and im really interested... but first i want to know if there are any other pirate nes consoles that are better then this... i want pirated ones because there new, and they have little chance on breaking down, unless they have CRAPPY parts

The best pirate NES is one that makes all the Famiclones walk the plank. Arr (http://www.half-life2.com/hl2.php?move=pirate)!

I often hear the Neo Fami being called the best Famiclone ever. You can see one here:

I bought that one yesterday at the Gametrader. It came with Wizards and Warriors 1 and 2 for $45. My NES works fine, but I wanted to have a dedicated machine to play Famicom games on. My Famicom doesn't work(I think), and I hate dealing with that converter.
I popped in Final Fantasy II first thing, and it busrt to life like it was a brand new console. I was sold right there.
It did however fell very very cheap. It was very light, and I thought I'd break it within an hour. It's still working.....for now.

One thing I'd like to know is this. Has anyone connected a pirate console like this to a Disk System?

The one that looks like a small NES, sometimes called NASA.

Yes, thatīs the best one you can find. The "Creations" (very similar) are also good

I have also heard that the "Neo Fami" is the best pirate NES ever! Never tried one my self though, but most people only speak positively of it.

I got a chance to see a couple of these in action yesterday, I was rather impressed, one store has one of these setup at a couch, and some old school SMB action was going on (which was nice, because it gave me a chance to play Halo 2) looks good, I may pick one up eventually.

Yah, there was a guy at the flea market selling those Neo Fami things. It looked really cheap, but for the price I guess you can't go wrong ($29 or $39 can't remember. not bad though!)

I saw one that looked JUST like a PS1, but when you opened the lid there was a cartridge slot! Now that's cool.

I got one of those for Christmas this year and haven't had any problems with it yet... the controllers aren't bad, but they don't feel like the regular nintendo ones that I grew up on... I think I'll probably make an adapter so I can use my original ones.

Are those SNK characters on the front cover? That's a bit misleading. LOL

That lightgun, however, gets +100 coolness points from me.

Who's ordering the Neo FC that's compatible with NES controllers? The silver one looks pretty sharp.

I made it a couple of weeks ago.

I got 6 PSone Screens from Toys-R-Us and did a few projects. :)

You can find all sorts of consoles at DarkWatcher's. The link goes to the Console Clones section.

Edit: Dark Watcher's is not a buisness site- Just a console history site.

My Polystation : :D

3 questions:

does the light gun work with the TFT screen?

Does the screen fit onto the polystation with little/no modding?

Will you sell me one? PM me!

1. Yes but it is "off" sometimes.

2. Tou have to remove the power and a/v plug on the inside edge of the screen if you don't want to cut the Polystation. Otherwise you have to cut 2 small squares with an exacto knife that will allow the screen to fit.
Also you have to wire the video from the Polystation to the screen. And I wired the power from the screen to the Polystation so it only needs the Screens Power Supply or the Batteries Power .
So it is a little complicated.

3. A screen ? Or a Polystation ? I only have the one Polystation. But I have 2 or 3 more screens that I'm saving for more projects.

Thats awsome jonjandran, and so was that Dreamcast with the psone screen.

Also will a Genny controller fit in the port on that Polystation? Who else wants to play Super Mario Bros. 3 with a Genny controller?

The Genesis controller works but the buttons aren't mapped the same.

Up on the controlle is A and Left is Start or something like that. LOL
