Normally i wouldn't even bother looking at them but recently i saw this cool little clone. It can be used for NES and for SNES! Any thoughts?

a local game store around me started selling those beore I saw them on ebay. There pretty neat, but I like original, if you don't want to cart around 2 systems it would be perfect, they work great.

Yeah that's what i mean, it's handy and not all big to bring along somewhere. I might pick one up in the near future.

I have a super fc loader, its a famiclone that came with a famicom to nes converter.Not sure if its the same company or not but mine has an uber ninja grip and im blaming it for breaking my super dodgeball cart whether it did it or not :P.So im not playing nes games untill i get my nes in.Also if i pull my controller cable and it bumps the nes i get a blue screen.So in my experience clones = suckage.Just a heads-up.

it looks cool,want 1

Well they're certainly cheap in every sense of the word. I've gotten more than one complaint/return from people the buy my doubles, which of course work, but aren't compatible with clones.

We have been selling this unit for a couple months at our stores...with almost a zero return rate. I demo a unit at a couple of stores for 8 hours every day, and have yet to replace any of the demo units. This is the only good NES clone out there...and I highly recommend it. I have run out of Marios due to the popularity of this console.

How much do you sale them for Early-Worm??
~~NGD

I've got one.  I haven't had any problems with it with my games.  The only drawback is that you can't use the NES gun with it.  Overall I'm quite happy with it.  It takes up less space and I don't need to switch consoles when playing NES or SNES.  I love it  :D

we sell the unit with your choice of two games...one NES and one SNES....for $79.95 . It comes with two SNES control pads in its package. The machines only drawback is you cannot plug in the Zapper, because it uses original SNES pads. I have often thought about checking to see if a Lethal Enforcer pistol, or maybe a Superscope, may work to play Duckhunt.

Do games known not to work on clones such as mad max or castlevania 3 work on this particular clone?

Interesting question, Early-Worm any idea if some don't work on it?

I have not checked any specific games on it to see if they would work. I don't know which games didnot work on the topload yobo NES. I just know there were a few. If you can tell me a couple or three titles to check, I would be happy to. I will check the mentioned in the spot before this one...tomorrow.  I have not heard any customers complain about compatability problems, but most people who buy this unit from us are only after the main titles...Mario, DK country, metroid, etc.

Ok cool, thanks for the info. Zer0cool name some games that don't work proper on yours, see what happens. Maybe it's a general problem and maybe not.

Mad max loads fine but wont start or react to controls.

Castlevania 3 tries to start up but doesnt get past the intro.(Same results from two different copies)

Paperboy wont react to controls.

Pinballs sound is not right but fine otherwise.

I believe this is all i have experienced first hand...

Ive heard river city ransom doesnt work on clones but i dont have a copy to test.I know some companies like Messiah have online list of noncompatible games on the web.Maybe this company does as well.Not sure how truthfull they are though.

I found several reviews of the fc twin but i dont know how accurate they would be.Basically its a NOAC so it has the same issues as most clones but apparently the snes portion is pretty good.Someone also said it has the same compatibility as a yobo.I didnt bother linking cause all you have to do is google fc twin compatibility and for all i know these people could be talking out of their asses.


I feel like im trying to talk you out of this purchase  :P.I guess i just hate my clone.My clone is a NOAC and its a pos.

Thought i should add that i might be making a bigger deal about compatibility than it is to you or others.I believe its only something like 5% of games that have issues...well more with the color/sound issues but 5% about that wont work at all.

For some reason Mega Man 6 does not work on my Yobo....I have no idea why.  I tested 2 different copies too so it's definitely a compatibility problem with Mega Man 6.  Also my Earth Bound reproduction doesn't work on it.  Every other game I tested works well though.

I've also noticed some sound problems on certain games, but I have a trained ear.  The average consumer probably wouldn't notice the differences, but any dedicated NES fan should.  For example, the jumping sound in SMB is WAY off.

Thanks for the info man, that means overall this thingy plays well.
