Need help "unbending" a twin famicom

Post by psychotic_mechanic »

Have you guys seen the "circuit-bent" NES games? The game plays but the sprites are all mixed up.

I bought a twin famicom today and it is acting like it is bent, even with the FDS portion which doesn't play through the cart slot in a twin. I'm thinking that there is a problem with a graphics chip or something. Anybody have any ideas what could be causing this and if it can be fixed?

I actually bent one of my NES games, I swapped the CHR chips from the games. It was rather interesting.

Sounds like a messed up glop-top though.

A twin famicom has a full size famicom and a famicom disk inside of it. (no glop tops, just normal 80's chips) I'm guessing the problem is in one of those since the disk drive plays bent too.
