Shoot ducks projected flying up the wall


and also AVS (pre-NES, finished AVS was shown at January 1984 CES)

.

yeah those are awesome, but for this list both of those dont fit. duck hunt is a tv game, and the avs is a proto.

I've converted my list so far into text, have a look at the first post

Added Famicom Titler.

Also, there are a line of Sharp TV's which had built in famicom or NES consoles, you just plgged your controllers and ame into the tv directly..
I guess they should count, but I dont really have that much interest in them.. What are other peoples thoughts?

/me looks at thread title

Hey, your thread, your rules. I'd say add 'em while you're at it.

I don't know if anybody cares, but I've seen (and have) packaging variants for the A/V Famicom units. They look just the same from a distance, no pack-in games.

There's also the Nintendo licensed Sharp "Game TV." It's a 19 inch crt tv with a built-in American nes. I had the fortune to find one in the wild for $60.

It's a lot of fun, and was a really classy dorm tv for me as well! For a 1989 tv the picture was quite decent.

yeah, there was one with a built in snes too.. I guess I should add those, but it's almost painful to type them in.. Imagining the shipping to australia on 5 or 6 of those things.. (there are a few variants)

Have you still got it?

A bit of commentary on the arcade-talk; if these were being debated, we'd also have to consider the VS. Uni-and-Multisystems and the Triforce arcade hardware.

[phreak97]

yep, I thought of that.. but theyre not consoles no matter how you look at it, so I didnt go too far into it. Dont get me wrong, I love most of the nintendo arcade games, but theyre not viable to collect.. there are many old nintendo arcade games which are worth alot of money and are nearly impossible to find. and the new triforce cabs you mentioned which cost thousands of dollars each.

I'd love to crank an F-Zero AX deluxe cab in my gameroom, but it'd send me broke and I'd have to get rid of all my other games to fit it.

I know you could collect the hardware without the cabs, but it leaves them fairly incomplete, there were no universal controls or anything for them, and most games have another pcb interfacing with the triforce box (which looks interestingly like an industrial gamecube) as well as a chunky power supply.. theyre not something your average console collector would want on display.. thered be more wires and junk than game system.

Well, I admit I tend to think of these kind of information databases as just as useful for the sake of the information they have, as opposed to actual collecting. I guess this comes from my experience with Satellaview research, where "collecting" in the same sense as one would with other consoles is impossible, but the information is worthwhile to research regardless.

If it's just for collectors, though, I can sorta see the point - although I'm sure a few people have gotten an original Donkey Kong or Punch-Out anyhow, restrictions be damned. :P

while youre talknig about satellaview.. I've got a few BSX carts which are just normal sfc games except with a slot in the cart like a super gameboy.. why did they make full playable games with the slot in them? what use does it serve?

[phreak97]

There is also a Korean Game Boy ander the Comboy name, I dont know what it is actually called or anything, it kind of looks like it's missing the hyundai branding but still has [something] Comboy on it.
you can see it here:

looks like theyre a bit protective of their photos so I figured I'd link the whole thread.. scroll down a bit.

If somoene can tell me more about it I'll add it to my list..

[phreak97]

Just letting everyone know I'm still into this after finding some good leads on the south Korean consoles, which I had assumed would be the brick wall blocking my way..

Also, the Korean gameboy is the mini comboy.
