Portable NES

[dudegladstone]

I work at a gaming store that sells the a console similar to the Atari 6-in-1 that has everything contained in the controller and plugs right to the TV via A/V. We have two models. The first model comes with a 76-in-1 cart that plugs into a n64 style controller. Second one has 128 NES games built in to a Dreamcast style controller, but still has the cart connector in the back. Board is only slightly larger than the other, but the connector is parallel to the board, rather than perpendicular. Both have a port for the included 2nd player controller/light gun, battery compartment (4AA), DC jack + adapter, A/V cables, and cart connector. 76-in-1 is $45 and 128-in-1 is $50. If you're interested, e-mail me at dudegladstone@gstones.net. I get 75% off most shipping, including international.

Are these the Power Joy line?

If not, could you provide pictures please? :)

[dudegladstone]

It is the Super Joy line, though I think it is exactly the same as the Power Joy guys. I'm gonna get some pictures this weekend.

Its not a portable nes then, it would be a famiclone.

[dudegladstone]

famiclone, it may be, but it's still portable enough for me.

Eww, these are not good machines; I had one.

1. The sound is HORRIBLE. Most music is inaudibly quiet, sound effects are full of static. There is a constant buzz on the audio entirely.

2. DOWN can't be held, just tapped. So playing games like the included Contra title are near impossible.

3. The controls jammed and stopped working within 10 minutes of when I opened the box.

4. The system's cartridge slot is unstable. Even the tiniest movement will crash the game.

5. The included 76-in-1 cart mostly has just tiny, horrible games on it. Very few things that are really worth playing.

6. Many games crash or can't run at all.

7. Lots of slowdown, more than a normal Famicom/NES.

NOTE: These do indeed only play Famicom games. And not well.

I have one and it works great. I guess it is the luck of the draw.

I've got one also and everything Epicenter said is true.

It really is one of the worst Famiclones on the market. :o

You guys must have duds. What he said about the down button/d-pad is true. The 76-in-1 has a HORRIBLE d-pad. It was improved greatly in the next one up. That is the only problem is see with the product.

Nope I've had several different versions. They all suck. :o

[dudegladstone]

Only reason anyone's ever returned anything was the d-pad not working and that was only on the old version.
