Goes even further than those atari 2600 and others. Even has a built in light gun! two controllers! and a LCD display or ability to connect to TV! With 84 games! and an expansion slot to for additonal cartridges with more games! Cool. $40!

If it only wasn't that ugly! :D

I don't understand...are these atari2600 versions of these games? I'm sure they can't be the originals...and as such, usually suck. But I am quite impressed with all the features (especially the "laser gun") ;D.

They're NES games.

I was looking at their forum. Famicon carts fit in it apparently.

I played one of those today at the mall. The joystick feels a bit strange, it favors the diagonals (unlike the original Nes stick that favored the primary directions).
The "original" arcade versions are the nes ports. Galaga seemed a bit jerky though, not as smooth as on a real Nes. It has a cartridge slot in the back. I asked the lady selling them if Nes cartridges worked in it and she said "No, that is for the expansion cartridge that we have coming out around Easter". I then asked her if she worked for the bootleg Taiwan factory that put these out, and then she sort of started helping someone else instead.

I haven't seen this one anywhere else on this forum (but then I haven't looked very hard either). Thinking of getting one:

That one is basically the same thing. The problem with all the "all in one" pirate nes units is that the contollers are not that hot. They have fake buttons, and a reset button that is always getting accidently pressed.
Although with a little solder work you could fill a cabinet with one of these and a 19" tv with very little overall cost, and it would be almost as fun as a real Mame cabinet.
