i have a famicom and famicom disk system

[satoshi_matrix]

Of course I own a Famicom, what kind of question is that?! But I prefer the AV Famicom to any other model.

I own the original famicom along with the disk system.  I own about 30 cartridge games and about 7 disk system games.  Looking to get more to build my collection, especially among the disk system games

[SuperMarioBrosSuperShow]

One question I have, is when people talk about getting an AV Famicom, are they talking about the model 2 famicom (which was basically the same as the model 2 NES, the top loading version) or are they talking about a regular famicom that is AV modded?

model 2

The Model 2 I suppose you could call it. Nintendo simply called it the Famicom, but since the box states AV on it I, as well as a lot of other people, call it the AV Famicom. I mean, I think its my favorite system of all time. Not only does it look slick, it is able to plug in any NES controller, its small and light, its toploading, and it even uses the same AV cable that the SNES/N64/Gamecube uses! Too bad the Wii had to switch to a new design!

I have

Japanese Version Famicom


Taiwanese version Famicom (it doesn't work crap because it's different than the Japanese one) Planning to sell it.

and

Japanese Famicom with AV modded.

Does the AV Famicom differ at all from the NES top loader (aka the model 2 NES) other than the pin size?

[kite200]

it has av outs......

Did the NES toploader not have them?  Its been years since I've seen one in person

The NES toploader has RF out only.

[satoshi_matrix]

The NES 2 and AV Famicom are identical exepct for the following:

-NES 2 has 72-pin connector, AV Famicom has 60-pin connector. (obviously)
-NES 2 is RF only, AV Famicom is AV only. The NES 2 uses the same RF adaptor the
'toaster' NES and SNES use. The AV Famicom uses the same AV cable as the SNES, N64 and Gamecube. 
-NES 2 dogbone controllers are 9' long, AV Famicom donbone controllers are 3 or 4' long, dont remember which, but they are the same length as the wired controllers of the first Famicom.

Other than that, they are identical. once you have an AV Famicom, you don't really need anything else. I use it for all my Famicom AND NES needs.
