Used Sharp Twin Famicom (Red) AN-500R - Serviced Japan Exclusive | enjoy Game Japan - Tested & Working

Title: Two Eras of Youth, Housed in a Single Body.

Hello, it's the shopkeeper.

In the world of retro games, there are rare, mysterious masterpieces that make international collectors lament, "Why was this only released in Japan?" This "Twin Famicom," manufactured by Sharp under license from Nintendo, is precisely one such machine.

The Famicom and the Disk System. The two machines that defined the youth of a generation, residing in a single body. What a beautiful integration.

And this vivid "red." This was not a choice made merely to stand out. It is an expression of the utmost respect for the iconic dark red that the original Famicom wore. It was a proud declaration made through color, as if to say, "We are the ones who inherit the blood of the Famicom."

Actually, this very Twin Famicom used to be at my grandfather's house. My family put it there to help prevent his dementia. I'm not certain if he ever actually played it, but whenever I visited, it sat proudly next to the TV. Mind you, there wasn't a single game disk for it. (laughs)

Partly because of that personal memory, I can't help but pour a little extra affection into this machine.

[A Note on Maintenance: Connecting to the Future]

The Twin Famicom's structure has a weakness of collecting dust internally. Therefore, at our shop, we don't just clean it; we disassemble it and wash every nook and cranny inside.

The heart of the Disk System, the rubber belt, is of course replaced with a new one. Furthermore, we don't just replace it. We also make fine adjustments so that when the belt eventually deteriorates again, it will be easy for you, the customer, or a future technician to repair.

This is not just a used item. It is a special machine, serviced with my own memories and a wish to connect this wonderful console to the next generation.
