Super Joy III
« on: November 18, 2012, 11:08:55 AM »
I found this... thing at Value Village yesterday.

I bought it because of this cartridge port on the back.

I thought maybe I could plug a game into it, and that was the purpose. But I was wrong...

This is what I saw when I plugged it into my TV. I guess that's the brand.

And then this popped up! 76,000 games, you say? I doubt it... but so far they're all different.

Still more different games.

This is where it starts to repeat. If there's one thing I don't like about this thing, it's the menus. It starts to repeat games on this screen, but the next few pages still have a few new games mixed in.

Now let's check out some of the more interesting games...

It also came with a gun, which is useless because there aren't any gun games on it.  :huh:

You should be able to plug a cartridge in it, it looks to be a standard 60-pin Famiclone port.

Nice find, how much did it cost?

7 bucks. :dance: Maybe it's a FAMICOM port? Does anyone have a cheap Famicom game that I can test this with?

Ah, I've seen that on Amazon before.  Much more common than the Power Joy that I have.  I heard that it isn't all that great with playing cart games, though I've never tried one of them out before.

I think a friend that lives close to me has the exact version.. AFAIK it's this (or a Mega Joy 2) but it had an intro with a MS Paint sun going down a pole and stuff. There's a video of the intro floating around YouTube, if you wanna check it out.

Edit: Woah, B overload.  :shock:

This would be quite interesting, if my anti-virus didn't despise the links and block them. Could you upload them to imgur or something like that?

They're now on my Imgur page at classicgamer.imgur.com. And one other thing I forgot to add: the analog stick is useless. It doesn't move, it's just... there.

Wow! I just searched the name on Google, and found that they have a Wikipedia article! Turns out this thing is newer than I thought. And on top of that, I actually have the controller that goes with it! I found it at a garage sale this summer.
