"That's a good question, but a little tricky. First things first: do not use your NES adaptor with the Famicom! The NES adaptor outputs 9v AC, but your Famicom requires 9v DC. You will need to find a suitable adaptor somewhere [9/10v DC, 850MA, Negative Tip is good]. If you get an old Famicom with RF only, then you will either need to find an old television set with analogue tuning [and UHF perhaps], or modify the Famicom somehow to get the audio/video directly. Hook up the Famicom via RF and start searching for its signal on your television set. Sometimes I've found the Famicom signal between North American channels 3 and 4; sometimes I've found it in a UHF channel. You can either do that, or if you're good with electronics, hunt for the [weak] A/V signals directly on the Famicom PCB. The newer Famicom is simplicity itself. You need the same 9v DC adaptor, and a SNES/SFC Multi-AV cable. The Multi-AV cable plugs directly into the back of the AV Famicom."

Completely understandable.
I'd do extensive research before buying myself. If you part with cash (and quite a bit) you should make sure what you're buying will work properly, or even at all in some cases. |
