    Totes sniped this aution :cool: First ever ebay snipe and auction that I've won!

    Nice! Just make sure it's either had an AV mod done to it, or find somewhere you can get it done. Those Famicom's don't work on UK/Eire RF.

    Awesome price you got it for. Just make sure it doesn't arrive like this:

    Yeah I know, I'll see if I can find someone to mod it in the console modding forum. Or maybe I can coax a certain someone who posts here out of retirement with some coloured paper that can be used in exchange for items :P

    That's the spirit! :)

    Just heard back from yer man there. He's actually being really sound about the VB. We've reached an agreement on it so we'll see what happens tonight.

    Let us know how that Famicom goes. Exciting times for you mate, what a great console!

    EnterNow like the top bloke he is has stepped in to help me out big time. Another modder who shall remain nameless let me down big time and cost me time and money.

    I'll check the mod out, it'd be an interesting break from Megadrives & Snes'ii for a change. We shall discuss it when she lands :)

    I was also worried about getting my candy inside my house when I first ordered it.

    But unless you live in Bilbo Baggins house you will get it in any door.
    You might have to remove the control panel but thats easy enough to do on most candies I think.

    And they usually have 2 or 4 wheels as well.

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,942 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    Lol @ Bilbo Baggins. I think it's a bit more complicated on the NAC compared to the Egrets. The front base has to come off or something like that. Probably more than a five minute job and not something you want to be doing for long if it's raining out. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,328 ✭✭✭Pyongyang


    Yeah the whole front has to come off. I'm grand once I get it in the gaf. I'll get 'bird' to help me lift the monitor out and we'll get it up the stairs. I measured the doors though and the cab is about 2-3" too wide to fit. :(

    Just stressing my hoop at the moment hoping it's not raining out on Friday and I'm stuck with a cab that won't fit in my gaf and bolts that won't undo. :rolleyes:

    Ahh I see.

    Should have got an Egret Pyongyang :D

    If your candy gets water damaged I'd be interested in taking it off your hands for parts.

    That's about the size of it. :D

    I can then bore you to death for hours on SHMUP chaining, scoring strategies and proposed changes to the LBW rule in cricket. :pac:

    Oh and bring your soldering iron and mod all of my stuff. Yeah. :D
