How To Play Famicom Games On The NES (Nintendo Entertainment System)

Here's how EASY it is to play Famicom games on the NES. Here are some common questions you may have.

This adapter is EXCELLENT for the original NES. DO NOT GET a standard 60 to 72 PIN adapter if you have the original NES. They'll work fine with the NES 101 (Top Loader) or any other hardware based clone. Here's the link to the adapter in the video.

You CANNOT play Famicom Disk System games using this method on the original NES with this specific adapter. It WILL WORK with the NES Top Loader or any hardware based clone with a standard adapter. Good luck finding a Famicom Disk System that works though.

I have not tested this method on PAL NES systems, but from what I read it will work. The games will however play slower.

Why not open the cartridges and swapping the boards?

*any game that will fit, you have to break the top off for tall games like ff1+2

Oh I remember when Mario 3 came out. It was the shit back then. If you got that game (for $89.99) you were one of the cool ones.
