Some adapters don't pass through all pins, so cartridges with special additional chips may not work with those adapters. Some games with special chips may only work if the local game contains the same chip.

There are several adapters for the SNES to play import games e.g. for the Super Famicom (Japan) or NTSC SNES (US) on the PAL SNES (Europe). Here is a list of known models:

  • Universal Adaptor AD-29[1]
  • Universal Adaptor by DATEL ELECTRONICS
  • Super Adaptor Super Key
  • Fire SNES Game Converter
  • Vintron Super Game Converter
  • Games Master by Xtend
  • Honey Bee Super-Magic Game Converter

The adapters usually feature two slots, one for the imported game to be played and one for a local game to pass through the required regional CIC chip.

Not all games work on all adapters, due to special chips of incompatibilities. See also SNES:Region Locked Games. Some adapters don't pass through all pins, so cartridges with special additional chips may not work with those adapters. Some games with special chips may only work if the local game contains the same chip.
