Where do you get Famiclones. I need one that will work on a NTSC TV or a cheep way to play Famicom games on a American NES. I have looked at Chinese wholesale web sites but I could not find any that work on NTSC Televisions.
Depends on where you live. I can get brand new but crappy quality Famiclones from local sellers of cheap Chinese goods, or better ones if I look around flea markets and such.
Do you know where you could get a Famiclone in the Las Vegas area.
eBay is full of them I think.
I have tried looking on eBay, I have not found any under $100. I think I might be using the wrong search terms.
Here would be two:

I can also sell you a Famiclone if you want. PM me for details.

I can sell sell you brand new Micro Genius famiclones much less than 100 USD.
Why would you shell out $40 for a Famiclone when you could buy an actual Famicom for that much or less? Just wondering...
here's one for $20, no idea what the quality's like though, or if its NTSC or PAL:

Looks like it might be good. I think I have something by the same company. It's a game boy advance clone. The name and logos are the same.
the focalprice one is PAL, meaning it wont play on NTSC (North american) Tv's
i found a NTSC after searching for a bit
It is $29.99

Not exactly sure why this topic was bumped, after so long, but yeah I can get anyone who wants one a Famiclone too. I have a few for sale, basically unused (I had started out collecting clones but then discovered that they took up a lot of space) and could get others too.
from junk bin
I would like to see what you are selling. I like the clones modeled after the original Famicom.
Just get a Retro Duo with a Fami Adaptor

these are the only 2 i can find online for sale well i did find like 4 others for sale on other sites but the sellers wanted like you to buy like 2000+
http://kanrio.com specializes in famiclones they even sell a multi cart.
A Retro Duo is what I used to have.
Recently, eBay has had Famiclones for $25-$50.
One being sold right now for a reasonable price would be this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-NTSC-Video-game-console-SIMBA-Dendy-Famiclone-NES-8-bit-Famicom-260-games-/262030273854?hash=item3d0238ad3e:g:E3EAAOSw3ydV5fqy (http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-NTSC-Video-game-console-SIMBA-Dendy-Famiclone-NES-8-bit-Famicom-260-games-/262030273854?hash=item3d0238ad3e:g:E3EAAOSw3ydV5fqy)
I have a lot of Famiclones I'd gladly bundle with games and sell, if folks here are interested
