FC-16 Go Portable Super Nintendo Handheld Review

[xDaXAFImoshmonkey]

The cops are serious but I love them! Except Glendale cops I dont like them

[MrGLOWFOX]

I'm from puerto rico to :D

[Ahalo1222]

@Gamester81 does this work with pal games.

[ACluelessKid]

This actually looks fantastic. I'm not fond of clones, but I can't resist the temptation to play Harvest Moon and Earthbound on the go.

[ActionGag]

@ACluelessKid me too!

[darkinertia2]

YO DAWG i herd you like video games...

[CaveStoryAwesomeness]

@darkinertia2

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[AbuBishir]

They put those screws there so that kids don't get at the batteries. Most of toys nowadays are made so that you have to use a screw driver to get at the batteries. I really hate that

[jyatzy123]

you kno w canada does excist and some your subs are from there to

[dwarf365]

"That" controller is a old pong controller, it had push/pull , and rotate. crazy play style.

[SuperPastaMan1]

I can't find any good portable nes/snes clones. The D-pad on all of them such.

[Chaoitcme]

@SuperPastaMan1 Retron 3 is great. I don't use the wireless controllers that came with it but I use the original system controllers. You can use NES, SNES, and Genesis controllers with it. Get a Retron 3 and you will be happy.

[lenneth3]

can you put a supereverdrive and load games from there?

[spike007980]

The super gameboy works! Excellent!

[bonorrr]

54 dollars? Where?

[productionmaniacp98]

and it's still for sale for 54 bucks!!!

[cspruce427]

@MRKosmosTV The snes is a 16-bit system.

[21AcesFtrSqdn]

WOOOOO!!!!!! PHOENIX ROCKS!!!!!!!!!

[346Yoman]

1 word to fix all your problems : Supaboy ***COMING LATE SEPTEMBER***

[CpObiWan456]

PLEASE HELP!!! MY SECOND PLAYER REMOTE WONT WORK!!!! PLAESE TELL ME HOW TO FIX IT!! WHEN I TURN IT ON ONLY PLAyER ONE WORKS!!!

[tembwbam99]

@CpObiWan456 Hey, man, I understand your panic, but he's not tech support. Did the manual come with a support number?

[CpObiWan456]

@tembwbam99 actually no it didnt

[TheMostAwesomeHat]

I have probotector to!

[mynewpeppie]

it looks like you are playing a game boy advance game on the ds

[V1olentGoddess]

i really admire your collection

[kutangelwings]

if that thing is that bulky then the screen should be a lot bigger

[BIGBOSS1983100]

@Gamester81 Nice review man. I just ordered one :) Keep making these great reviews.

[trumpeter811]

as big as the thing is you would think the dam cartridge would fit inside the system

[cmonconan]

Dont mess with pal pal.

Euro trash fo life! lol

[deadmetalbr]

you're lucky plugging the super game boy into that thing didn't rip a hole in the universe...

[MrDragtalon]

I have the donkey kong country games but only the first 2 and they are pretty fun on the original super nintendo i really like the second donkey kong tho.

[RygarPunk]

Nice! :)



[izzlemafia]

AZ REPPIN

[8DXD8]

Is there something that must be done in order to make Game Genie work on this model? Because whenever I plug my SNES GG(model no. 7353)into the FC-16 GO with a game attached, the typical text and logo pops up, but when it gets to the code input screen, it immediately enters a '0' on it''s own and freezes in place.

It doesn't allow me to input any codes OR even start the game! What's the problem here?!

[matt165165]

i think that controller on ur shirt is a fairchild channel f controller

[rubenmorales19]

I ordered this today with Mario RPG! >:D

[thestoriesofbob]

@rubenmorales19 how much was Mario RPG?

[rubenmorales19]

@thestoriesofbob $20 more or less.

[thestoriesofbob]

@rubenmorales19 thats actually a decent price

[rubenmorales19]

@thestoriesofbob Yes it is, there was one at $399 O_o

[rkoguy]

@rubenmorales19 o_O

[TheSkeletontoucher]

@rubenmorales19 doooooddd, i hope your having fun my console deletes my saves :( is yours doing the same?

[noodleking456]

do origional nes games work on it?

[superduperdrew12345]

is there any way to get a replacement charger?

[superduperdrew12345]

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! after watching this i bought one at the flea market all excited because it looked like it was all there but when i got home i noticed it had everything...except charger!!!

[Stevanhale]

The mystery controller on your shirt looks like a Fairchild Channel F controller.

[trizzle316]

dkc games are the best

[itimmy101]

thats a sick shirt...=)

[iheartslimshady]

Do you have the FC 3 plus? also made by yobo, plays NES, SNES, and Genesis Carts.

[iheartslimshady]

love you shirt!

[maxwillson]

I just bought one off of ebay! Whoo can't wait! It's kinda point less, but I don't care.

[lumpy1011]

Whats better FC-16 or FC-6

[ryanfoss]

Batteries are considered a choking hazard....that's why the battery covers are always screwed on.

[TheBetaTube]

@ryanfoss Why would you want to eat batteries?

[ryanfoss]

@TheBetaTube Uhhh because they are an excellent source of zinc......

[TheBetaTube]

@ryanfoss Damn right they are! *eats one now*

[justmymage]

Why no1 can make a handheld gaming unit size of a ds whit same screen size as the ds.

Then they would just get a emo basic os from somewhere (so people could put a usb stick in it for example and pick a game there/or make a sd card hole and put it in that (and also providing a kit that has sd to usb so moving games would be easy).

And it could play from nes to ummm... Ps1? (though getting its stable & good looking os would be a pain)

[garganrose]

its ds's bulky cousin

[jayc5413]

Get an iPad, Jailbreak it, then connect bluetooth controllers / mouse / keyboard. Get emulator, and as many games as you want. Done Deal, with more functionality and efficiency.

[TheCameron013]

My only concern is the screen size - do you think the text would be hard to read in text-heavy RPGs?

[cubx1979]

hmm, I wonder how hard it would be to mod this with a bigger screen

[DjStiv3]

how much it cost?

[virus1234555]

i was thinking about buying this but does it come with any games?

[ClassicsShow]

Nice review. But does anyone know if this thing is compatible with Super Mario RPG?because i know the FC twin isn't.

[MrDavidtron7]

that is for the fairchild f system

[christo930]

I think emulation is better than the real thing because you can save your place. I just don't have the attention span to play a game for hours and hours, but I can do it in smaller chunks.

[5692873]

It dont look very comfortable what do you say.Also does yours still work after a year Im thinking about buying one.

[Skyk0rn]

super nomad, lol. 

[homicidalchickenz]

For sale?

[rippinreffers]

thats an amazing shirt

[rootbeer543]

Mine stopped working on the second day. The light signalling that the battery was about to die went off and then it died. I plugged it in to charge but it didn't do anything to help it. It had a green light which I assume meant it was fully charged. It starts up but won't play any games. The screen lights up for a second but then goes blank. The system stays on though. Any udea wht's wrong with it and how I can fix it?

[urantivirus]

It probably doesn't play Super Mario RPG :(

[theprzmostfin3zt]

hey how much dose that cost wear can i get 1

[rifleman1002]

Awesoem. lou frigno likes old games! jk. awesome review.

[rh7889]

Does the Super Game Boy play any Game Boy Color games? Please let me know ASAP.

[dandeejones]

i might swap the screen out not sure if i can tho

[klinecars3]

YA MADE DIS ON MA BDAY LOL

[liljolt]

how can i get one dood??

this shit is awsome

[KasHCubeD]

Can it play Star Fox?

[KenseiKitsune]

@KasHCubeD Yes, yes it can.

[Crazygreeklad]

Is the SNES Handheld Portable FC16 Go region locked?

[crazyfooInc]

I'm kinda hesitant to buy the FC-16 Go from StoneAgeGamer for one reason; that new dead-pixel disclaimer. If I pay upwards of $50 for something, not being able to return it for 1-2 dead pixels will drive me insane.

[rifleman1002]

@crazyfooInc Dead Pixels on this thing is NOT that bad. Seriously the pixels are like 1/10th of a millameter.

[crazyfooInc]

@rifleman1002

Meh, if I pay over $50 for something, I'd expect it to be perfect. They just annoy the hell outta' me :-D

[cheeseymonkeystudio2]

DOES IT PLAY UK CARTRIDGES? please reply as i never play snes or nes before and thinking to get this.

[Gamester81]

@cheeseymonkeystudio2 I'm unaware if it plays PAL to be honest. My guess is that it doesn't.

[rifleman1002]

@Gamester81 It has rails on it to glide NTCS cart in so a PAL cart could not fit. I would not recommend removing the tabs though. I would get an adapter cart.

[lordrath2000]

@cheeseymonkeystudio2

Break the little plastic clips on the inside of the cartridge holder, and it'll play any region

[lawsturner]

@cheeseymonkeystudio2 Normally the FC 16 Go cannot play PAL SNES games or Japanese Super Famicom games, but if the rear of the case is disassembled the clips that stop a Japanese cartridges from entering can be cut off and it will play all games

from wikipedia

[plancnathangardner]

i have that same model and i never liked the case it was in so i got on the internet and i learned how to make a kick a 1

[terrareus13]

After months of searching for one I finally got one the other day. At first I thought I wasted $70 after seeing how cheaply made the outer casing was and how shoddy the d-pad and buttons are on the actual system. After trying out the wireless controllers, I decided it was a great buy. The wireless controller works perfectly and the screen size is actual decent for a portable system. You can also hook it up to your tv which is awesome.

[Fallenangelsinc]

Its a rob the robot!!!

[xXcartmen12Xx]

can the game genie work for this?

[TheW0rldsGame]

Hay There You Getting Rock Band 3 With The Key broad.

[guysofhell]

that looks cool!!!!

[godajmo]

Does it can play Kirby Super Star?

[gillianx68000]

i dont understend..i see videos where super famicom games works in this fc-16 go..but i read on most sites"this system dont work with sfc games..."looks great anyway thanks for the analysis

[UltraWill96]

i believe thats collecovision

[thedahmerkid]

it looks like it might be an intellivision controller, hard to tell

[DragonlordRock863rd]

does the portable super nintendo support all super nintendo games??

[z5ck]

there out of stock......

[xkrazyways]

can you play 2 players?(portable)

[MetalheadsAbyss]

why cant i play Castlevania in any of the FC twins??? anyone know???

[EARTHW0RMJIM55]

cool video

[DogWomen35]

You can play Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse on this Go Portable Super Nintendo Handheld. We have one and I beat this game and saw that it say "if you enjoy this game, buy it twice!" Now that's funny!

[ThatsFresh26]

im already hooked im buying this this week great video

[jordanv78]

That portable rules! I want to get one!

[MarcoZ1ITA1]

if i'm not wrong, the controller you point to is from the Fairchild Channel F.

[HumanDaikon]

Also, if you have the game, I'd like to see what Mega Man X looks like.

[HumanDaikon]

Can it play japanese cartridges?

[RaulBillieJean]

does it work with starfox?

[DarkAvatar1313]

@RaulBillieJean

there are other youtube videos showing it can

[duvisa]

great system, the games work in the first try, cool

[ShypkusPIes]

some yobo products tend to break easily and damage game cartridges.

[HumanDaikon]

What? How? It doesn't look like it can.

[Edsmack]

I looked at the website! Price for the game portable is reasonable in price!

[xXSteefJanXx]

nice shirt! =D

[InfiniteGears]

clean it buddy or check the PCB out

[dogeymon83]

That looks really cool but honestly I can't ever justify buying one of these kinds of things that only play games for one system. After getting gp2x wiz I just can't ever go back to handheld cartbased portables.

[wiilover55]

Not even for Mario? :(

[dogeymon83]

Don't need to. I have every Mario game on the Wiz!

[RA7ICU5]

dude tat shirt is sick!!!

[IcyProductionsInc]

omg contra i love contra the new ones are gay tho

[stoneagegamer]

Thanks for the link. Great videos been watching a lot of them.

[Gamester81]

Cool, thanks for watching.

[uberpubert69]

@Gamester81 That controller you didn't know looks like an Atari 7800 controller to me.

[guysofhell]

@Gamester81 oh yeah how much is this???

[starblazers1969]

Thanks Gamester81

My Wife bought me a FC-16 Go Portable Super Nintendo for my birthday.

[cain0022]

looks alot like the ds really cool handheld i dont wanna get it coz its not official but at the same time i do wanna get it

[Nintendoman15]

1,000 more subscribers to go ^^.

[vintagevideogamegeek]

It's weird that the portable Genesis you got was so small and this is so bulky. Still, it's pretty cool. I'd like to get one eventually.

[MrMMO97]

this that controller on youre shirt youre curious about is a atari 7800 controller??

[bullishportz]

Great video Gamester81. I never even heard of the Yobo so thanks for putting this video up.

[RetroGamer3]

OMG super Gameboy works ! lol

My Snes died. I'm so buying this.

Thanks for the vid.

[cooprey]

does anyone know if i can get this in th uk?

[Rubycon99]

The mystery controller kind of looks like a fairchild channel f controller, but its hard to tell for sure from far away.

[JasonJ25]

Wow. I like how you get these systems that I've never heard of. Its awsome. The screen and sound are great on that.

[mintkendishin]

ok so yea i got one of these......the d pad sux ass .... but the wireless controls work really well

[Sebion1980]

Does it only play Super Famicom cartridges? Or also Japanes ones and European Super Nintendo cartrdiges?

[DoctorXTV]

Great vid, love the t-shirt !!!

[nightmathzombieethan]

I dig the shirt bro!!!

I can't really see the mystery controller all that well but it's making me think of an old one for intellivision or colecovision....maybe even for old PC's? I remember one that had kind of a pistol grip with a "shield" (Like the handle of a sword with a "knuckle guard") with a large red knobbed joystick where the blade would be, and several multicolored buttons stacked vertically along the grip/hilt....

Does that ring a bell 4 anyone? Tough to describe...

[doulikepieid]

it looks like a ds on steroids

[duhmez]

They don't have taxis where u live? To drink does not mean that u must drive.

[8BitGoomba]

wow sounds seems pretty solid with that device, I noticed on some of the portables it sucks, good review :)

[lukemorse1]

Indeed it looks like a well designed clone system. They finally got around to doing with the snes what they could have done a long time ago like the nomad. better late then never for sure. well explained and demonstrated

[MrAssassin1337]

so,no ingame inside like genesis mobile?

[antnie0425]

Which of the 3 star wars games for the SNES is the best?  I think I have the last one, not sure though.

[theolderschoolgamer]

awesome review, looks like an intresting piece of technologie, keep up the excellent work!

[DeathAdder83]

Dude I pretty much did the same thing, except it was Guitar Hero World Tour with my girlfriend, I had to be at work at 7am New Years Day, plus I hate dealing with the Po Po on New Years Eve, just the worst day to mess with the law.

but MetallicA and Wild Turkey are a good match I realized lol.

anyways that's awesome about your console give away.

[supernorst]

excellent, great portable super nintendo, i would prefer this anyday to a gameboy advance, and its ports from the snes.

[SplatterTrigger]

You just sold a unit.That thing is sweet!

The OC music is so classic

[janson2085]

that is sweet as hell man..i would love to take my snes games on the go...awesome vid

[shaurz]

No beam, it uses 2.4 GHz radio not infra-red.

[RAFmagix77]

I love Contra

[RAFmagix77]

The LCD screen looks great

[tyzwain]

Excellent machine there! I love seeing stuff like this, thanks for showing us :)

[Zynt453]

This looks cool, my Snes seems to not want to read the cartridges all the time these days, so this may be a good purchase :D

[cheesecakeplzzz]

i want one!

[Dan9550X]

nice review :)

[dmt257]

Cool. Love your videos.

[MNC122703]

I went with the all black one lol , I though the red didnt look as nice in person but thats just what I think about it

[LandStalker69]

Really cool! how much do those thing cost?

[BackForwardPunch]

Looks alright, but production value doesn't look great. I think since this is a SNES on a chip, its technically emulation as much as the wiz is.

[snkjack]

Can you use the wireless controllers when its not hooked up to a TV?

[romeoteknik]

I'd also like to see if this plays Super Famicom games as well.

[Gamester81]

@romeoteknik

Sadly this system is not compatible with Super Fami games.

[madpierrot92]

@Gamester81

hey I just wanted to tell you about a system like this.

it's called generation NEX, and it's an nes clone but it actually looks high quality, and it looks like a slimmed-down NES, toaster model (kinda like what sony does to there playstations). it costs around 60 usd, and it plays famicom games as well. thought you would be interested. sub'd ya

[Gamester81]

@madpierrot92

The Gen NEX is the system I use most of the time to play my NES games. It has wireless remotes too. It's fairly hard to find now even on ebay.

[madpierrot92]

ha, new you would have/want one. I love that thing

[coreykun667]

@Gamester81 i bought it at gamestop first chance i got because my old nes broke years back, and my old games were just sitting unplayed. it kinda sounds weird on super mario bros. though.

[cod5x]

@romeoteknik you can make compatible to super famicon games but it involves taking t apart and taking out a chip but a unexperienced person may break it

[QuickSciFi]

This baby looks gorgeous. I'm glad the buttons are good. And what a plus it is to have wireless controllers. And two of them! How awesome is that? Great vid! I may just get me one of these. Thank you for introducing us to it. =)
