Anyone knows this? It comes with a small monitor, and looks quite interesting.. wondering where I can get one of this..

it has a floppy drive?!
also, where do the controllers go?
that thing looks AWESOME!
A floppy drive? IT HAS A SCREEN! ;D
i found 1,
will update when it arrives.
WOW, it has cassette drive like Commodore! :o
That is seriously bad ass and you are amazing, Prince Tomato! Glad you found one, and can't wait to hear details about it :)
things may get even better...
i may have found two.
google won't yield any info on these things,
so i'm sending one to an expert for analysis,
i want to know more about the strange cartridges in the
box on the right side.
possibly MSX or something?
i doubt it takes Famicom carts, but we'll know soon if all goes well.
That is one hell of a find!!! :o I want to know moaaar!! :D
Me too! :D
There certainly were Chinese MSXes since the blueMSX emulator has Chinese language types, but I don't know how common they were. Also I've never seen a Famiclone with double cartridge slots. Additionally the cartridges looks a bit short for Famicom carts.
just got a message from the seller,
he wants €160 a piece including shipping.
i don't really have that kind of money right now and i don't know if they are really worth that much...
what do you guys think?
Sounds like a lot for an old computer that we don't know much about.
i agree, but i'm still tempted...
How much of that price is shipping? If this thing has a CRT built into it (even a small one), it's going to be heavy.
shipping is a little over €50.

so, turns out that there are 4 available,
buying all 4 would be a bit cheaper,
about €140 a piece including shipping,
but it's a bit more than i want to spend on these right now, or at least all by myself .
anyone else interested in these and willing to jump in?
i dont have near enough! :-[ but im really curious whats on those carts though and the whole system itself looks really cool (although im sure my mother would kill me if a got ANOTHER game system ::) )
Where did you find it?
if you don't want it, then I want to get one, if you don't mind.
Huateng Toy Co.
i don't know how or where,
but they found 4 used ones.
I'm not sure that I have that kind of money to be tossing around either at the moment, but that Famiclone does look slick. My only question though is as follows: Are we even sure that this is a Famiclone?
after digging around a bit (an d a little help from friends)
my guess is that it isn't.
you it is running on some kind of HT-DOS OS,
where other PC Famiclones will have a custom OS and usually a fake windows GUI,
also it has beem described as an award winning PC somewhere in the early nineties.
the cartridges seen on the right have a weird narrow bit at the bottom, and could possibly be memory expansion carts or something.
so, probably not a famiclone, but a pretty sweet set-up with a timeless design nonetheless.
Old thread resurrection!
I've just bought one of these.
Mine doesn't have the disk drive or the 2x expansion slots.
It does have a TV tuner in it though.
I have the original 'basic' cart and the keyboard. I haven't seen my version ANYWHERE on the net. You can only find the disk versions.
The famicom side works ok, I just need to repair the TV part. It has horizontal collapse at the moment.
I am so glad to see a necropost that isn't spam ;D
Can you post some pics of it?
Sure!You cannot see attachments on this board.
Famiclone side works if you inject +5vdc directly into it and output directly from it to another screen.You cannot see attachments on this board.
