Used. Tested and working. The drive belt has been replaced with a brand-new belt. No retail box or printed instruction manual is included. Region: NTSC-J (Japan). This Twin Famicom console is designed for use with Japanese Famicom game cartridges and Famicom Disk System game disks only.
The console housing shows visible signs of use, including scratches and scuffs. One of the rubber anti-slip feet on the bottom of the console is slightly chipped. Both controllers show light surface wear. Each controller is equipped with built-in turbo (rapid-fire) functions. A third-party AC adapter (100V–240V compatible) and an AV cable are included.
This Twin Famicom system allows you to play both standard Famicom ROM cartridges and Famicom Disk System disk cards on a single console.
Please note: due to age, many Twin Famicom systems suffer from worn or stretched drive belts that can cause disk games to fail to load properly. On this unit, the drive belt has already been replaced using professional procedures, so you can start enjoying disk games as soon as it arrives. Before purchasing, please review all photos carefully to confirm the exact condition and included accessories.
What We Did Before This Ships
Every console we sell is opened up and serviced by hand.
We don't just confirm it powers on — we look inside.
This unit was fully disassembled and cleaned internally; dust was removed from all components.
All boards and electrical contacts were cleaned with ethanol and a fast-drying, residue-free electronics cleaner to remove oxidation and residue.
Moving mechanical parts were lubricated with a light application of silicone grease for smooth, quiet operation. (We do not apply grease to electrical contacts — they are cleaned only.)
Electrolytic capacitors are replaced only when there is visible corrosion or leakage — nothing more, nothing less. For console families known for capacitor failure, a full recap is performed as standard.
If a console cannot be properly restored, we do not sell it.
After reassembly, the unit is tested with an actual game: video, sound, and controller input are all confirmed.
Before we seal the box, we power the console on one more time and confirm it is still working.
Every console includes 30 days of support after it reaches you.
A note on power: this console uses Japan's 100V standard. Buyers in North America (120V) are advised to use a step-down transformer or a multi-voltage power supply; buyers in Europe (230V) will require a step-down transformer to use an original 100V adapter safely.
A note on region: This is a Japanese Sharp Twin Famicom. It combines the Famicom and the Famicom Disk System in one unit, and accepts all standard Famicom cartridges and Disk System titles. North American NES cartridges (72-pin) are not compatible without an adapter, as the Twin Famicom uses the same 60-pin connector as the original Famicom.
If anything here isn't covered, just ask — questions are always welcome.
