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

No need to delete or lock it if you win the auction.  It'll fade away eventually on its own.

I just took out my Stack Up converter (modified it to accept Famicom cartridges [removed the tabs and ground the sides down a little), and tested Castelvania 3 (Akumajou Densetsu) in my NES (using a Game Genie as an extension) and the comparison is not even remotely close--the NES cannot at all produce the audio that is on an advanced audio game like CV3.    Guess I'll need to buy another Stack Up for my collection now  :P (the tabs were what screwed the chipboards in place).

Solder pin 45 from the Famicom side to NES pin 18 on your StackUp converter with a 100k resistor and 1 uF capacitor.
Then open up your NES and solder pin 3 and pin 40 together on the never used expansion slot

and there you go, extended sound on your NES!

Very interesting.  I may even try it, though I'm plenty happy with using famicom games on the famicom and NES games on the NES.  Though compared to a Twin, the NES still has no microphone or way to play Famicom disk games, which has quite a few key famicom games IMO.
