Two small indentations on the back of each cartridge allows it to connect or pass through the system's cartridge dustcover flaps . All regions have the same connectors, and region - locked cartridges will fit into the other regions' systems by using a cartridge converter or by simply removing the cartridge's casing . However, the systems are also equipped with lockout chips that will only allow them to play their appropriate games . Both Japanese and North American systems have the same NTSC lockout, while Europe has a PAL lockout . A bypass device such as the N64 Passport or the Datel Action Replay can be used to play import titles, but a few games require an additional boot code before they can be played . </P> <P> Of the console's 389 official releases, 196 are region - locked to Japan, 296 to North America, and 242 to Europe .
