About Me


About time I updated this freaking thing!

For those who already know me, I am Monodi. Those who doesn't, well, I am Monodi.

I got such a growing passion of gaming through the years and now I am currently in college starting my courses of Game Design as well!

I consider myself a Nintendo fanboy from all my life, but I have been much more in contact with titles for PC recently. Not that I am abandoning one, but I think it pretty much could cover the best the industry has to offer.

I am up for the philosophy that gameplay is more important than graphics, but I think graphics and technology are also a crucial part of the industry and experience even.

Games I love and recommend in no particular order

Rhythm Heaven (DS)
Half-Life 2 (PC/XBOX)
Team Fortress 2(PC)
Drill Dozer (GBA)

What Nintendo doesn't want you to know about the POWER PLAYER
Monodi | 7:31 PM on 06.24.2009 11 comments


I bet you have found one of these before, those joggy Nintendo 64 controllers that stick directly to your TV and have a ton of NES games which most are unworthy.

Yeah, they are UTTER garbage.

However there is one single detail that suddenly makes it amazing



Alecjahn shares about neat console finds and eBay purchases in his channel, but this time he showed us that the POWER PLAYER (or SUPER JOY) has a Famicom in it.

A FAMICOM?!

For 3 Dollars?!



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

That thing is one giant miserable pile of false hopes after another.

That's awesome lol, I lmao when it finally worked. I think your best bet is just to mod the shell to make it feel more famicom like. Maybe even make it a fat famicom controller?

That's awesome. Well at least the thing isn't a total loss. I'm sure I've spent 3 dollars on much worse things...now if only it played Super Famicon games I'd be hitting up ebay and all the local thrift stores for one.

dude needs to edit his videos, but otherwise that is some bizarre hardware. You gotta love the audacity of cheap knockoffs.

Whoa. Mind blown to Heaven. But that dude sounds like he's trying to talk dirty to us. Very creepy.

So the mistery of what the hell that ugly pin reader thats sticking out of the control is solved
I have one of these things somewhere in my garage that I bought in one of those little stands that sell crap in the middle of the mall for like fifteen buck so yeah i got ripped off:( but my issue with this is the superjoy already has pretty much any nes game worth playing in the memory. In a language I understand! SO if I ever started buying famicom cartridges I'd just pay the extra cash for the famicom. Ever since I started watching Gamecenter CX I've just thought they look so damn sexy and sleek compared to the nes.
