Appears to be a Disk Writer in someone's private collection: https://twitter.com/kazzykazycom/status/594858898969927680/photo/1

So I once shipped an item with SAK (Below Economy Airmail) instead of SAL or EMS. I had to retrieve the package from the Amazon rainforest. The system was a bit dirty, but still worked. Never ship anything with SAK, because they ship packages from JOS.

If anyone's seen the GameCenter CX movie, there's a (real?) Disk Writer in it.  Arino even said in one episode that it was on "special loan" from Nintendo.

It is just a replica.


Oh, haha, yeah.  I didn't bother to look at his other tweets where he shows in-progress photos of it being built. :-[

i want to see it in action.... :D Since there is a tv and disk slot
I always downshift near a hybrid, so they can hear me hurt the environment...

Had me excited for a moment there.

Oh man, the possibilities. Are there no confirmed units still in existence?

I have one of those.  It's a toy.  It is used for Disk storage.

You can see it in this video briefly:

I also saw this machine in the GCCX episode (did not see the movie yet). I did not know about this device before. Was it used to purchase or fix or advertise FDS games?

MaxXimus

It was to purchase and write games To disks.
