The game shown was not 7 Grand Dad, it was Dian Shi Ma Li. Based on the Gambling machines. Grand Dad actually copied the sprite and replaced the F on fake mario's cap with 王 which is a chinese Letter for Wang.
It would have been really cool if they had made it actually working cart too. It would be cool to put some kind of everdrive style cart in this kind of cart.
Funny enough the shell is an exact replica of the original nes carts, you could mount a nes cartridge game in it as it's the same mold and it should work.
The Nintendo world championships original gold cartridge is one of the most rare games in existence with a value of $15000 or more. Just a little fun fact, game on!
It sounds nice on paper, but the whole idea of what made the NES championship cart, was that it was limited. It would be pointless on its value and honestly be a harsh move based on how the game was specifically made during a timed event and a competition nearly more than 30 years ago
My guy, they could NOT have released an NES board with it because they do not use the machinery required to produce those game PCB’s anymore. They would basically have to invest even more than double what they did to release the anniversary cartridge, in order to purchase machinery to manufacture the PCB’s. Then the price of the Cartridge automatically doubles, if not triples to make their money back on a slim market.
@@HylianMaster-ls2ps yeah, from people who bought the tech that Nintendo used to use, or repurposing boards of games with no value. Neither of which Nintendo possess or wants to purchase. Again it would have literally tripled the price because they would have to invest a hell of a lot more money to manufacture them at a rate where they can be sold on a mass scale. Millions of units is alot more expensive and harder to produce than a few thousand by a long shot.
@@TheOnlyRealSquid NES homebrew and repro games are freshly manufactured PCBs and all new components, not Cannibalized old games. They make All that, and it sells a ton.
@@TheOnlyRealSquid I wouldn't be humiliated if I misread something on a TH-cam comment. And in this case, I didn't. You're confidently incorrect and arrogant. Good luck going through life like that sis
They could have but realistically how many people still own a working nes? They probably just didnt see a reason bc they assume most people just wouldn't have a way to use it
Hell yeah thats awesome ! I have one workingbnes and my son loves to play russian attack , and the original legend of zelda .... he loves to see how much better the games have gotten since thev1980"s my go games were metal gear legend of zelda tysons punch out all the mario bros and duck hunt , and so many more .... it was a great time to be a kid when video games were actually getting good graphics andvgood sound , and the computers were making games like doom and the RPG GAMES LIKE KINGS QUEST WERE PRETTY DAMN COOL IMO.......... @gavindixon15
I mean yeah it would be really cool to have an actual working game but you got to think the last NES games came off the presses back in the 90s. The machines that you would require to create those old school chips and the programming work around so you would have to take new computers and program the old microchips. It would probably make the process 10 times more difficult and make the cartridges ridiculously expensive. They probably had some really old inventory of old Nintendo game shells and they just repurpose them for this. Regardless though even if they made them from scratch a plastic injection mold system is not that hard to create a NES cartridge shell. You got to remember this is a Nintendo we're talking about. On the Nintendo switch you have to pay $60 to get a game that came out in the early 2000s. Nintendo is the ultimate company of finding really easy and cheap ways to grow their wealth exponentially.
OK now that is just stupid as hell. Like first of all, the cartridges were WAY bigger than they needed to be, so when you were still buying cartridges you were paying for like 75% empty space. Second, the BOXES did the same damn thing, packing them with cardboard to make them bigger on store shelves. Not quite as egregious, but again about 20% of the box was empty space. This is LITERALLY JUST SELLING EMPTY SPACE
You used Zelda 2 in your vid. It made me think of my grandfather. He was explaining to me the new power he got. He was sitting in his chair. Picked his feet up, acted like he was thrusting a sword past his feet. "Link stabs his sword downward as he jumps!'. As an adult I realize it was the little kid inside him being really excited to explain it to me.
I think would be too much trouble to make a new game that requires an old nes, many people would be angry, not having a nes, they wouldn’t be able to play it.
No they couldn't have released an actual cartridge. 🤦🤦🤦. Nintendo hasn't produced rom cartridges since the final runs of the last GBA and N64 games. They have no manufacturing line or contract for something like that. And the DS/3DS/Switch flash based SD cards manufactured by Macronix can't do this.
So they took some old trash thay they had lying around, didn't even put a gane in it and you bought it. Not even a seal of quality because they know it's trash
Does anyone want to buy the wolverine game for your NES lower Castlevania 2 I'm just name a game 🎯 wolverine is about $500 or more for this old school Nintendo I have it if you want it 💯📜👈🏼🤷🏼♂️😺🤠
Amazing - Nintendo also made a cartridge for the 30th Anniversary of Fire Emblem
@NintendoCollecting Nooo way! I've been a huge fan of Nintendo Collecting since I was in middle school! So happy you got your channel back.
Peak TH-camrs conversating? :O
I'll be trilled if Nintendo actually made Grand Dad canon.
same

It would cost way too much money
@@gameoverguy7223why? People make and sell working NES cartridges for homebrew games all the time. There are roughly forty new NES games out yearly.
I don't think it would be too difficult to to swap the board from an ever drive in there. It be worth a try at least.
@@samsaverino8159this is Nintendo we’re talking about, it’s probably precision machined to short out and brick all the popular flash carts lol
@@Benzona your probably right lol
You should really do a mod where you put an actual cartridge's internals in the replica.
... some one has all ready did it ...
That has been done numerous times already.
John Riggs put a repro board for the NWC inside his. It's not THAT hard to do.
@@KamenRiderGumoJohn Riggs is the best
its the same original mold with all screw holes, so you could put a board in from another game
The most big brain move Nintendo could have possibly pulled is making a rickroll that runs inside the NES and putting that on the cartridge
They released lion king on nes in 1995, just wanted to point that out
I think he’s talking about in America. In Japan the last Famicom game was in like 2007.
not a first party release
Funny enough the shell is an exact replica of the original nes carts, you could mount a nes cartridge game in it as it's the same mold and it should work.
Anyone can 3d print an nes cart

FLEENTSTONES????
I have no clue what I was expecting watching this 😭
I was expecting to be let down
"See all that stuff in there, Homer? That's why _your_ robot never worked!"
“You are NOW watching Demeech!“
Did you see that JohnRiggs put a repo in his and made his own?

GRAND DAD IS REAL!!!!!!!!! 😃
All they had to do was reissue the original nes like Atari does with the 2600…..
That song sounds like part way through Ego Check from the Toy Story Sega Genesis game
Honestly I find it so much funnier that you turned on your NES without it being plugged it

"..CALIFOOOORNIA..."
If Nintendo put an actual game in there then the price would be extremely high
Why though? They're not all that expensive to make.
im relieved they didnt, the resale value would be higher than most houses right now, and thats saying something
They could have but realistically how many people still own a working nes? They probably just didnt see a reason bc they assume most people just wouldn't have a way to use it
Plus it would like raise the price of the physical version by like at least $30 or more
I still own a working NES.
I own 6 working NES consoles
Who doesn't have an NES? Or one of the many modern copies that take original cartridges?
Hell yeah thats awesome !

I saw that thumbnail and thought "that's what she said!" 🤣
On the bright side, however, you can at least insert any game cartridge into it if you do it right.

@@togglefire3537 they're available new: NES compatible cartridges with all new components are produced en masse in 2024.
They weren’t bout to spend the money on creating new boards lol. It’s really expensive now especially on
Limited run items like this and fire emblem.
This time I will never get back
OK now that is just stupid as hell. Like first of all, the cartridges were WAY bigger than they needed to be, so when you were still buying cartridges you were paying for like 75% empty space.

This is LITERALLY JUST SELLING EMPTY SPACE
Actually they released a cartridge for the fir emblem 1 special edition (the one that died the same day as mario 35). Tho that ome was made of glass
Someone should make a custom game like NWC and put it in the cartridge.
Just like with Sonic Mania Collecter’s Edition
GRAND DAD! Fleenstones?
"GRANDDAD"
You should put that grand dad bootleg cartridge in the nwc nes edition replica cartridge.
I really thought about buying it. That would’ve been a great bummer.
GRAND DAD
Damm dude put that circuit board zelda game on the world championship nes cartidge. Now
they did make a disclaimer saying it doesnt work when it was announced
I WANTED TO KNOW THIS SO BAD!!!!!
So we waited this long just to get pranked surely noted
Dian Shi Ma Li Caught me Off-Guard
Wait a minute nes carts had a circuit board WHAT!? WHAAAT!?
You used Zelda 2 in your vid. It made me think of my grandfather. He was explaining to me the new power he got. He was sitting in his chair. Picked his feet up, acted like he was thrusting a sword past his feet. "Link stabs his sword downward as he jumps!'.

That is one of the most wholesome comments I've read. Love that story. ❤️
People keep saying Grand Dad even tho it's Fortran the OG Grand Dad.
Great grand dad
the video announcing this actually said it wont work so if you watched it you would know this is a joke miles away
Guess he forgot about the fire emblem cartage
I was shocked 😅
I think would be too much trouble to make a new game that requires an old nes, many people would be angry, not having a nes, they wouldn’t be able to play it.
Buy a reproduction cart and swap the shells
What if it was a re-release of the original NWC cartridge from 1990?
missed opportunity on nintendos end
I got this deluxe edition haven't open because I also got this game digital.
LUMP OF JUNK
GRAND DAD
...
FLEENSTONES?!?!?!
This video is the cause of WWIII
They specifically said “Replica” and not only do they change the art and remove the switches, but they don’t make it playable!
We could put a circuit board in there and get the cartridge to work
It said everywhere NES Game Pak not playable.
Neat nes controller
Using a top loader controller with a vcr nes?? Cmon bro
The cartridge could have had some of the better mini games from the full game lol missed opportunity...
I don’t see why they can’t I mean Atari is releasing new cartridges for the 2600😂🤷🏻♂️
Huge missed opportunity 😕
You should get that wata graded
It literally says on the box that the cartridge is not playable.
Could you take a circuit board and put it in this hollow cartridge and sell it for big money?
In the words of Anakin Skywalker… LIAR!
Mod it and put a repro in it or an everdrive
No they couldn't have released an actual cartridge. 🤦🤦🤦. Nintendo hasn't produced rom cartridges since the final runs of the last GBA and N64 games. They have no manufacturing line or contract for something like that. And the DS/3DS/Switch flash based SD cards manufactured by Macronix can't do this.
I wonder if we could put a cart board inside
Why not? It's not at all hard to get them, flash them, or install them.
Maybe you can exchange the shell with a normal game
Would have actually bought it if they had at least a game
All right now what happens if the game genie into The cartridge and put it in the nes
the heck is that controller-
(shut up and take my money)
Well, that's sad.
Wie sollen die ganzen spiele auf die damalige technik passen?
That's sad. Nintendo COULD have made a real game.
Dang it.
I’m like, only an idiot would buy this. 20 years later an unopened box is worth $1,000,000.
Not a working cart? If it's just a shell & priced higher than $5 I say RIP OFF
What is the purpose of this empty cartridge. What are you supposed to do with it?
i have the rom of nwc and an everdrive n8 i tested it but it couldnt seem to work lol
Nintendoing What Segadid Back with Sonic mania
So all that money for a decoration?
GRANDDAD
Gran dad
Your NES didn't power on either
womp womp
So they took some old trash thay they had lying around, didn't even put a gane in it and you bought it. Not even a seal of quality because they know it's trash
How u did it
Does anyone want to buy the wolverine game for your NES lower Castlevania 2 I'm just name a game 🎯 wolverine is about $500 or more for this old school Nintendo I have it if you want it 💯📜👈🏼🤷🏼♂️😺🤠
Well noooo shiiiiittt
It doesn't work it was stated.
The point of it is....????
That NES console looks terrible, yellowed like old piss! The model 2 looked much better and worked way better also!
It's not worth it.....
