New member wanting to know pros/cons of each Fami

[nerdynebraskan]

The pros and cons have been laid out well in previous posts already, but I'll just chime in with how much I love my AV Famicom. It's my recommendation for anyone who can afford one. It's the finest 8-bit console ever built by Nintendo, on either side of the Pacific.

Well said!  There's a reason everyone wants them!

AV Famicom + 2 USA dogbone controllers + Everdrive N8 + HDTV = Many hours of 8 bit goodness.  It makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

I personally much prefer the NES controllers, but the good thing with the AV Famicom is that it's so set up and play ready.  I guess all Famicoms are in a sense - but I mean that you have a great picture and set up without having to do any mod work at all.

Thanks to senseiman I'm getting an AV Famicom on my way within my budget.  Here comes Castlevania III and Super Contra and other shooting games.

Now I need a NES to FC converter, I just don't want to pay money for a FDS just to play Zanac!
