    Default Price/interest check: SNES Fire "Dual Slot" PAL/NTSC converter

    Hey all,

    I recently sold a SNES to a member of the shmups forums and found one of these while getting it all together: a Fire "dual-slot" converter that allows use of PAL games on NTSC systems (and vice versa).



    I've had this for well over a decade and forgot I even owned it, but since I sold the SNES, well, I don't really need it now, do I?

    I have no idea what the going rate on these things are nowadays, since from what I can surmise they are long out of production. Maybe some of our Euro members can give me a rough estimate on what this should go for?

    (Also, if anyone wants to buy it, I'll certainly entertain offers just be warned that it does not work with ALL games, later Nintendo-published titles tend to have more tricky lockouts - i.e. the Terranigma for sale in my other post will require additional system mods to play.)

    I got my Pro action replay 2 that does the same thing for around 30 euros. I think around 30 to 40 is the standard price.

    That's one of the better adapters out there and probably has something like 95% compatiblity...the exceptions being final first party games and various special chip carts. I would guess around 25 euro? Compare prices against the current going rate for a PAR2 if you can, as mentioned above they work about the same, but the Fire FX doesn't support cheat codes.
