SignGuy81 Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 I just came across this on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Used-Flashback-NES-Nintendo-Cartridge-Compatible-/182488518708and was wondering if anyone has came across this before? It looks kinda like the atgames sega genesis but it says it plays NES carts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godslabrat Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 The DB-9 connectors for the controllers are not a promising start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SignGuy81 Posted April 10, 2017 Author Share Posted April 10, 2017 The DB-9 connectors for the controllers are not a promising start My thoughts exactly. Plus too I'm pretty sure it isn't made by the same people who actually own the flashback trademark. Is that atgames now? I used to own an FC Twin console and it was pretty decent and actually took snes controllers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybercylon Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 That does look like an NES slot though. Could just be some cheap clone using it's own controllers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StopDrop&Retro Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Plus too I'm pretty sure it isn't made by the same people who actually own the flashback trademark. I disagree with you there. The logo is so well made it could only have come from the official rights holders, obviously. This is quite a departure for the Flashback series but I welcome it. Especially the advertised PAL & NTSC compatibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7800fan Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I have a Power Joy and unknown mystery Dreamcast look-alike, 2 of the bazillion Famicom clones. The main controller (looks like N64) has a port for second controller and it is 9 pin, and DC lookalike clone has 2 9-pins ports. The original Flashback that looks like mini 7800, they used 9 pin connector as well but the controller doesn't work with real 7800, and the Flashback controller does work on my Famicom clones so the mini 7800's controller ports are based on Famicom design.

Bratwurst Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Dendy & Chinese famiclones have a history of using 9 pin connectors, nothing really special here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
