looks pretty cool if it's legit and works well...has anyone seen/heard/tried this out?

 

[dafoomie]

They're a reputable site, and yeah, its legit. Play-asia carries them too. A bit expensive for an NES for me, though.

Keep in mind that the clear thing you see is supposed to represent an NES cartridge, thats where it'll go. There is no clear thing on the console.

Why does it have SNES-like controllers?

 

[neonglow]

It has 4 face buttons so I'm assuming 2 of them are turbo buttons.

 

[Unassuming Local Guy]

If this thing will sustain massive beatings and come out in as great a shape as my SNES, $50 is well worth it.

Does anyone know if this thing uses the same programming logic as the NES, or if they emulated it?

 

[mkelehan]

If I didn't already have 2 top-loading NESes, I'd go for that.

Do you mean the infamous "NES on a chip" that they use in all those 88-in-1 TV games?

 

[dafoomie]

If you can read Japanese, you can potentially find out for yourself.

What's up with the 9-pin controller ports? I just noticed that.

I decided to get one myself. I love my top loader but the fact that I cant hook it up thru AV jacks has always bothered me.

Top Loaders don't have AV? I know the old model does.
