Re: Portable NES (Non-Homemade)
That's the Game Theory Admiral.
I hear the cart slot is pretty annoying, especially if you want to play the 72-pin US games you will need 2 adapters. The GTA comes with some weird yellow adapter that goes from however many pins it the GTA cart slot has (it has a small cart connector on the system, approx the size of a GBA connector one would figure) to 60pin, and then you'd need the 60-72 pin adapter. It would be very large, and stick out at a weird angle and may be phisically impossible if not just incredibly awkward.

For $45 dollars I dont know, you might be better off spending an extra $5 for the FC Mobile 2 if just making one yourself is out of the question.

Thanks for the info, I didn't know that it had such a small cart slot.

Re: Portable NES (Non-Homemade)
Yea the GTA is complete and utter crap. The screen is terrible and the cart sticks out to far with an adapter so the games constantly reset.
Avoid it !!!

Interesting. The case front is almost identical to the FC mobile, but this one runs on four batteries instead of three, and has the b/a buttons corrected. $25 shipped isn't bad at all, either. I'll have to just hope they're still available when I have money.

Re: Portable NES (Non-Homemade)
I was looking for info on this and apparently there is a "Retro-Mini X" as well that looks exactly like the FC Mobile 2. It's either by the same company or someone is making clones of clone systems...Tibia wrote:marshallh wrote:Or this one for $25 shipped, runs American nes titles without an adapter
