There are at least 5 different programs that
run on Super Famicom that play Shogi.
Apparently, these would also fit the Super Nintendo
with an adaptor, but I don't know the specifics because
I actually use the Super Famicom with a voltage
adapter (100 to 110). I remember a comment here
that said the voltage difference might affect
the strength of the program also, which means that
using these cartridges in a Super Nintendo might
be unpredictable.

The prices are similar to what is mentioned above,
I think the best one is the Hayazashi 2-dan Morita Shogi
one. Some of these support a mouse input also (the Super
Shogi does not, and the previous 1-dan Hayazashi does not).
However, this is the Super Famicom mouse, so again I am
not sure about how it translates.

more info would be appreciated
