With Sean indisposed, self-appointed Sega guru Sindra teams up with Vinnk to explain the rise of the Mega Drive and Genesis to de-throne Nintendo as the reigning video game super power. Can it truly do what Nintendon't?

We get a visit from the Angry PC Engine Nerd, who is more than happy to explain that HudsonSoft and NEC were the true forerunners of the 16-bit wars, despite weak performance of the PC Engine outside of Japan as the fabled TurboGrafx-16.

Vinnk reveals his decade-long tryst with SNK's Neo Geo Advanced Entertainment System, the one console in the 16-bit generation that made good on its promise of arcade-quality graphics on a home console, and the hefty price tag to back it up.

We take a look at the Sega Power Base Converter add-on device that lets you play Sega Master System games on your Genesis and other backwards compatibility with Sega's 8-bit gaming machine.

We take a closer look at the TurboGrafx-16 and the Turbo Booster -- an enormous add-on that gave the console AV output capabilities... and little else! The Turbo Booster Plus gives it a bit more kick with some onboard RAM, but the feature wouldn't help with most games.

SeanOrange and Vinnk explain why using the NES AC power supply with a Famicom is a bad, terrible idea, and what alternatives you may have if your trusty DC Famicom adapter burns out.

This week we talk about why the Famicom Disk System is able to use six AA batteries, and whether or not the battery tray is a viable solution for your Famicom gaming needs. Also -- an "experiment".

We explain how to hook up your Famicom (RF) or Twin (AV) to your TV. NOTE: These instructions are for North American NTSC sets ONLY. We intend to cover NTSC-to-PAL conversions in the future.

Together at a convention for the first time since Tokyo Game Show 2007, SeanOrange and Vinnk field a question about homebrew Famicom games at No Brand Con 2009 (in SPAAAAAACE!) in Eau Claire, WI.

Vinnk scours the Rising Stuff store for the rarest Famicom game/accessory he has available: the FMC Disk Checker! Also, Sean shares his collection of Rare games.

The Famicom is able to sit on top of the Disk System, but is there any way to keep it locked into that position like most of the other console add-ons known to man and woman? Famicom Dojo has the answers!

In this Denshimail, we answer some questions about the Sega Power Base Converter's compatibility with different versions of the Sega Genesis, and one game that infamously can't be played: F-16 Fighting Falcon.

Famicom controllers have nice, metal faceplates, but they're prone to scratching, discoloration, and the paint flaking off. Even if you can find a new one, how do you replace it when the controller cables disappear into the back of the system?
