What We Did Before This Ships Every console we sell is opened up and serviced by hand. We don't just confirm it powers on — we look inside. This unit was fully disassembled and cleaned internally; dust was removed from all components. All boards and electrical contacts were cleaned with ethanol and a fast-drying, residue-free electronics cleaner to remove oxidation and residue. Moving mechanical parts were lubricated with a light application of silicone grease for smooth, quiet operation. (We do not apply grease to electrical contacts — they are cleaned only.) Electrolytic capacitors are replaced only when there is visible corrosion or leakage — nothing more, nothing less. For console families known for capacitor failure, a full recap is performed as standard. If a console cannot be properly restored, we do not sell it. After reassembly, the unit is tested with an actual game: video, sound, and controller input are all confirmed. Before we seal the box, we power the console on one more time and confirm it is still working. Every console includes 30 days of support after it reaches you. A note on power: this console uses Japan's 100V standard. Buyers in North America (120V) are advised to use a step-down transformer or a multi-voltage power supply; buyers in Europe (230V) will require a step-down transformer to use an original 100V adapter safely. In your home: US or Canada — TV: with an AV cable made for this console, plug the yellow/red/white ends into your TV and the picture shows as normal — no converter needed. TV (RF switch): the RF switch sends the picture over an analog channel, so it shows on TVs that can still receive analog (RF) broadcasts — older CRT sets, and flat-screen TVs that still have an analog tuner. It will not show on TVs in PAL countries such as the UK, Europe or Australia. US or Canada (120V) — power: please don't plug this Japanese 100V equipment straight into the wall. Run it through a 120V→100V step-down transformer (not included). UK, Europe or Australia (230–240V) — power: plugging it straight into the wall will burn it out. Use a 230V→100V step-down transformer (not included). A note on region: This is a Japanese Famicom. It accepts Famicom cartridges, which use a different 60-pin connector than the 72-pin NES cartridges sold in North America and Europe — they are not physically interchangeable without an adapter. If anything here isn't covered, just ask — questions are always welcome. Show more
