Unique Features
Besides the very fact that it has put together two pieces of video game hardware into a single package, the Twin Famicom comes with some extra features. It has a port (like the Famicom) that allows games like Moero TwinBee to support more than the usual two players and to which the matching version of the NES Zapper can be attached. There also is a second port of a slightly different shape for connecting another Famicom via the black RAM unit that comes with the standard Famicom Disk System. This allows another standalone Famicom to use the disk drive on the Twin Famicom.
Another unique trait of this console is its color. Whereas most Famicom units come in the familiar red and white color combination, the Twin Famicom was sold in two colors: red with black highlights (AN-500R), and black with red highlights (AN-500B). There is also a re-released version with a slightly different case design, turbo controllers, and different color schemes, black with green highlights (AN-505-BK) and red with blue/grey highlights (AN-505-RD).

Famous quotes containing the words unique and/or features:
“An actor must communicate his author’s given message—comedy, tragedy, serio- comedy; then comes his unique moment, as he is confronted by the looked-for, yet at times unexpected, reaction of the audience. This split second is his; he is in command of his medium; the effect vanishes into thin air; but that moment has a power all its own and, like power in any form, is stimulating and alluring.”
—Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
“Art is the child of Nature; yes,
Her darling child, in whom we trace
The features of the mother’s face,
Her aspect and her attitude.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
