@StephenAlexWalker That's something Nintendo should have added to the Virtual Console port. They probably would have if they weren't more interested in actually stripping their ports of things like virtual rumble pak and controller pak compatibility.
Now I get it, the disc system gives you the advantage of having to switch sides and having to sit through load times! It's funny that all this time I thought it did something useful.
@JRock424 i heard that the twin famicom ran on batteries even though it did not need them. other than that, this looks cool, i wish i was in japan so i can get this. i may never get to go to japan, but a guy has got to dream ,right? p.s. there was a golden mega man 4 cardtrige that was being sold, i think its worth $700 U.S.
That is the first time I've seen a Famicom and Disk System all-in-one. I like the style of it.
Was it an official product, or is the famicom something like an "on a chip" thing?
Just wondering since I have a Power Player 128 (in the shape of a dreamcast controller) that has a 60-pin expansion port/slot that looks like it would play Famicom games.
when loading on that type of system it should say famicom not Nintendo because the sharp famicom twin was subcontracted out to sharp so i wonder if he or who he bought it from replace the disk drive portion with an actual nintendo disk drive from the original if thats even possible. just something little i noticed.
its possible that it may have been modified, because the FDS was notorious for failing drive belts. So either brico or the seller he bought it from may have replaced the disk drive with a OEM nintendo drive that was working.
basically the nes cartridge originally was the floppy you see, it can be put in one either side, and the snes was just a jap cart design, the system plays both hence the name "Twin"
3" disk?

You don't need to find a Super Famicom, an SNES will play all the Japanese games, just clip the tabs inside the cartridge slot with pliers.

Inside the slot that cartridges go into, next to the pin connector inside the SNES system.

There is no Region Code, but the Pins of the Carts are other.

Can you plug the Famicom into an American electrical outlet?
skyrunner14 3 years ago
Yes, but with an little Tool.
The TwinFC runs on 100V but (I think, i´m from Germany) the US Electrical runs on 120V.
You will maybe need an Stepdown Converter.
RyoJapan2007 3 years ago
Oh, because I'm in the U.S.
Would a Famicom work in an American outlet anyone?

An AV Modified Famicom, or an Twin Famicom Yes.
