The Game Theory Admiral is a Famicom video game system clone. It is a portable unit made to look similar to the popular Game Boy Advance, minus the shoulder buttons, coming in two colors; translucent blue and translucent pink. For power it requires 3 AA batteries or a 4.5V AC adapter. The screen emulates a standard television screen size (4:3 aspect ratio). Through the use of a yellow cartridge that is plugged into the system where a Game Boy Advance game might go, it can play regular Famicom cartridges. Through the use of an NES to Famicom cartridge converter, it can play NES games, although this setup is rickety as such converters are usually flimsy contraptions and the NES cart is completely suspended above the system by said flimsy card.
The Game Theory Admiral can act as a home console as well when uses the pack-in AV adaptor and when one purchases controllers that plug into the bottom of the system (again these peripherals connect using a port similar to the EXT. port on the GBA). The video connection is surprisingly clear, but the sound is often distorted. Compatibility with the real Famicom is low and few games work well.
Famous quotes containing the words game, theory and/or admiral:
“Vanessa wanted to be a ballerina. Dad had such hopes for her.... Corin was the academically brilliant one, and a fencer of Olympic standard. Everything was expected of them, and they fulfilled all expectations. But I was the one of whom nothing was expected. I remember a game the three of us played. Vanessa was the President of the United States, Corin was the British Prime Minister—and I was the royal dog.”
—Lynn Redgrave (b. 1943)
“[Anarchism] is the philosophy of the sovereignty of the individual. It is the theory of social harmony. It is the great, surging, living truth that is reconstructing the world, and that will usher in the Dawn.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“Never forget that you are Germans. Never forget that you are Nazis!”
—Edmund H. North, British screenwriter, and Lewis Gilbert. Admiral Lutjens (Karel Stepanek)
