TV Joystick 36 in 1

The TV Joystick 36 in 1 is a VT03-based Famiclone Plug 'n Play system developed by Timetop.

Overview

The device advertises 36 games, however it only features 12 unique games, while the other 24 are duplicates. The repeats usually remove the title screen and start on different levels. The system's menu is very similar to the one used on another plug 'n play, the MiWi. The controller greatly resembles the Samuri 60 in 1, except for a different center logo and a difficulty switch. The switch adds minimal changes to the games, such as removing checkpoints or continues. The X button is actually the A and B buttons combined, pressing them simultaneously. The Y button seemingly has no function in any game included.

Trivia

• Stoneage and Sharp Knight use music from Waixing's NES port of Legend Of Zelda: A Link to The Past.
• A 7 in 1 Plug 'n Play made by Timetop also exists. It includes one game not featured on this console, which is Crazy Speed, a F1 Race clone with Super Mario Kart-style graphics. Bombs Away is also renamed Bomb Boy on this unit.
• Ice & Fire Fighter uses the Graphics from Spin Master for the Neo-Geo. In the game Gun-Force, before the start of the first level, you can see Mary from the game Spin Master, which is attacked by a flying mutant.
