The definitive fusion of 8-bit innovation — the Sharp Twin Famicom AN-500R, combining the Family Computer and Disk System into one sleek, red-bodied console.
Used. Tested and working properly. Region: NTSC-J (Japan). The disk drive belt has been replaced with a new Japan-made belt.
The console has scuffs and scratches. Both controllers show scuffs, wear, yellowing, and fading. Includes a third-party AC adapter (100V–240V compatible) and a third-party AV cable.
Neither controller has a turbo (rapid-fire) function. The instruction manual, retail box, and magnetic head protection sheet are not included.
This Twin Famicom combines the original Family Computer (Famicom) and Disk System into one console with video output, allowing you to play both game cartridges and Disk Cards.
Over time, many Twin Famicom units develop worn or stretched drive belts, which can prevent disk games from loading correctly. On this unit, the belt has already been professionally replaced, so you can start playing disk games right away.

From the curator’s notebook
“The Twin Famicom was the dream combo machine of 1986 — the red one looked like it belonged in a science museum. And even today, that new-belt hum when it reads a disk… still feels like hope.”
