Title: Missing pin on extension port?
Post by: supermetriodbros on August 22, 2012, 06:19:27 am
Recently during my trip to new jersey I have been poking around the one game I have sought after since I got my famicom, family basic. They are expensive, but I remembered the extension port on my famicom is missing a pin... I don't know if this needs a fix or if it is a problem. Will I need to repair it to use the family basic peripherals? If so, how?

Depends on which pin it is. Can you post a pic?

Sorry, I cant. I return home tomorrow or the next day so I'll post then. I think it was in the top half towards the right, but I'm not totally sure.
