From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Disk Fax was a machine that was used in combination with games for the Famicom Disk System in Japan. These Disk Fax machines were used by Nintendo to hold contest in Japan. Since one of the main features of the Famicom Disk System was the ability to save data, players could save things such as high scores and other achievements on their game disk. These Disk Fax machines could be found in certain stores in Japan during the late 80s/early 90s. The Disk Fax machine would read the save data and send the scores to Nintendo for inclusion on a national scoreboard.
