Pretty much what I've done today. Going back to it soon, just watching the cricket.. Had a blast. I'm hoping to buy contra next week rolling thunder, ice hockey and smb3 are in the post as well ...

The guy who did the mod, said he'd been tinkering with the way the famicom twin is done.. Or something like that, said he'd pretty much got rid of the jail bars ... I've just fired up Spartan x...my cam is rubbish to snap a crt...but the image is stunning. It's crisp and colourful and no jail bars. Can't argue with that for a composite av out. Scored over 500, 000 on my first go...although I hammered this back in the day.

Just picked an av Modded unit. I'll buy an Rgb console when I got more money.. But for now - super happy! Famicom Friday!

I still find it special to play on original hardware, with original controllers on a crt. I do not have a problem with emulation or the everdrive...I think they're great fwiw. I was born is 75, so was near the beginning of the video gaming. I played the Atari as a mere child as my friend had older brothers, so they had one. I have room for both modern gaming and retro, but, I prefer retro. I own a whole host of mainstream console releases, the best thing I ever decided to do was, set one console up at a time, not only does it not interfere with my ocd, I just play what's set up, either with a main game, or a few releases. When I'm done for a bit, I pop that one away and set another up. I also know what to look for in a retro game that I'll enjoy. The magnificent internet! I do take chances, but for what I ideally want to play, I can just buy the original game for original system, if it's too expensive, cart only... I'm not a snob in anyway, and I guess this goes without saying, but it really is horses for courses. We can't all see the same vision by default...I might be talking scanlines here

Picked up a few famicom bits

Just completed shadow warriors. Was a blast. Nowhere near as hard as the Nes masterpiece..but, a very decent gameboy game. 1 manable would be a good challenge. Really would like to pick up Belmonts revenge or double dragon next

Thank you, sir! Most of my American ps1 software has came from EBay Usa..although, I got my rival schools about ten (maybe) years off a uk seller...now I want to set it up...! (I just have one retro console set up at a time) although, I've been known to change it a few times in a day, depending on my mood. Right now it's my super fami, I only just got a super gameboy.. Worth an ask though..I've done that myself...and got lucky

Sorry mate, I revisit these and my crash bandicoot trilogy every year or so.

Thank you sir...and as easy as that ...Ty

Super gameboy just arrived!

Thank you guys I just watched a video, said the retron hd will not play famicom games without an adapter.. Anything out there that will play famicom out of the box. Thank you.

Hiyas guys... I've found a shop that sells Rgb famicom consoles. I'm going to need to save (unless anything I'm selling - sells!) Any one recommend a clone that will play original games.... Thank you. This is just a short-term solution...so just looking for a cheap option for now.

I'm sure I read it's in the US and Japanese store,...not ideal, but easy enough to do..albeit a bit of a pain. Edit...checked...yes it is (jpn and us)
