I recently bought a US FAMCOM in original factory wrapping at a gaming store for $30. I also bought my first RPG I ever played some 15 odd years ago for a mere $4. Overjoyed I hooked up the system and unfortunately the used copy was long burned out past its time :( No luck in ever finding this game for the NES, guess I gotta get a game boy advance just to play it :*(

Anything like this ever happen to anyone? :wall:

Us famicom as in a NES

Yea..The first NES they brought over here.


Well this one is a slightly different model.

The Game is inserted vertically.

The game or the console doesnt work?

The console is brand new..the Used Copy doesn't work.

Why not search for another copy or just try to find a rom on i-net and play via pc+emulator?

Yeah, if I'm not mistaken, if you own the original copy, which you do, then using a backup in .rom form would be a legitimate avenue. I recomend nesticle.

I bought a nintendo for 5 bucks at a garage sale works nicely and It came with castlevania :)

lucky bastard!

Playing emulated games on a rom with your PC just isn't like playing it on the console with your TV.

It just doesn't feel the same.
What's the name of the game you bought anyway? I have a Gamestop nearby that has LOADS of used Nintendo games, perhaps I can find it around there.
