The SNES doesn't have a lockout chip, Nintendo used a physical obstruction to keep you from playing Japanese or European games on an American system. Thankfully it's nothing more then two plasitic tabs that if you just force the cart in there the tabs will break.

As for getting the system to run games of your region. Chech out Gamesx.com, they have a region mod and a NTSC - PAL mod. These two will get your system running no problem
