It is, though it did have different features. The controllers had microphones, for example.

Famicom games often had better soundchips (Castlevania 3, for example) not to mention FDS games are almost completely different from their NES counterparts

You are either looking at the Super Famicom or one of the Famicom's with expansion kit (build in to the game or separate) like the disk system.

The Japanese Famicom had a disk add-on called the Famicom Disk System, which got higher-quality games that couldn't be played on the original Famicom.

honestly most FDS games aren't that much better than the NES versions, and not all that many FDS games were made

and having to remove, flip, and reinsert the disk is tedious... and LOAD TIMES, my god the loading times
