Nice, thanks for the info :)

I always wondered what happened to the Kunio games. All the NES/Famicom games are so great to play! I would expect them to move on to the next console(SNES/SFC) but all I ever heard were of river city ransom 2 and the basketball game part 2 of the series.

There's actually a new Kunio-kun dodgeball game coming out for the DS.  It's out in Japan already.

Hello, everybody.

I have a bunch of Famicom games that are in Japanese, and I can't tell what the title of them is.  I was hoping someone on this forum could tell me the names of them.   I have attached photos of them below:























If anyone could tell me the names of the games in English, I would really appreciate it.  Please mention which game in which pic you are identifying.  Thank you.

Hello everyone! I've just started my Famicom collection with this little beauty of a bundle. The seller doesn't seem to know much about the Famicom but from what they have said I think it's an older, possibly original model as it has hard-wired pads, one of which has a mic instead of start / select buttons.



There are eight games with this bundle and the only ones the seller identified specifically are Dig Dug and Lode Runner. I think I can see the main character from Dig Dug on the upper right cart, the one below that looks like it might say Lode Runner, though the resolution is quite poor and it's difficult to make out. There's also what looks to be a baseball game (bottom left) and a mahjong game (opposite the baseball one). The others are a mystery though - the one with what looks like a couple talking in hushed tones is particularly intruiging. The one with the cartoon frog (left hand side) looks really familiar but I can't remember where I've seen those characters before. Could anyone here shed some light on what these are? Thanks in advance to anyone kind enough to help :)



Is that Japanese script on the bottom right of the Famicom? I think it's a clone as it should say Nintendo there.

Oh, good eye.  That's definitely not the official label.

Manuel, thank you very much.  Yes, I noticed that my thread was merged here.  I didn't know this thread existed for this purpose, so I apologize for having created a separate thread.

Also, Manual, thank you very much.  You were more helpful than you can imagine.
