    Hey all,

    Went to Battlesbridge antiques in Essex at the weekend, they had a lovely little retro gaming section with all sorts of stuff, including this...'Excellence Computer'

    The note claims it's an ultra-rare Nintendo, but unless it's a rebadged, repainted Famicom, I'm skeptical. Any thoughts?

    If it's a real Nintendo, it should have the Nintendo name on it. There are so many clone versions for Famicom out there, but there are clone versions that have the same shape of the Famicom like the Dendy clone console.

    Chances are it's some Chinese knockoff. Check the bottom of the unit. If it's official it will have the Nintendo logo or name. I'm betting it's just a clone and not worth more than 15 pounds, never mind 85 pounds!
