Playing US Snes games on a Super Famicom

[Geoff D]

Is there some kind of pass-through cart or converter I could get my mitts on? I'm just looking to pick up a few games (RPGs mainly) so don't want to indulge in any case cutting lark.

Thanks in advance knowledgeable people

There used to be quite a few of them floating about. Basically bridges that got around the fact that the carts were different shapes. Mine's a little Honey Bee one. I might actually have another one knocking about somewhere so I'll have a look tonight (or it might have been one of those converters that tried to get around region locking by having a host region cart plugged in at the same time as the import title).

Whatever, I'll have a look around at home tonight. You can have it if I've got one.

Just bumping this up if anyone can help with a source for the old bridging adaptor? Don't want the type that plays PAL on NTSC just the bridging one to play US on Japan machine.

Must be full width contacts to enable Super FX games.

I use a Pro Action Replay Mk 2 as a straight bridging adaptor for playing US SNES games on a SFC. You don't need to use the extra cartridge slot at the back. It has full width contacts too, but I don't have any US Super FX games to test it out.
