Way cheaper this way. I like Famicom games anyways so I am happy having this version. --- End quote --- Good thinking! Do Famicom games pop right into a NES and work? I'm too lazy to google. Thank you |

I have run across 2 of them over the years but traded my extra one away. They are well worth picking up since there are a bunch of Famicom games that were never released in America. |

Then you could print out a label for it and it would pop right in an NES, no converter needed. I might consider doing this. I'm going to start looking for a Famicom version. |

I take it Little Samson is not a text heavy game where you would appreciate the English text? Because if it's not, then definetly will get the Famicom version. Do all Gyromites have the converter, I have that game. This is a great solution for expensive games. |
