Can't you mod an NTSC SNES to play European games? If you have an HDTV you may not even have to buy an pal to ntsc adapter.

I'm pretty sure you just have to take out some pins to play PAL/J games, it's as simple as that.

Was just joking with ZeroAX though.

American Nintendo fans don't get a slap in the face anymore. They get a full blown pummeling!... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Like I said before, you can PM me for any of those 3 games once they are released. No worries...

Yes, but it plays at the wrong speed.

US has been missing a lot more good games that are reaching PAL regions starting since Dreamcast and PS2, I think. Evil Twin, Shenmue 2, SVC Chaos, 10,000 Bullets, several Simple 2000 series games (not all of which are good), Shienryu/Steel Dragon, and a lot of miscellaneous fighters and shooters, and so on. It's not just Nintendo that's doing this.

Actually PAL games tend to programmed for 60hz, so it would most likely run at the intended speed on a NTSC machine (ie the game was made and programmed to be played at 60hz).

So... 60 FPS games still run at 60 FPS instead of 50?

No matter what region the game is from, un-modded PAL consoles will run games at 50Hz and un-modded NTSC consoles will run games at 60hz. However due to developers being lazy, most PAL games just run slower (Games that are meant to run at 60hz being ran at 50hz).
