I just confirmed with the Retroware guys that he will indeed be using the ORIGINAL NES for this. However, he upgraded the faulty design issue with a new 3rd party connector that grasps the contacts more snugly, thus eliminating the flashing issues of the prior design.

aaaaaaaactually the flashing issue is the 10NES security chip sync problem (GTFOT).... why not just chop it off and be done with it...granted the connector is 1/2 of the problem.
raped from wikipedia:
--- Quote ---Problems with the 10NES lockout chip frequently resulted in the console's most infamous problem: the blinking red power light, in which the system appears to turn itself on and off repeatedly because the 10NES would reset the console once per second. The lockout chip required constant communication with the chip in the game to work.

P.S. the 2nd generation NES did away with the chip...for obvious reasons.

I replaced my pin connector in my nes by buying a new one on ebay. It wasn't expensive (maybe 5 bucks) and it comes with instructions on fixing it. Pretty easy. I recommend everyone replace it on their NES. Works like new..
