retro port nes adaptor

Post Posted: Post subject: retro port nes adaptor

I recently let my sister borrow an snes and a retro port adaptor. I've cleaned and tested everything, but of the games that didn't work I don't know which are incompatable and which just need a more thorough cleaning. The games that didn't work are Castlevania 3, Castlevania Bloodmoon, Dragon Warrior, Final Fantasy 3, Rush'n Attack, Sky Shark, Stealth ATF, and Zelda. I would appreciate it if anyone here knows.

Reproductions usually have an issue with third party hardware and clone systems. There is also the issue of hardware on top of hardware like the retroport is, which would decrease the chance of total compatibility. Best to use original hardware to get everything working, especially an NES with a disabled 10NES chip. Top Loaders don't have this and can actually play anything pretty much, US can even play PAL games with little issue.
