Title: Expansion port cover for Famicom AV
Post by: Whiteboy on June 16, 2017, 03:15:10 am
Hello everyone, I'm new here. Can't believe I didn't know about this site before, I feel like I'm among my people!

Anyway, I recently got the grey Japanese Famicom A/V. There was no port cover for its FDP expansion port. Any idea where I could buy one or something really similar? VGA port covers are the wrong size. Thanks.

I would recommend poking around in some older threads, if memory serves someone thought about using a 3D printer to create these tiny pieces.

Also, welcome to the site! Stay awhile! :-*

You can buy them from here (http://gamedoctorhk.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2037) but I feel it's a bit overpriced maybe.

Edit: Oh wait, just realized you mean AV Famicom. Those were a different colour right? My bad.
