Hi there,
I only have two simple questions, so I apologize if I shouldn't have done that (but BEN drowned
)
- I order an RGB-modded Japanese N64 which will also have the cartridge port slightly modified so I can use NTSC-U cartridges. I've been told the games are perfectly compatible and not region locked (besides the hardware lock, which I won't have). My question is, is there an exception to this rule? Are there games with compatibility issues? Which ones then?
- I'm trying to find a cheap (loose) NTSC-U version of Secret of Mana, cause the Japanese SFC version is cool but Japanese text isn't (even though I know the game very well, I need English to play in food conditions). I also have the PAL version in French (and a PAL SNES) which is perfect for text, but PAL 50Hz sucks and I heard it doesn't play well, or doesn't play at all on SFC even with an adapter cause it's somehow region locked (may be due to speed optimizations like few other games).
Would the NTSC-U version work well on my Super Famicom with my universal adapter? I guess it should if the game isn't region locked without speed/framerate compatibility issues since both NTSC-U and NTSC-J are 60Hz, but I'm just asking to be sure.
Many thanks!
