JC Ex Member	Re: FamicomBOX Reply #19 - 23. May 2007 at 05:16 I've never tried it out, but I hear from a dude who sells these carts that they don't work on the NES. The carts seem to have some special coding that links it up with the FamicomBox. Most, if not all, NES games do not work on the FamicomBox.

I won the Mahjong cart from Japan-Games recently thinking it would work on my NES, I guess I should've done some research first

They work fine on a Top Loader, just like they should. The only thing that is different about them is that they have something extra in them that makes them work on a famicombox/station. The Famibox will only play these games and not any other games, has to be the famicombox games. At least that is my understanding of it, would love to test it out whenever I can actually get a famibox.

JC and me were talking about it a few days ago on famicomworld about it. He thinks that the FB has a menu screen and you have to access games through the menu screen. So, only games with the menu info in them will show on the menu screen. But there may be more complex lockout involved, which I've heard about, but I'm not technical enough to recall or discuss it.

JC Ex Member	Re: FamicomBOX Reply #24 - 29. Jun 2007 at 00:31 NGD has that mostly right...only...there is definitely a menu screen; the game must communicate with the FB in order for the game to appear on the menu. When you power on the FB, there's also a screen that tests the carts to ensure they're functioning (communicating).
