But if you want to keep from breaking the tabs or cutting notches in your expensive import cart, get an adaptor.

Just do one of my Replies above. I have the pass thru cart myself. (Just posted scroll up)
I couldn't bear thought of taking a Dremel to that beautiful cart, or cutting tabs in the N64.

I have this game, Sin and Punishment is a phenominal, one of the best N64 releases!

Hard to come by, check Game Importers such as Play asia. I just posted a mod link above.
