Famicom Disk System Belt Replacement and Spindle Hub Adjustment
Does your Famicom Disk System make grinding noises and is unable to read discs? Join me on this episode of Retro Game Attic as as I replace my Famicom Disk System’s drive belt and adjust the spindle hub it to get the console going again! I’ve never worked on a FDS before so there’s speed bumps along the way but the results speak for themselves!
