@remektheyoshifan103 While I agree it is fun the fact is this, like all NES/Familcones produced after 2003 are NOT illegal, they may be considered unethical since Nintendo receives no $ from their sales in the eye of the law they have been legal since 2003 when Nintendos Famicom patent dates expired. You can check the FAMICLONES article at Famicom world site or google "are famiclones legal?" to see various links confirming this.
@0M9H4X Thanks, rechargeable work fine they are all I use. The trick is to make sure you buy very high capacity rechargeable they are not all they same. I use ones rated between 2500-2650 mah. I cannot tell you how long they last as I have not played them long enough to drain completely and I just do not have the time to do that kind of testing.
omg i soooooooo want one! I have all my nintendo games still but no nintendo and the fact that this not only is portable like gameboy is but it can be hooked into the tv with an adapter! thats awesome man thanks for sharing that treasure of info :)
You should have ran the game video to a capture card of some sort so that we can see the quality without camera and tv factors. I wish you made mention whether or not its accurate in picture color and sound and if there is lag during buisy moments. Some clones play well but lack in accurate output. The wireless light gun is such a big feature i wish you used more to show how well it works. These are just small details that you should consider for a 3rd supplement video.
@SicSolution I know it's been almost a year but I had been sorting through my collection and had a opportunity to test. I tried 2 games (LOW G MAN / SKY SHARK) several codes and they appeared to have no effect at all. Good chance you know this already but I figured since I tested I might as well post the results. The Game Genie booted and I entered codes but they appeared to have no effect on my FC Mobile II OR my new Retron 3. Seems it is not NOAC compatible.
This definitely looks like an improvement on the original. They finally got the B and A button layout correct! I can't imagine how ridiculous someone would look in public with it though lol. Great review!
Great review. The FC Mobil II certainly has imporoved on the original in many ways. I think it looks better too! The flap ain't no big deal I can see how that would break easy.
Yep not bad for the price. I think it would be funny, be out on a bus or somewhere if I see someone on their DS or PSP, whip this out and shove a cartridge in it lol!
The only other I am interested in is the GenMobile Sega handheld. Was not impressed with the review of the RetroGen at least not in comparison but we will have to wait until actually release to compare........
this is illegal but nobody cares cuz its awesome!!! XD

ok, awesome video realy good.
i just have one question. regarding the battery life of the unit.
(not the cotrollers or the zapper) but the unit itself.
how long does it last with full batterys and does it take rechargable ones?
cuz some devices dont, which sucks. sub'd.

Great video I must say. Hey have you tried a Game Genie on this yet? That would make quite a scene if it were to be played in public

Looked like the power switch was giving you some trouble at the top there. Is it tough to switch on or something?

No not really, I kept switching it on/off wondering why it was not displaying until I realized my TV was not set for the proper input................

Could you do a small side-by-side of the guns? Original zapper and the FC2 gun? It's smaller, isn't it?

NOPE!
Because I don't have an original Zapper lol!

Reminds me ... I took the controller and memory card slots off my Wii and put them away ... because I knew otherwise i would just break them myself.
