Yes, but most of them (all?) use FDS (Famicom Disk System) disks, which are so expensive and hard to find, and incompatible with anything else, it isn't worth it.

    - There is a cartridge port, but the PC Jr doesn't copy or backup carts. I'm working on a program that does just that, but currently you can't backup games with the PC Jr. (nt) Chris 12:25:39 05/23/01 (2) responses

        No, I don't believe so. FDS games rely on specific ports and the FDS BIOS' disk functions. They would each have to be uniquely 'hacked' individually. (nt) Chris 02:15:48 05/24/01 (0) responses
