Before I clicked on the link I was hoping for more of rhinostrich's hard-hitting futuristic cyberpunk face-smashing music. And it delivered!

I only wish this was an EP / LP!

Psst...you dudes heard of Arto's NESFunkyFlash?

Also I guess he did Super Pakpak which is hella rad

Oh, cool - I didn't make the connection between Super Pakpak and the FunkyFlash! Super Pakpak is so cool, btw - like Solar Jetman mixed with Worms or something! smile

Sorry about that! I don't have the noise on mine. It may be because I modded my x|k prosound NES, which has a separate power supply and other measures to prevent that shit to begin with..

Cool, man!

Now, load up Gimmick (Japanese version) and listen to one of the best Famicom soundtracks of all time! It uses the FME-07.

Hold Select and then press Start (on title screen) for a sound test, too.

I could be wrong, but don't the top loading NES/Famicoms not have a lock out chip ergo no blinking?

forgive the horrid grammar.

Yep, that's correct.

DISmantle87 asked me this question via private message:

Now to my question: I am curious to know, how you make sure you're NES doesn't fail on you during shows and all that? With all the blue/blinking screen the NES often does. Do you have special tips for maintaining a certain stability?

I thought it would be good to post my answer here:

Well, to be honest, I rarely have problems with my systems. However, I should say that I use 3 at a time with a video mixer. So, that means two are mixed in at any one time with a third used to load new ROM's. So, if one does fuck up, I can just mix it out.

However, if you are using one system - make sure you replace the 72 pin connector. That will fix 95% of your problems. Also, make sure you clean every cart before you put it in the NES after the connector is cleaned - or you will just transfer dirt to it. After replacing the connector, carts should fit really tight. I don't even push mine down. That also helps - they can kind of bounce a little if the bass is heavy or drunk people hit your table.

Finally, look up a tutorial for disabling the lockout chip. This can help as well. If you do this, its less likely you'll get blinking / flashing. This usually occurs when the lockout chip in the NES can't connect with one on the cart - and usually happens because of dirt and shit on the contacts of the cart.
