List of FDS conversions

Temporary list of FDS conversions. "Official cartridge version" only refers to Japanese release, US/Europe release doesn't count. I need to group the "Bootleg" part by companies. Please inform me if I missed something.

For a general idea on how FDS conversion worked, see here.

This list is written on a third-person perspective.

Bootleg:

Super Mario Bros. 2 (I have to address the elephant in the room as soon as possible; there're way too many bootleg SMB2J ports out there with varying quality)
Ai Senshi Nicol
Akai Yousai (a.k.a Jackal; this is the cut down version released on FDS)
Akumajou Dracula (a.k.a Castlevania 1; Official cartridge version exists, running on UNROM like international version)
Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa (Official cartridge version exists, running on VRC4)
Bubble Bobble 1
Dracula II (a.k.a Castlevania 2; the mapper is extremely complicated)
Exciting Basket (a.k.a Double Dribble)
Exciting Soccer (Some versions replaced the title with "Super Soccer Champion" which is probably the ugliest title screen I've ever seen in an NES game)
Falsion
Fuuun Shourinken
Green Beret (a.k.a Rush'n Attack)
Gyruss (Has a few more content than the US version, which was cut down to run on CNROM; mapper is complicated like Dracula II)
Hikari Shinwa (a.k.a Kid Icarus)
Metroid 1 (no save feature)
Meikyuu Jiin Dababa
Moero Twinbee (a.k.a Stinger, Twinbee 2; Official cartridge version exists, running on UNROM like US version)
Monty no Doki Doki Daidassou (a.k.a Monty on the Run)
Nazo no Murasamejou
Pro Wrestling - Famicom Wrestling Association (severely cut down compared to FDS version; Official cartridge version exists, running on UNROM like international version)
Roger Rabbit (a.k.a Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle; title removed but called "Lucky Rabbit" in the cartridge label)
Smash Ping Pong (Exclusively glanced at several JY company multicarts)
Tobidase Daisakusen (a.k.a 3D World Runner; the FDS conversion seems to add a brand new intro)
Yume Koujou Doki Doki Panic (Official cartridge version technically exists, but is the same as SMB2U and under the name "Super Mario USA")
Zanac
Zelda no Densetsu (a.k.a The Legend of Zelda; the Chinese translation by Waixing was reported to running on an FDS conversion, besides the original conversion featuring on one of the multicarts that I forgot the manufacturer)

Homebrew:

note: Hacks that merely changes the US/Europe version to resemble FDS version doesn't count! Also there're quite a few "FDS conversions" floating online, I've sent them to NewRisingSun for investigation and turns out they're TNES ROMs made to support the Virtual Console FDS emulator, so they're not "real" FDS conversions.

Super Mario Bros. 2 (can be found in the Super Mario All-Stars and SMB1 Practice ROM multicart; also standalone MMC1 and MMC3 version is floating online)
Akai Yousai (made by evgenykz)
Aliens - Alien 2 (made by evgenykz)
All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros.
Arumana no Kiseki (made by Mottzilla)

Ice Climber (made by SF-Human)
Ice Hockey (made by SF-Human)
New Clu Clu Land (made by Morgan Johansson, another one was made by SF-Human)
Smash Ping Pong (with restored graphics from Konami's Ping Pong, a version with unmodified graphics was made by SF-Human)
