The Game Axe is an unlicensed handheld version of the Famicom, made by the Taiwanese hardware manufacturer Legend Technology Co., LTD.[1][2][3][4][5] Launched in 1989 it made a comeback around 2000, being sold in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan under the Redant brand.
[5][6][4] It is a portable Famiclone that can play Famicom games, and by using the included adapter, American and European Nintendo Entertainment System games.
[1] It had a 3.5-inch (model FC-812) or 4-inch (models FC-816/FC-868) colour LCD screen,[8] two controller ports at the base, an AC jack, and an RCA jack, allowing the Game Axe to be plugged to a television and essentially replace a Famicom.
Any jarring of the hand held causes NES games to lose enough contact to freeze or shut off.
