That's wild, if true. It seems... wrong to be using surplus parts from a decent platformer to ship more copies of a damned baseball game.

As for recent Fami-finds... I picked up quite a bit of stuff with my Christmas gift money over the past month and a half. Unfortunately, the goods didn't really start to show up until after the turn of the new year, and I've been so obsessed with the Beat Every NES Game challenge on Nintendo Age that I've still got a dozen Famicom carts in my room that I haven't tested yet.

Among the things I have gotten around to playing, I picked up a Vaus controller for Arkanoid, a copy of Don Doko Don 2, SDF, and Star Wars (Namcot... thanks, senseiman!). Among the things I'm still going to get around to testing someday soon: Daiku no Gen-San 2 (thanks, Nightstar!), Kero Kero Keroppi no Splash Bomb, Great Battle Cyber, Twinbee 3, Flying Hero, and the Felix the Cat pirate sequel (again, thanks to Nightstar).

Daiku no Gen-San 2 (thanks, Nightstar!)

No problem.

the Felix the Cat pirate sequel (again, thanks to Nightstar).

And no problem, enjoy them. I absolutely adored the creative boss battles in Daiku No Gen-San 2, though the game is overall less polished than the original, it's still quite good.

My new stuff

Hi!

I bought a famicom disk system and "Solomon no Kage" from the user Senseiman.

FDS had a broken belt.

I already had a belt to FDS. Today I replaced the belt and calibrated the device. I bought Super Metriod FDS and twice I do not know why I got stuck playing the game, but now I played an hour and everything works well I'm happy. I had to buy a voltage transformer 110V/220V. In Europe, the voltage is 220v and 110v in Japan. Everything works, I'm happy )

Glad you're having a lot of fun with it!  I myself still don't have a working FDS.  I will get one.  Going to aim for the rare red and tan Twin Famicom.  One day...

Here there are some of my pickups from this year.
January 7 (yeah, it's already close to the end of February, but I haven't posted it earlier for some reason :/)

Earthworm Jim 3
Ferrari GP Challenge
Flintstones - The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy
Final Mission
Grand Combat (aka. Chip & Dale)
Super Bros. 6 (aka. Tiny Toon Adventures)
Robocop 4 (aka. Robocop 3)
Monster in my Pocket
2-in-1 (Captain America, Flash Batman)
6-in-1 (Road Fighter, Excite Bike, F-1 Race, Zippy Race, Mach Rider, City Connection)
28-in-1 (Mortal Kombat II Hummer Team, Tecmo World Cup Soccer, Track&Field, Super Mario Bros, F-1 Race, Battle City, Road Fighter, Excitebike, Zippy Race, Exerion, Star Force, Sky Destroyer, Macross, Dig Dug, Bomberman, Pac-Man, Lode Runner, Circus Charlie, Duck Hunt, Magic Jewelry)
75-in-1 (Dr.Mario, The Legend of Kage, Lunar Ball, Road Fighter, Tennis, Galaxian)

And my very recent pickups.

Yeah, I got these extensive multicarts that have a lot of games on them as opposed to these 9999999in1 type of carts.
150 in 1 Real Game and 400 in 1 Real Game.
Well, the first multicart is pretty self-explanatory. You can even check out the review of it by PirateGamingHeavy for closer look at the games included in it

But 400 in 1... Let's say that it's kind of like "23+222 in 1 Real Game" multicart, except with more games on it and fewer repeats. The list of the games is quite long, and I was able to play only a few games on it yet, but this cart is awesome for the most part. (I might post a list about all the included games later here or on my blog) The plastic case is not too bad, but it feel cheap and the cart is very light.
But the best thing that I found about it is that it works without graphical glitches on a real hardware! I am not kidding. I bought it and didn't even modify it at all and it works great, so if you hate glob-top, NOaC Famiclones and/or PAL slowdown (unlike me that's tolerable for me), you can buy it straight away and play on Famicom with no problem.

Here's the blurry picture as a little proof (sorry, my phone camera sucks

I am happy to see you have it working!!  Hope it gives you many years of FDS fun!

Living in Japan I have lots of great finds, many of which end up in my auctions, so I don't think I've ever even posted on this thread before.  But this time I just couldn't resist!!  My best find ever!!!  If you want to be really jealous then click the spoiler.
