FC -> NES Adapter
12. Dec 2006 at 04:22

I apologize if this has been covered 100 times. I searched the first 10 pages or so and didn't see anything.

I know that in some games like Gyromite, it was cheaper for the companies to just throw the FC chips in a Nintendo cart and put an adapter inside. Unfortunately, my copy of Gyromite doesn't have the adapter inside, and I was wondering what other games might possibly house the FC -> NES adapter. It would be a nice surprise to find it already amongst my collection so I didn't have to shell out for an expensive adapter.

Thank you in advance, and I hope I made sense. I'm new to all this.

That is just the information I was looking for. I had most of the games on the list, but unfortunately, none of them had the sideways pins. Oh well, back to the drawing board. Thanks everyone!

I've been hearing a million different ways of telling if a game has a converter inside, but with this info I finally decided to pop one open tonight. Found a 5 screw Excitebike with the weird looking pins and sure enough, there was a converter inside. Nice link.
