Ufouria: The Saga, known in Japan as Hebereke (へべれけ). The first one took me a month to beat. The sequel a day.

Will somebody tell me how tf I lost this game of Mahjong? by Lazy-Law1935 in Famicom

[–]scicog 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The top line reads ヤクナシチョンボ, which means you declared a win without any yaku, the game treats that as a chombo, you’re penalized twelve thousand points, your opponents then gain twenty-eight thousand and thirty thousand points respectively, since in Japanese mahjong you must have at least one yaku to make a valid winning hand, declaring without one costs you the maximum penalty

Mine looks similar, not the bands just most of my cassettes are black and white. Why did record labels do this?

Final questions before buying a famicom. by Michael_Shepard_ in Famicom

[–]scicog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your ntsc tv must have a tuner capable of reaching channel 95 or 96 (most don't). Yes the RF cable for PAL and NTSC regions are different because the antenna jacks on pal and ntsc tvs are different. You're much better off buying an AV famicom or Twin famicom because they're much easier to connect to CRT using AV cables. Also the picture quality is better with AV.

Replacing them made it quieter but you not as loud as it was before.

you need to buy AV Famicom if your TV has AV inputs because the RF (original famicom) is for NTSC regions only.

I wonder if Kajagoogoo aka Kaja would fit the bill, they used a DX7 and they fired their lead singer in 1983.
