FC Twin NES/SNES Console

I saw this today, and within minutes ordered one for myself. It's the FC Twin Console, a third-party combination NES and SNES console. Apparently Nintendo's original patents have expired, so it's actually legal. I still have a ton of these games, but my systems don't work so great. This way, I'll save space, and not rebuy games on the WiiVC I already own. I'll let you guys know my opinions when I get it in. I offered to do a review of it for RetroBlast!, but they may not care to post it. They are more about Arcade games, and may not care to promote something that is barely legal. We'll see, I guess.

That's pretty interesting, although yes, the legality of it might be a little in question. :) My family gave away all of the NES games my parents had accumulated, and we never owned an SNES (suh-nes?), so this wouldn't be on my "to buy" list.

Dammit. I forgot to change my "identity."

LOL, don't worry, you won't be red listed. :) BTW, my FC Twin came in last night. It is pretty great, I should have a review up soon, and I did get approvavl for it to be on RetroBlast.
