classroom holds a smartboard 7 PC..
My internet got cancelled before i left Canada, but it really depends if you believes it or not. But again. if im a spamer, WHY THE HECK would i come back a year after to return the stuff i own people? And i've made alot of sussesful transactions here in famicom world as a merchant, WHY THE HECK would i ruin my credit here by spaming 2 people after "hundreds" of susessful transaction?
