Title: Famicom Disk Multi Games
Post by: okame on October 21, 2012, 04:56:17 pm
I was looking at a You Tube video of Nintendo Famicom bootleg disks that had me wondering something. If I got a Famicom Twin system, which I'm actively trying to do, are there any 31 or 42 or 180 in one bootleg Famicom disks that would work on a Twin or FDS system? I have a 42 in 1 multicart with a Famicom to NES converter that I'm using on my Retron 3, so I'm wondering if I could play an FDS version of a multicart on a Twin.

The short answer would be "no".  There isn't enough space on an FDS disk to facilitate a large number of games.

Meh I have read: Famicom multi-disk games... So I'm stealing your topic with this question - are there any multi-disk games (one game on multiple disks) for the FDS?

2 okame - my version of short answer RTFM! >:(

2 jpx72 - AFAIK standart allow 4 sides 64k each and keep in mind, that you have to toss and flip disks during game.

I believe Nintendo released a few games that were sold separately but were essentially disk 1 and disk 2. I know of the Mukashi Banashi, and Tantei Club games.
