Mysterious curiosities of the Famicom Disk System

By Brandon Daiker | 2:34pm, 7/8/11

What's the only non-portable Nintendo system capable of being powered entirely by batteries? If you answered "Color TV Game 6," shut up you smart-hole! The real answer is the Famicom Disk System, Nintendo's magnetic disk-based add-on to the wildly popular Famicom (known as the NES in the western world). Yes, atop the Disk System's flat, red case rests a gaping maw, ready to accept a frankly ridiculous six C-cells. If you've never seen one of these things in person before it's perhaps the first thing you'll notice after getting one in your hands—most interweb images of the unit show the Famicom itself sitting on top of the add-on, covering the panel. Since I have an AC adapter and live in an era of power strips, I like to use the compartment as a storage space for all my secret money. But anyway, why would Nintendo, ever-conscious of the space their systems require, add a largely empty space-gobbling hole for battery support? Easy! In typical, kind-hearted Nintendo fashion, the company theorized that Famicom owners might already have a standard outlet full with a plug for the television and another for the Famicom's power brick, and so included the option—Nintendo's user-oriented design at work. The system is surprisingly light, in no doubt because of the mostly hollow plastic body. Notably, since the Disk System only loads from the disk occasionally, the six batteries can power a system through many months of regular play! This is just one of the many little curiosities about the Famicom Disk System that has ensured that to this day it remains an interesting, and to many, enigmatic, red plastic box. Created by the original designer of the Famicom, Masayuki Uemura, and Nintendo R&D2, the Famicom Disk System was released in Japan in February of 1986. That's about three years after the Famicom itself, which came out in July of 1983 in Japan. The Disk System sought to ease a couple serious problems for game developers of the time: storage and cost. With games growing in size and requiring more graphical data, sound, and program code, developers often found themselves constrained by the expense of physical cartridge ROM chips as well as their relatively small storage capacities.
