## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this pass the upgrade audio from Akumajou Densetsu properly?**
A: I don't have the converter or game to test, so it may pass the expansion audio through; however, even if it does, the NES is not equipped to support those extra sound channels without modification.

**Q: does this adapter have a CIC chip in it?**
A: Unfortunately no.

**Q: does this adapter have a CIC chip in it?**
A: No it is not meant to allow bootleg games to be played, it is just an adapter for standard carts.

**Q: Does this work with taller cartridges like Splatterhouse Wanpaku Graffiti?**
A: This adapter will work with most Famicom carts but taller ones can pose an issue. I know I had a copy of Famicom Jump that wouldn't fit, so if your cart is a similar size it will not work.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice adapter.
*by W***T on February 10, 2020*

Works perfectly and is a great design over the typical style with a ribbon pull cord. Fits in the front loader fine and is nice that it’s fool proofed, you can’t plug the 60 pin cartridge in backwards. However, that nice design means that only the short standard size cartridges will fit. Anything in a taller, nonstandard shell will not fit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product. Fired the game right up.
*by E***D on June 7, 2024*

Easy to insert and the game fired right up. Played Battle City on it with no issues whatsoever.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Slightly flawed, but better than others I've tried.
*by V***R on April 23, 2024*

It does what it says on the box: It plays Famicom games on an NES. Certainly works better than most others I've used in the past, and the design is far more convenient than the Hyperkin one.I mainly bought this to play those odd, rare 60 pin bootleg games that were sold in China, Russia, South America, etc. They played much better through this converter than on an actual Dendy/Pegasus/Lifa or any other no-name Famiclone. However, I do NOT recommend playing those kinds of cartridges using this converter for an extended period of time! I had to buy a second one recently after one of my 4 in 1 carts from Ukraine started getting very warm after playing it for (I think) over an hour and then the screen started blinking. Made sure it wasn't just the NES toaster's pin connectors rejecting the converter, and thankfully that wasn't the case. I think something on the converter got damaged by the excessive heat, but I didn't have the patience to crack it open and I couldn't get a refund since I've owned it for a couple years. The replacement works great, but I don't intend to plug in that 4 in 1 cartridge anytime soon ;)So to make a long story short, this converter is great for playing official Famicom cartridges that aren't too tall and don't have expanded audio. But for bootleg 60 pin cartridges, please use caution.
