Guest AndrewTS Posted June 27, 2003 Report Posted June 27, 2003 I remember seeing an add-on for the Super Nintendo in old magazines in the mid-90s. It would go on top, plugging into the cartridge slot like the 32X does to the Genesis, and 2 cartridge slots would be on top. One for NES games and one for the SNES. 2 reasons I'm interested: I often visit places that have a lot of NES games, and I'm a bit interested in playing them without buying an NES by itself. Secondly, the cartridge slot on my SNES is looser than a 15-year-veteran hooker, and I'm sick of jamming paper into my SNES just to I can play games on it--this would remedy the situation. Anyone heard of such a device or where I can find one today? It wasn't an "official" product, it was a 3rd party peripheral.
Guest razazteca Posted June 27, 2003 Report Posted June 27, 2003 Could be Korean alot of "unofficial" products come from there. Lik-Seng might have what your looking for.
Agent_Bond34 Posted June 27, 2003 Report Posted June 27, 2003 Honestly, I have never heard of this particular peripheral that you are talking about. I never even knew they made such a thing.
rising up out of the back seat-nuh Posted June 27, 2003 Report Posted June 27, 2003 I remember it! Wasn't it by codemaster or Action Replay or something like that? In all honesty you'd probably save a lot of time and money in just buying a cheap NES.
Guest AndrewTS Posted June 28, 2003 Report Posted June 28, 2003 I don't think it was Korean or anything, but it was advertised in gaming mags--I think in Gamefan, in fact. And haven't seen any "cheap NESes." Just ones about $30-40. I was thinking this gizmo'd be cheaper and it would save me the space of having another console on my shelf.
Rendclaw Posted June 28, 2003 Report Posted June 28, 2003 Nintendo certainly didn't make one though it would have been a good idea... backward compatibility is always a good idea, just look at Sony. Nintendo and Sega could have extended the life of their 8- and 16-bit systems by releasing suhc a peripheral.. If it was korea than made one, I am SURE Taiwan made one... my ex roommate had a gizmo that let you copy SNES and Genesis games onto 3.5 inch floppy, and at the time she got it she was working in a video game store.... the first two nights of copying were just UNREAL.
