Micro Genius IQ-1000 (Famiclone) Resto Pt1 

This brought back so many great memories, I had the exact same unit 😊

I loved my Micro Genius. I loved the Micro Genius stores in KL where you could by so many games for dirt cheap. They often had several games on the one cartridge.

I still have one of these, it was my first console lol

i got that since 2014 for 7 usd no wireless controller with few games, with minor power loose at the board.soldered and got fix it myself , and still works well. this is the best micro genius i have looking for the wire controller. i hav only wired.

I had a micro genius growing up. Mine had a different console body, but the wired controller is exactly the same as in this video, except white. One thing to note about the headphone jack is that it's mono, so if you plug in headphones into it, audio would only come out on one side. Drove me nuts when I was kid as I thought it was broken somehow. It was only in my adult life I realised that it's mono because the Famicom only drives mono audio, and knowing those Taiwanese manufacturers, they probably wanted to save a bit of money by only providing a mono audio jack instead of wiring dual mono into a stereo jack. Wish I still had mine. Mum threw mine out ages ago. Great video! Enjoying your content.

I show this video to my kids when they ask me what console I had when I was small. Thank for this video

Hi I am wondering if iq-1000 model's video quality is dark? I have model iq-2000 and somehow the video is much darker compare to other micro genius model (e.g iq-501).

Great wife. Wish mine had shown any interest in my projects.

4:24 Street Fighter II never had a licensed NES port, at all.

The one you have on the table I have seen in Thailand last year. With the yellow buttons too.

Hi, i recently picked up an old famiclone, and its all covered in glossy black plastic, and it has an big weird mark, and i wamt to know how did you do to polish the plastic in this microgenius

hi brother i just found my micro genius but cant find the controller can i buy a replacement maybe you have an idea from where thanks!!

8:10 The two 6516 chips are RAM chips. The two MG chips are the PPU and 6502 clones.

I remember my school friend had one as kids.. he was indian, I thought it was great at the time.. circa 91 92

Tôi có thể nhìn thấy bên trong Light Gun được không ?

Nice video and again well done!

I've had Duracell batteries that are before their best buy date explode as well. I try to use rechargeable batteries wherever I can...

it cant fit into smart tv or led ?

thank to autopsy, very early revision

Could be the date code on the chips 9247 - 47th week of 1992.

So I guess this console goes where Nintendon't, ha ha. You can get an adapter to allow you to play Nintendo Entertainment System cartridges, and most interesting of all is that this supports sound expansion chips like the VRC6.

What paint did you use on the writing on the case?

DOOOOD!
