Anyone have any info about this console?
Been searching the web but cant find any.
I don`t have a clue about computer games but found it in a box of toys i bought at an auction in Sweden.
Good Boy Computer Game FX-168A
it's a NOAC (Nintendo-On-A-Chip) clone system with a multigame cart (usually 9999-in-1, with about 10 to 15 different games) and horrible controllers. it was designed to resemble the NES PC-Engine console, and is really shoddily constructed.
like all NOAC clones, the graphics are prone to glitches, incorrect colours and the sound will tend to be at the wrong pitch; some games may not run, and some will run in a broken manner. Conversely, some games (from China) will only run on such NOAC systems.
I wouldn't suggest using it for daily use: it's more of a curiosity item. If you want to play FC games, you want a genuine Famicom system... These clone systems usually were sold at flea markets and at importer shoppes for very little money; sometimes as little as €10.
The game cart, if it doesn't simply have the usual ten games repeated 100 times or more, may be of more use to you and should run on a real Famicom. it will not run properly on a NES, as the NES systems in Sweden are PAL and the Famicom games are NTSC, so even with an adapter it will play too fast.
If you ever want to get a Famicom to work in Sweden, you can buy a Hong-Kong (PAL), genuine Nintendo Famicom or convert a Famicom to A/V output for use on a television or monitor with A/V input. I sell both pre-build and un-built kits for this if you aren't familiar with building amplifiers, and I sell bare PCBs if you want to make it entirely yourself. :bomb:

That's if you're lucky. A lot of them only have about 6 games on them. :(
Indeed: I'm reminded at the moment of the pirate cart named 'Super 1-in1'. :bomb:

That's so awesome. ;D
1 in 1. :crazy:
Dziękuję MWK! That's the one I remembered seeing here.
Do you still have that beauty (or any Super 1/2-in-1 carts)? ;D
I wouldn't mind sticking something like that in my showcase to illustrate how absurd some pirate games can be and the entirety of the pirate multicart mindset. :bomb:
Proszę Bardzo Xious! ;)
I don't have it anymore. I sold it to someone here a long time ago but I don't remember who.
As for that 1/2 in 1 - it'd be pretty simple I guess - just brake your PCB in half and... there you go ;-)
edit:: Exactly 133MHz :crazy:
Either that or just PRG data - graphics sold separately! :crazy:
Kinda neat. Famiclones come in many flavors. Have fun with it... that is rule #1.
Oh boy! 1 in 1!
