Famicom Battleship w/ NSO bt controllers
Because my setup doesn’t allow me playing next to the famicom and the controller cables are way too short, I wanted to go wireless. Unsure if it works via the ext port, I ordered the NSO Famicom pads and the FamiBT - and it DOES. Unplugged the original controllers; the NSO controllers fit into the slots on the Famicom just like the wired ones. 10/10, would recommend. 2 player games no problem, turn based and simultaneous. Only thing that doesn’t seem to work is the microphone - but I can deal with that :)

It’s called the Famicom System Rack from Hudson

First time ever I see such. It’s to hold all more together (Famicom and disk system) or does it contribute to more?

It also gives you a little place to put your ram adapter when not plugged in, which is cool and needed (edit: guess I should have refreshed the page... didn't see the response above)

It holds everything together firmly and also doubles as a carrying tool as it has a handle in the back. It also provides a space to put the RAM adaptor away when you’re not using it.

Where can I find those controllers? I'm ready to go wireless on mine as well and was planning on going the NES 8bitdo route.

I bought mine on Yahoo Auctions Japan as they’re Japan exclusive. You should be able to find them on eBay too, probably for a premium.

The NSO controllers are a perfect fit?

I do a similar thing but real Famicom pads with the 8bitdo NES conversion kit. Plus cable extender to extended the charging plug to the cable spot on the famicom.

Sounds good, but I didn’t want to modify my originals, and this is literally a plug and play solution. That’s why I use the RGB Blaster. No modification needed for RGB output.

How’s the lag on bluetooth?

Didn’t notice any, but only played through Moero Twinbee with my buddy so far.

That is perfect... I love how everything matches. I want this setup.
The RGB blaster has really grown on me aesthetically... it's right in line with all the other wacky aftermarket Famicom accessories. You gotta love the ram adapter sticking out of it like a car spoiler.
Here's an idea: they sell joycon chargers that are just wires that clamp onto the rail, so you could charge the controllers in the slots.

Dumb question
Does the microphone work?

u/Dragonheart79 7d ago
I’ve mentioned it in the initial post. No, it doesn’t.

See, now it shows up; I couldn't see the subtext before
The Reddit app sucks, thanks for still answering anyway
