Finds (Famicom/FDS)

[JC]

Some Konami carts have holes. I don't know why. Might have something to do with opening the cart.

[AB Positive]

taking a shot in the dark - worse comes to worse it's a parts system but if I can fix it (which I've been known to do in my time for other systems...)

1000 yen? Used my discount I have through JGS to get a test disk - Shogi... which I hope to learn anyway so I'll pay $6 shipped for it... Here's hoping I luck out on it...

[JC]

Nice. Looks like you use SMJ, too? I tried it out for the first time recently. Now I see "cha" everywhere, which used to be "chaos" just a week ago. Yahoo! following eBay, I guess.

Good luck with that Disk System. I hate the FDS...I've got two and they never work for too long before something goes wrong.

[keiffer01]

Still got mine JC and it plays like a charm. I really like the disk system, since you can buy some really great games and japan only games for almost dirt cheap prices on ebay. And most of them come in lots that end for only about 10 -20$

I love my Twin Famicom, too. I play disks almost every day and haven't had a problem yet. The stand-alone disk systems seem like they'd be more prone to breaking. Shit, since I said that, my belt's probably gonna snap...

[manuel]

According to Murphy's law, yes, your belt will snap when you least expect it.

I'm a tech, so I actually don't mind if it's not working... as long as it's fixable. Then perhaps I can practice and offer FDS fixing as a service

how my warped mind works

just to be on the safe side I have one twin famicom and two stand alone fds drives (all working).

Love the disk system.

Here is Mario 8 WOOTTT and another pirate cart





both were birthday gifts!

[nurd]

I saw the auction for a cart that looks just like the one in the box. It was a BIN, I forgot to. No I didn' forget. I'm broke.

   

[JC]

I love how NTSC or TV-Game is upsidedown.

[FamicomFreak]

Yeah it's weird I might put the mario 8 cart in that box lol!

[thegreatgonzo]

Any good games in that 7 in 1 cart?

[nurd]
