Alright everyone, so I got me a real gem right here for 15 bucks.
What this is, apparently it's an NTSC NES Clone from '91. I found more info on it on reddit
size comparison to a real NES left and a bootleg NES Mini right.

According to this reddit post I found:
https://www.reddit.com/r/nes/comments/rji9kz/the_nes_creation_clone/

Assuming it's the same system, I guess it's a Creation NTSC NES Clone with high quality chips and everything like early 90's NES and Famicom clones used to be. It makes me miss my early 90's PAL Famiclone even more which I don't have anymore.
The system is compatible with original NES Controllers which is very important, tho the one that came with it isn't half bad.


Size comparison between my real NES and the NES Mini Bootleg with 620 built in games, that thing actuall has some neat games in it too, but more on that some other time.

 it runs Original Famicom games, the ones that can fit in it with an adapter FLAWLESSLY, here's some Gameplay of kid Dracula:

I tested a few original Famicom games and they worked flawlessly





The system is region free, but it doesn't deal well with many PAL games.
It has issues, especially in games with those HUDS at the bottom.
They range from slight twitchiness while the games are perfectly playable.

Here's videos of Surprise at Dinosaur Peak (PAL I assume, early 90's Bootleg) and original Kirby and Panic Restaurant carts

Flintstones - bootleg - PAL I assume Bootleg I've had since forever, it never did this on my early 90's PAL Famiclone

I'm going to absolutely get my hands on more NTSC games if I can now, I am building a great famicom collection so I'm going to re-buy Kirby and a few other cheap ones I own in PAL format as well to test them on this thing but they won't be here for months. I might also get some NTSC bootlegs off of ali express to see if they work

Some after market games work flawlessly such as Hummer Team's SNES to NES port of Aladdin



Now the following is the Flying Carpet Aladdin hack . The NES Clone is completely incompatible with any of my copies of the flying carpet Aladdin 3 hack, the games freeze as soon as you hit start to play the game on the title screen


And some like Lion King 5 are unplayable due to the HUD issue which was not the case on my old PAL Famiclone

Surprisingly enough my Tom & Jerry bootleg had major major issues while my PAL Original works flawleslsy

The original PAL Tom & Jerry works fine for the most part


the bootleg is inside the console and the original which works fine on top

Might not just be a PAL NTSC issue but also a mapper issue
either way original Famicom games work flawlessly if they can fit into the thing

Another important thing is, the NES is "region free" so it lets me play my PAL A games as well
Rodland worked FLAWLESSLY, it won't boot on my PAL B NES due to it being a PAL A Game



Another bootleg that has the HUD issue is my Felix the Cat famiclone cart, the game plays fine but the HUD is all twitchy too

So bottom line is, I'm beyond impressed with the thing but I can't figure out why some games have such severe issues with their HUDs, it's always the HUD at the bottom that is the problem in these games but the games themselves play just fine.

I'm absolutely blown away by what I got!
I hope it works well for a while
I had one like this a while back and it died instantly but this one has been working fine all day today so here's hoping for the best.

I do wish to figure out what the HUD issue is in all these games tho. I can't do electronics or open the system up or anything, I just don't do that kinda stuff and physically am unable to but if someone has info on why it might be happening let me know.

EDIT:
I tried my original PAL Little Samson and while it works without problems, the game is much faster than what I'm used to, the music is faster too.
Here I compare it to Little Samson running on my Famicom Mini where it runs as it should

So this is definitely an NTSC system

Some PAL games work FLAWLESSLY! I played Adventure Island 2 this morning for quite some time and had no issues, some are faster than they should be and some have the HUD issues as seen above.
NTSC games seem to all work perfectly.

 I placed an order for the RETROAD but that requires a converter to read Famiclone/famicom carts and it's far too expensive with the converter yet a video I watched showed some graphical issues my old, childhood famiclone from the early 90's did not have in TMNT III Manhattan project.

 I'm looking for a famiclone that would run all these strange bootleg carts I own well and one that is fairly decently built. The Famiclone I bought in '92 or 93 didn't have built in games or anything but it was a sturdy beast that worked until 2009 or so...I regret throwing it away might just have been the AC adapter I normally never throw stuff away.

I bought two Terminators both dead, fortunately they were like 3 bucks a pop locally so whatever.

I attatched a pic of my childhood famiclone I threw away like a bloody moron in 2009 but I took pics of it so I could find another and never did. I've found similar famiclones, but they've all been dead or died shortly after and those had built in games.
it came in an original NES like box, it said ACTION SET on the box and had the NES family on it but with the famiclone pasted over the NES.

My famiclone displayed NES Accurate colors for example, the sky in Mario was that nice purpleish tint not the blue sky many later famiclones would display.

I recently picked up some tiny NES Mini clone locally for 8 bucks, dirt cheap but it has a surprisingly good selection of games, displays more or less accurate colors and all, however games such as Whomp 'em, Banana Prince and surprisingly even Circus Charlie have graphical glitches old famiclones did not have.
I attached a pic of that too.

I have a convertor for my NES to run famiclone carts but even tho it does read them it keeps resetting and not the kind of resetting where it can't read the cart, but you can see the game botting up, then it resets like it rejects it for being a bootleg, the convertor says to hold reset 1-3secs if it happens but that never works.

I also own an original famicom, but I don't have sufficient power supply for that to run it here in Europe yet (unless a model 1 Mega Drive PSU really does work I'm too scared to try) but I don't think an official Famicom would read all these weird ass famiclone carts I own, some from what I know use weird mappers and stuff normally not used on the NES and Famicom hence why the "Dandy" compatibility in emulators these days.

I have no way of finding anything functional and in good condition in my country anymore, surprising since the famiclone was the default "Nintendo" here in Macedonia. So my only option is ali express.

 I live in Europe, Macedonia and while pretty much everything was available here when it comes to consoles and gaming in general, unlike in other Slavic countries at the time, famiclones and famiclone games were still exceptionally popular.

 I had a huge library of early-mid 90's famiclone carts alongside my original game collection but sadly I lost most of my famiclone carts in 2006 and have been unable to find old style carts since. People here tend to sell a ton of these bootlegs but it's mostly stuff from '98 onwards when the quality of label art, the cart shells themselves and even the contents of the cartridges drastically dropped.

I have a few old school early-mid 90's famiclone carts left among my many newer ones so I was hoping if you guys could confirm that these are indeed older releases.
I wish I could get more

Early-Mid 90's famiclone carts in my experience had:
- game accurate label art
- higher quality builds, often they were much heavier than the ones form the late 90's and early 00's
- multi carts had less repeats and higher quality games

Many of these old carts had that "Cassette" guarantee on the back
