- Well, since my name seems to have been invoked, I've seen plenty of knock-off
- game systems in Taiwan that are Nintendo or Sega compatible. Last time I
- was in Taiwan (February 92), I didn't see any knock-off SNESs...some places
- were carrying the actual thingy from Japan. I didn't really explore
- Gwang-Hua market or the Shi-men-ding electronics area that thoroughly, as it
- was a rather depressing event for which I went back.
