This looks a lot like a Famicom, but the name on it is HOME COMPUTER, not FAMILY. And the controllers have yellow turbo buttons built in.

I spent several minutes with my Google-Fu and came up empty.

Hoping for what it is, and what its general value is.

update: added a 3rd picture: the bottom of the console

Clone for Middle East markets, judging by the Arabic on the logo next to "HOME".

This is Famicom clone no. 3728 coz there are so many  

Ps: show the stickers under the console, if any?

unfortunately, I cannot show close up of the circle. These images are from an auction, added image of the bottom

If it's from an auction, I guess you haven't won it yet? I can't be assed to try to find the auction, bid and win, and "steal" the deal from you, but if you do win the machine and the other game(s?) that come with (such as that boxed Galaga pirate), I'd be interested in buying / trading it for something.

I have dozens of Famiclones that look somewhat like the original red/white Nintendo Famicom machine. Some people might argue otherwise, but from where I sit, I've had trouble selling my extras as a whole. I see historical significance in such machines, but finding people to pay for that is a totally different story, especially if the machine is not boxed.
