NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by Fanboy »

After driving all over creation to get a Gyromite cart, I find one. After looking all over creation for my screwdrivers, I find them... But whaddo I find inside the Gyromite cart... NOTHING! All I got was Gyromite (which isn't a bad game, but still)! I found some of the areas of my expedite rather intriguing though. For instance, on the back of the cart, were average flat-head screws, and the guts of the cart have extra pieces of plastic sticking out around the edges... Wierd...

On the back I think there can't be a middle screw or something (I'm not sure though, just common sense because the screw would go straight through the adapter).

wait, why does everyone need gyromite carts? They're just a nes to famicom converter, its no use with a superjoy.

Do you mean re-using the famicom slot? I'd recommend instead getting an old floppy drive cable with the older connectors. Two of those will work for a NES cart connector.

what do you mean fanboy? it would be much cheaper easier and smaller to buy a family convertor instead of desoldering the male and femaly parts of the famicom to NES convertor and soldering new ones on

I had a friend who owned an NES when it was still pseudo-big (97-98ish). We played on his :wink: . I wish I still had an NES and a ROB, but in 3rd grade I left that school and went to public school... Never saw the NES again (or the friend)...
