Official Description
The Super 8 bit is a new game console design that can play any Nintendo NES or Famicom game cartridge. By using the original CPU and PPU, the most authentic gameplay experience is recreated with greatly enhanced audio and video capabilities. The Super 8 bit will work with nearly all accessories for NES or Famicom.
The CPU and PPU chips need to be de-soldered and removed from an original NES or Famicom console. A NESRGB or Lava RGB add-on board is required for RGB video & s-video output.
The newest v4.1 design now uses only one PCB, with controller ports, Famicom expansion connector, and power / reset switches on the main PCB. This makes assembly easier than earlier Super 8 PCBs. Parts count has also been reduced and the optional Famicom microphone circuit has been moved to a separate PCB. (parts for microphone circuit not included)
Features:
- Dual cartridge slots and no lockout chip allow playing 8 bit Nintendo games from any region.
- Compatible with 100% of the entire NES and Famicom game library.
- Compatible with Everdrive and PowerPak flash carts.
- Two NES controller ports.
- 15 pin Famicom accessory connector for compatibility with Japanese Famicom accessories.
- Custom stereo sound circuit with adjustable gain for each channel.
- Supports audio input from Famicom games with built-in sound enhancement chips or the Famicom Disk System.
- Included microphone PCB works like the Famicom controller 2 microphone.
- Can be assembled without a NESRGB for composite video only, or with a NESRGB to add s-video and RGB.
- Designed for easy NESRGB installation with a Genesis 2 compatible A/V connector for RGB video output.
- Efficient switching 1.5A regulator provides plenty of power to system and accessories without overheating.
