FC Twin

[kingryan30]

im getting that one where all the games work but two games get bad sound, its called the retro duo

[Retrocorner1234]

Thanks

[Bvon]

I'm getting one of these in a week or so, really excited about it. I grew up on the NES and SNES, so this is really something I'm interested in. Nice review.

[Retrocorner1234]

i like the NES way better hahja so i sold this and got an nes lol

[tombert256]

Of course the real NES is going to be best. However, looking on eBay, you aren't going to find one for very cheap anymore, especially not a toploader. I like the Retro Duo because it has nearly 100% compatibility, and it comes with a one year warranty, something that you probably will not have if you buy a NES.

[tombert256]

I have a "Retro Duo". It cost a bit more, but apparently it has a much higher compatibility.

[Retrocorner1234]

i think your right about that one!

[tombert256]

I also have a Yobo FC thingy. It's pretty cool too, primarily because it supports classic NES controllers (and the Zapper). What really sold me was the fact that it is actually a bit smaller than an NES cartridge.

[Retrocorner1234]

i got one on ebay for $3 haha then i sold it for $30!!!

[Retrocorner1234]

yeah there really cheap

[pblover96]

Do SNES controlers? Also this is good for that one kid ho had a evil wii!

[scarmullet]

The controller is a replication of the original SNES controller, even the connector. You can use your original SNES controllers on this fami-clone.

[Retrocorner1234]

yeah i like the original controllers better

[NinjaNermal]

i sent mine back because p1 slot didnt work for snes games

[SkullBallMovies]

sweet, I purchased this same system last night on eBay and I can't wait to get it!!! I've had a major craving or whatever u wanna call it for NES and SNES games.

[cypphherx]

How do you solve the no screen problem when loading a game?

[Selvir6]

Can anybody tell me does zapper also work for the FC twin?

[Retrocorner1234]

theres a special one you have to get made by YOBO

[jpsplat]

No, can't use any NES stuff on it.

[harrisonakathegame]

know it only takes super nes controllers but there are special ones made for the fc twin there rare you can find them on ebay

[fflamingmoe]

I got one today and it don't play super nintendo games ethere piece of shit.But i can still play my NES games but .

[ytpyay]

If I got an FC Twin I wouldn't even consider a part of my collection cause it's a bootleg piece of shit.

[TheNostalgiaFan]

um kid i am sorry to inform you that fc twins are not new at all

[Retrocorner1234]

There newer than the NES for sure!

[jpsplat]

OK, for everyone asking why the snes/nes games don't work when you got it is because your shipping is crummy and it broke. These things can break worse than the 360 did when it came out.

[Retrocorner1234]

Yeah

[brad321210]

i got one 4 Christmas and my controllers play the snes but not the nes game because i bought a box of nes games factory sealed and tryed them but they dont work

[Retrocorner1234]

did you try all of the buttons?

[brad321210]

um i found out why its was a bad shipment im getting a new one tomorrow what suxs is they gave me one and let me keep mine but the one they gave me only plays nes games

[Retrocorner1234]

At least you can play both types of games.

[brad321210]

tru but its suxs having switch them everytime

[Blackdragon52k]

I don't have an SNES or an NES so I asked my parents for them for Christmas. I think I might be getting this so I want to know if its any good.

[Retrocorner1234]

This is a good system but not as good as the original. I have the originals now=)

[johneymute]

pretty nice as a games collectors item, or just to replace the nes and snes.

and have some fun with just one unit brilliant.

[Retrocorner1234]

Yeah I have an original NES and NES2 I want a snes but never bought one yet

[gamejunkietlc]

does the fc twin require a adapter to play nes games,or do u just put the cartirage(incorrect) in.plz reply

[Retrocorner1234]

No you dont need an adapter to play NES or SNES games you just put the cartridges in the FC Twin.

[cendoo]

oops I meant 3 of the titles not 3 people

[cendoo]

plays NES SNES and Super Famicom exept for a few titles but out of them maybe 3 people care about

[EncoreEnterprisesLLC]

Where did you buy your FC Twin?

[Retrocorner1234]

I got it at play n trade you can get one online or in a store

[animebooklover]

Is this black one the newest version? I just bought the silver one, and I heard that it was an older model...

[EncoreEnterprisesLLC]

The older model had no "Yobo Gameware" logo on it. If it console itself doesn't have a Yobo "Jewel" sticker on it, its the older model. If there is a jewel, its the newer model.

[celestialmoongoddess]

I got this system last week, and purchased "Super Mario Bros." (NES) and "Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure" (SNES) to play on it.

Both games work well (although, upon my second playing of Mario I noticed that the screen would shake slightly during a blue-sky world...which it didn't do when I first played).

Anyway, the only problem I had was with the Mario game. I had a very difficult time getting it into the NES slot (and it's just as difficult to remove).

Did you have this problem too?

[Retrocorner1234]

No it did not shake at all and it is hard to put in and take out because the connector pins are new and even if you buy a NES with a new 72 connector pin it will be hard to take out.

[celestialmoongoddess]

I actually noticed that I have this problem with the SNES games too, but it's not as difficult as the NES one.

I wonder if it'll get easier with time and multiple use?

[Retrocorner1234]

It did with mine so it probably will

[jazpron]

but you have a nes and an snes wy did you get fc twin and if you have all 3 systems i would think you should have more games enless you like just got all them and were do you get all the money i went on ebay and there like 40$ (plus shipping and handling)

[Retrocorner1234]

I bought it so if I had a turnament I did not have to bring both

[Taybell10]

WHAt made u get into old video games???

[Retrocorner1234]

They are FUN classic games.

[Taybell10]

But what made u look into them

[Retrocorner1234]

I don't know I like simple games better I have not played my PS3 in weeks.
