Hi All,
First post I've ever made here, but I have been experiencing difficulties trying to identify a Famicom I saw this weekend, and all because of one slight difference.
My cousin and I went to the local flea market, and this lady had a Famicom way in the back corner, sitting there with approx. 6-7 games. The console looks like your classic Famicom, 2 hard wired controllers, the game titles on some of the games listed in Japanese and one that I presume is a Mario game with a very dated artwork design on the cartridge. What threw me off was rather than the console showing "Family Computer" displayed right across the console, it just has "Nintendo".
Does anyone know if this was just a later model that was created that put a different title across the top-front of the console or perhaps a different region Famicom that I stumbled upon?
Any input would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
