Description A Nintendo pin adapter for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). These were included in a few very early games for the NES, like Gyromite, that used Famicom boards in the cartridges. Since the two consoles have different cartridge pin slots, an adaptor was needed. The extra pins were notable for being for the lockout chip, which can be seen on the board.
