Man! 133mhz if I had the money I would get you 2 FDS one that works and you won't touch and another one that you can open up and operate on.

I am planing on getting a fammycom and a disk system but after watching fammycom dojo, I found out the games could be over written,

Is there some sort of device where I can write over a game if it is not the game says it to be? and could I also write Regular cart games to a disk? Like mother 1 but the English version?

thanks guys

Are you doing that "Fammycom" thing on purpose?  Because it's really annoying.

That might be a disk writer you're thinking of, which would be at several stores in Japan that would, for a small fee, rewrite a disk to another game that was selected from a menu.  These units have been extremely hard to find since they were retired, and would be expensive both in actual price and shipping if you did find one somewhere.  
I like to glitch old VHS tapes and turn them into visuals for live music events. Check out what I'm working on - www.instagram.com/tylerisneat

What are you talking about?  Am i spelling it wrong?

Also what  I'm talking about is remaking my own disks, like with a computer I have an old computer I could use if that is what I need

He is probably spelling it phonetically. Give the guy a break.  :)

As for how to write disks, there's plenty of info here on the site. Search around and ask any specific questions that you're confused about.

Phonetic spelling can be hilarious. I think I have the right to say that as an Asian.

Any one have a guide on how to write a image of a famicom game to a disk, also how to backup your disk?  I currently own two famicom disks and would like to back them up just in case something happens to them.  They currently work but don't want them to die when I show someone the system / games.
