The advantage of the converter is that your SNES wont be cosmetically flawed. If you do mod the Cart slot Jig Saw or File I personally think it looks better with the dust guards removed, though your cart reader can now get dusty.
Even though the PAL machine is more work, you would want to do it to it anyway. Last edited by emwearz on Thu Sep 17, am, edited 1 time in total. Sorry for my laziness. As for the cable I have no clue, but I would imagine so. Board index All times are UTC. Note: The games will still have Japanese text no matter what way you choose to play them, however some games may have an English text option. If you want to play an English version of a Super Famicom game there may be fan translated ROMs available online, assuming you already own the game.
What You Will Need: 4. You can find it online for a couple of dollars, it is also common in bit sets. Screwdriver handle. Phillips screwdriver or bit. Pliers or wire-cutters. Small metal file. Small tweezers or needle. Optional Old toothbrush.
Cleaning solution or water. Drying cloth. One the inside of the console lid is the cartridge port assembly , this is what we need to get to and it is held in place with seven Phillips head screws. Remove the Phillips screws and set them aside in a safe place.
A couple of these screws attach to face plates on the console around the cartridge door, which may come off, just remember how they go together so you can reattach them later. Next we need to remove is a small spring on the reset switch. Use a pair of small tweezers or a needle to unhook the spring , be careful through the spring can go flying and can be hard to find if it lands on the floor. Once you have the spring set it aside with the screws because it will need to be reattached.
Depending on which original Super Nintendo you have, there are two different versions , you may have another piece on the cartridge port assembly. The first run of consoles has a plastic slider attached to the power switch that locks cartridges into place when the system is on. The newer consoles do not have this as it was removed to save money.
Now that you have the cartridge port assembly detached there is much better access to the tabs we want to remove. Note: If you want to take a minute to clean the area inside the cartridge port now is a good time. Take an old toothbrush and some cleaner or soap and water a brush out any gunk that has collected inside over the last 20 years.
Make sure you dry it thoroughly so it does not drip any water on to the electronics when you put it back together. The easiest way that I have found to remove the tabs is to get some small wire-cutters and pinch the point at which the tab meets the wall of the cartridge port.
Then grab a hold and move the cutters side to side, stressing the plastic, eventually the plastic will break and come apart in pieces. Continue to stress the plastic until a majority of the tab is gone. Repeat the process on the other tab and you are almost done. Did you make this project?
Share it with us! I Made It! I currently don't have any US carts so I don't have this problem, but if I had, I would definitely use an adapter. Modding a Super Famicom cart slot to fit the squarish US carts would just ruin the aesthetics, and removing the protective shell isn't a very attractive solution either.
