Neo-Fami clone with video


A while ago I sold the Neo Fami clone. (finally)
A Neo Fami was the first famicom system, before I was able to get AV-modded famicoms and then the twin famicom I currently have. I don't need a Twin Famicom really, but I keep it because it is a turbo model with one controller not working.

Here is the Neo Fami. It comes in different colors.


I still have a golden limited edition (numbered!) I bought 2 years ago.

It was cheap. I keep it because no one would pay for it anyways.

The controllers have a "slow" button that pauses the game at very high rate. As I was trying it out, the slow function broke and now it can't be used.  It is such a stupid function anyways. The turbo button is much more useful.

I made a video of gameplay with the neo-fami. The colors are a bit off sometimes, and the sound is not what one is used to, but as you see it works perfectly acceptable.


After I played the first test games I got stuck on Mickey Mouse... Such an annoying but strangely cool game. If you are two player, one will control Minny. That's fun.

I remember that I had one or two games that wouldn't run on the Neo Fami. One of them was some racing game I forgot which one. But a game like Castlevania III worked with no problem.

One Piece Punch Battle gameplay


I connected this thing and recorded video... There is only one cable to connect actually, the TV cable. The console is one batteries, and the boxing is picked up by a remote sensor in the console.

_

The first battle went without trouble. The second was just to fence around with your arms. The third one was more difficult, and I think the device didn't record my moves very good... Maybe I didn't stand in the right position.

But in any case, I got some exercise. It seems you have unlimited continues on each stage, so with practice it should be possible to play it through. I think there are a lot of stages, and I don't have that much patience...

Frisky Tom table game, short mention of Bandai Playdia


As previously mentioned in my Frisky Tom game boy article, I had a Frisky Tom table game on the way.





It works well. Small scratches on the plastic screens from normal use.
I can't call this a pocket game, because it wouldn't fit in a pocket.
I had to clean the battery contact a little but after that it was go.

The console has a plug for external power supply but I don't dare try out my power supplies on it.  There is no marking on what it wants. The Bandai Playdai has a center positive polarity and it didn't like it with I plugged in a center negative polarity by mistake. ( I think it broke the console, unless it wasn't broken before. But it is most likely just to replace a fuse. ) Frisky Tom is also a Bandai machine, and I don't know what power supply it may use.

In the game, you move around with the little joystick. Press Attack to hit them, if you have picked up a pipe to hit with.

Well, not too bad for 1982 I suppose. I have it priced at 495 SEK = 75$. Why not. I like the looks. It looks like a Casio calculator from the 80's.

By the way, here is my Bandia Playdia, New In Box.


Here is a second one (working condition). 


I am still looking for games... There are 20-30 or so, most of them being point-and-click, Full Motion Video, for younger kids I think.

The Playdia can also play normal music CDs.
