OK I have read through the forums and still have a few questions.

I have a Japanese, US and PAL SNES.
If I want to run the SuperFlash Cart on all of these systems do I need both the T Connector and the CIC chip?

From reading it looks like the CIC chip is for only NTSC systems. What is the actual purpose of it?

How easy is it to get the SuperFlash cart up and running? I need a USB cable and a Parallel cable, is that all?

Does the Flash cart need to be plugged into my PC whilst being used in the SNES?

Thanks.

Cheers
Sean

If you want the flash cart running on all 3 systems, you just need the T-Connector, not the CIC chip. If you just wanted to run it on your US/JAP system then you could get the CIC chip. This would enable you to use the flash cart without the T-Connector.
You need a USB cable and parallel cable and the software from the downloads section to get the flash cart working.
No the flash cart isn't connected to your PC while playing games, only to flash games onto the cart.
Hope that helps.

Or you can solder a socket on the flashcard (no need to say, it won't fit into a snes case anymore, unless you cut a piece out of it)

This way you can swap CIC easy and you don't need the t-connector @ all (only for dsp games)

I noticed here that people are associating the T- Connecter with the DSP chip or for using in different region systems, but wouldnt you need the T-Connecter to run games with other chips like the FX's, DSP's 1-4, SA 1's, and so on. From what I have been told there is 16 different chips.
So should it be reccomended that you use 1 game from each chip set to run a rom on the flash cart of that same chip set.
Please correct me if im wrong on this.

Ultimatly this must mean that all the other special chipped games are not compatible with the SuperFlash and cannot be played without the original cart. Does this go for all DSP chips or just DSP 1.

No it doesn't. But no copier will let you use FX or SA-1-roms as well...

Just have to buy the real carts^^

There are only acouple of games that won't work because of the special chips, unfortunately those are the most stunning ones. It pays off to get the SFcart, because it plays all the RPG or Adventure games ( FF, SD3 and so on )

Buying the games that won't work + SFcart is a lot cheaper than buing everything Razz
