- caddyalan, on 04/09/2008, -1/+2There are quite a few "Famicom clones" which are very similar to the NES/Famicom hardware, and which use original carts. But I've only heard of a few which are portable. So for those who can't solder their own machines, several exist. However, I recall that some Famiclones have difficulty with 8-bit games that have unusual mappers.
