I have been collecting the PAL exclusive games for some time now, I'm not sure who here is even interested in collecting PAL NES games but I thought I'd let you guys know which ones work in a US NSTC Top Loader and which ones have issues.
Most all of mine are PAL B, i've heard conflicting stories if PAL A or B work better but maybe this will help someone know that if they buy this game that it will work in their Top Loading NES.

Aladdin – The titles and cut scenes play fine but the game itself freezes up and crashes.

Asterix – Titles and cut scenes play fine, but game is a glitch fest, you can play the character and see bad guys but background is glitched beyond playable.

Banana Prince – Plays great (only issue the text is in German)

Corvette ZR-1 Challenge – Starts off good but once race gets to first person view it glitches pretty bad. Pretty much unplayble.

Crackout – Plays fine no issues.

Dragonball – Plays fine no issues. (only issue is text is in French)

Dropzone – Plays fine for the most part, the score area in the middle is a little glitched. But game is playable.

Duck Maze – Plays fine no issues.

Konami Hyper Soccer – Plays fine little issues.

Legend of Prince Valiant - Plays fine no issues.

Les Chevaliers Du Zodiaque – Plays fine no issues (only issue is text is in French)

Lion King – Game plays like its having a seizure, background flips out really bad. Funny thing if you pause the game its a clear screen.   

Little Red Hood – Plays fine no issues.

New Ghostbusters 2 – Plays fine no issues.

Noahs Ark – Plays fine no issues.

Parodius – Plays fine no issues.

Smurfs – Plays fine no issues.

Trolls in Crazyland – Plays fine no issues.

These are the only two games that where released in the US that I have PAL version

Digger T. Rock – Game backgrounds are glitched barely playable.

Mario & Yoshi – Plays fine no issues. (this game is Yoshi in the US) 

If you have a PAL NES collection and a US Top Loading NES then please add to this list. Its nice to know which ones work.

Cool! Thanks for the info.
Have you been able to try them in a normal NES with the lockout chip disabled?

Is that a complete list of games released in Europe and not in the US?  If not, do you know where I could find one?
