To celebrate 800 subscribers on youtube, I've gone and made my most extensive review of a Famiclone ever.

Come learn all there is to know about Innovation's TriStar/Super 8, released in 1995 for the SNES - a device that lets you play NES and Famicom games right on your SNES.

That was really interesting, a Famiclone that actually is pretty decent very nice. Also I searched through a few of your other vids and that vintage Panasonic CRT you have is really nice, hopefully you can figure out the RGB port on the back of it. Congrats on 800 subs  :D

Thanks. That 1984 ColorPilot is beautiful, but it needs a full capacitor replacement, so I've retired it to another room until I can find someone who is willing to do that for an acceptable price. Its a mammoth job.

So it sounds like a good buy then, eh?  I've looked at these things for YEARS and wondered if they're worthwhile.  It would be nice to have one less system hooked up and they're all over eBay at a really decent price.  Maybe it's time.  Thanks for the very thorough review ;D
