While there I searched for a Dr. PC Jr. for a while, until I finally found one for $150. It's the best $150 I ever spent. I would pay $300 for it. It's one of the most versatile machines I've ever seen. The only downfall about it all, is that the rom conversion program only works with mappers 1-4, and 66. I hope the developer of this program will be spurn to improve upon the program if the PC Jr. becomes more popular here in the States. I highly recommend you import one from some online HK video game shop. I talked to a couple other guys who bought a PC Jr., both of them recommended Game Choice Club, who is actually a Bung affiliate. Their URL is http://gamechoice.com.hk. Make sure to get the 3 OS disks, or else it won't work. Once you have these disks, you'de best copy the contents of your disk, bit-by-bit, to your PC and then upload it to your website, your idrive or whatever, burn it to a CD or whatever, just make sure you have the exact copy of the disk's contents. It's not just a Famicom copier, it has all the Famicom hardware inside it, even the cartridge slot. Buy an NES adapter for it for $20, they used to be like $40-60, but they've lowered since the GameAxe craze. And unlike most Famicom copiers, which can only be used with the Famicom Disk System, since it has a Famicom built-in, it can use a 3.5" 1.44MB floppy disk drive, making it ideal for PC users with a lot of NES roms. So if you have enough money and are a fan of the NES, order it now! If you're a fan of the NES, you probably have an NES and games for it, but the PC Jr. makes these superflous, so just sell them. Also, if you have an extra keyboard, mouse, or printer, I recommend getting one because it comes with software, such as word processor and Basic programming system, and it's own DOS.
