Depends on how much you alter the clock speed, but I don't think it is an issue. You can check my Youtube video above to hear the difference.

Also, if anyone is interested, I have 2,09MHz, 2,50MHz, 2,61MHz and 2,82MHz speeds in stock, if someone wants me to mod his/her NES

A step-by-step guide is on the way too! ;D

Mmmm...
Very good!
The difference is noticeable, and the sound is great!
But what are those glitches?
Are those because of the recording or due to the mod?

It's my shitty 30 bucks TV tuner card (it looked worse, that's the best I could get of it).

OK!
I will try that later!
Some of the better shooting games have this slo-mo
sickness! I think that it would be great to play them
again at full speed!!  :D
Especially Parodius!

Well, my choice was Parodius because the slow down
alter the gameplay too much for me!
But yes, I do like all the Parodius games!
I even bought the Paro Wars PSX game!

I breathe Parodius. I own the Famicom game and the 3 Super Famicom games! Got to grab a Saturn for Sexy Parodius.

Hey 133MHz, could you possibly make a video playing Megaman 2 (Metal Man's stage) on overclocked NES? that whole section is plauged by sprite flickering, and I want to see just how good the overclocked NES is at handling the flicker.

This is very freaking cool.  I wouldn't mind having one of these either.

Overclocking is a great idea especially if you have a spare system to do it on. Overclocking increases the heat on the CPU, did you add some heat sinks to the CPU to help with that? If not you could cook your CPU if you run it overclocked for too long. Look into overclocking on wikipedia if you guys want more info on the pluses and minuses of doing an overclock.
Your not cleared for that.

The NES Ricoh 2A03 CPU runs at a paltry 1.79 MHz, even overclocking it insanely like 4 MHz would not make it produce enough heat even to get the thing warm to the touch. The thing has like 1/100th the power of a 1992 PC ;D   and those didn't even required heatsinks on their processors :P

So did you ever write that guide on how to do it? :P
