Yes, but there's a plastic tab inside the SNES cart slot that you'll need to cut out, just like on the N64.

J and PAL carts will fit in a JA SNES with the tabs removed, but NA carts will only fit in a NA system. J and PAL carts are the same shape, though I'm not sure about tabs. PAL carts won't work on anything else and vise versa, but J and NA carts will work in the opposite systems with either the tabs removed or using something to extend the slot.

Thanks guys, i'm asking because when watermelon games releases Project N if they don't have enough money to make both versions it will cause a problem for people who don't want to modify their SNES.

I'd think they'd release it in a rounded cart since that works out the easiest, depending on the notch arrangement.

Heh that's better than mine right now(which is none) especially since I keep hearing people talk about those three all the time. I especially need to play the first one since I love the m&l series XD
Oh definitely! I also love the Mario and luigi series but the first one is one heck of a game, even if you have to use an emulator I suggest you try it

Oh i'm definitely getting smrpg....there's not way around it, that might even be the first game I get for the system XD But first I gotta worry about getting my tv to work with my NES so maybe I can even use it for this purpose...

After getting side-tracked by FF8 and Dark Souls II, I really want to finish up Robotrek in the next few weeks. I think I'm half-way through?

Well I grabbed tom and jerry, and super mario world for SNES jr bringing my library up to 2. I may pick up a game today when I go to get my nes looked at(just because I want to make sure it's fixed right and I don't want to screw anything up and have another gba sp problem) and cleaned properly(along with the games I have for it just to make sure it works and doesn't have issues each time I try to plug and play games....

Add on to my last post because i grabbed a repro of tales of phantasia for $40...which doesn't seem that bad compared to most repros out that especially on ebay. Their other repros will actually be even better to get because tales is just their most expensive to make in house(along with star fox 2 and one other i can't recall the name of)
