 Made by [[Sharp]]. Single unit incorporating Famicom and the disk drive. Have mono composite out.
-Two main versions. Original has that nice curved bump on top, and no power light. Disk drives in these have no write restrictions, so are good if you want to write full games to disks. Revision has turbo-fire on the controllers.
