Famicom Vandals Hit Scottish Church

Thanks to the Gaming Age messageboard for pointing to a local Scottish news story describing a church in Aberdeen bizarrely daubed with a Nintendo-related slogan. According to the story, "Paint was splashed all over the church's front door and the phrase 'The Famicom' was scrawled in foot-high writing on the wall." Although the story says that "Police have confirmed they are searching for the culprits - but are unable to shed any light on the meaning of 'The Famicom'", readers may have some idea of the word's origin, although perhaps not the motive for the attack.
