the guy who owns a Famicom and admin of FamiWiki (24) (profile picture by Akfamilyhome) 591/1042 Famicom cartridges https://ko-fi.com/bro3256https://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mlmt6y55ms2kSorry for the wait, but I went ahead and scanned this label! I also went ahead and mirrored this scan on both FamiWiki and the Lost Media Wiki. I also plan on uploading this to the Internet Archive, though as of the time of writing I am having issues uploading there.

That means I had purchased on average at least a single Famicom cartridge every single week between September 2024 to May 2026.07 May 2026 04:56 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlagheecv22whttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mla5pksx5k2lIn regards to the recent Star Fox announcement, did you know this game is technically a compilation of 3 Namco developed Famicom games? Yes I created this page just today. https://famiwiki.net/wiki/Star_Fox:_Assault07 May 2026 02:20 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mla5pksx5k2lhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3ml5sja6e4k2sNintendo really making us go through extreme lengths just to watch YouTube videos. Anyways here's the commercial for Rockman played on the Nintendo Switch 2.06 May 2026 03:54 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3ml5sja6e4k2shttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mkwfyhft5s2zSo uh did Nintendo already forget they had a Virtual Boy app? Last time they updated was in March, and that was a couple weeks after the app initially released. The rest of the announced games are coming this year, so what the heck is the hold up?03 May 2026 05:21 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkwfyhft5s2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mktzf7lcfc2yBeen seeing more talk about secondhand prices for video games recently, a lot of that discussion boils down to saying something like "this is why emulation is important" which really undermines the other ways of playing games. Like you do realize flash carts and soft mods exist, right?02 May 2026 06:30 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mktzf7lcfc2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mkrrrysasc2sI really hope there are people out there who genuinely find FamiWiki to be useful whether that be for the known and popular things to the extremely niche stuff. It is also completely ad-free for your browsing pleasure.

Also keep and mind I am using first party controllers so this is all official.29 Apr 2026 23:30 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkoaydx4as2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mkmn6kxgac2rSo turns out FamiWiki is for whatever reason a cited source in the German Wikipedia article about the Namco game Battle City. Probably not a good idea to source a wiki but this is funny on its own.29 Apr 2026 08:03 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkmn6kxgac2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mkiy2w4zq22lTried out Super ZSNES and while its a cool novelty to try out these "enhancements" I really don't see much of a reason why you'd want to use this over the well established software emulators we have today. Also rubs me the wrong way that the enhancements are on by default, not the other way around.27 Apr 2026 21:07 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkiy2w4zq22lhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mkeaod575k26I'm so glad we are rediscovering the original Japanese sources that western press outlets straight up stole without credit.

How is one puzzle game singular but another a series?22 Apr 2026 01:44 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mk2epfm6h22zhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mjzsl5ssjk2nReposting an old thread of mine here, but I've noticed that folks are getting confused regarding how Famicom and NES games were released in the arcades. The VS. System and PlayChoice-10 are often confused as the same but they're completely different in how they operate. 🧵21 Apr 2026 20:19 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjzsl5ssjk2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mjydljkmms2aThis genuinely might be the most documentation of the NES Color a Dinosaur on the internet. Something that nobody asked for but we at @famiwiki.net delivered...

If only the readers at the time knew just how valuable this software would become in the future...20 Apr 2026 16:51 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjwwiumq2c2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mjsv5vnwls2qSomething irked me when I saw the reporting on the public reveal of the Neo Geo+ AES, something along the lines of it being "better than emulation" as it uses ASICs to re-create the original hardware. I don't think that inherently makes it better, it's just different.19 Apr 2026 02:17 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjsv5vnwls2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mjn6ouqfps2mYeah the new Tomodachi Life is peak, enjoying it so far.16 Apr 2026 19:51 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjn6ouqfps2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mjhan5grec2y40 years ago, a cassette-based add-on for the Famicom was rolled out in Japan called the Study Box. It was an educational-based system that was only available via rental to students of a specific school course. I managed to uncover some more photos of the Model 1000 unit from issue 5 of Famimaga.14 Apr 2026 11:10 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjhan5grec2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mjf35oxgk225While browsing around for Famicom related material, I stumbled upon some interesting pre-release info. On the left is racing game "3D Rally" by HAL Labs set to be released for the Disk System on December 20, 1987. On the right is the RPG "Bible 1999" by Imagineer which never released for Famicom.13 Apr 2026 14:27 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjf35oxgk225https://bsky.app/profile/bro3256.com/post/3mjbjjl557k2y3 years of a website existing deserves a cake, right?12 Apr 2026 04:33 +0000at://did:plc:odt5jue4fpfofdfeeda6pfzo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjbjjl557k2y
