Can you help getting more info about those carts?
Cart name
Notes for chip search:
  • Use "+" as delimeter for all fields (except "cart name", where space is used); if many values are entered, all of them must appear in the cartridge then; case is not sensitive
  • "Mapper" is the actual mapper used by this cartridge hardware (might not match the one at wiki.nesdev.com, as at the moment I was analyzing this cartridge, there was no mapper assigned to it, so I had to assign my own number for testing)
  • "Original mapper" is the mapper used by licensed version of this game (for multicarts, it refers to mapper of the inside games, so 0+2 means this cartridge can run NROM+UNROM games)
  • Order in which you put values doesn't matter (you can write 7400+74138+7400 or 7400+7400+74138 to search for a cartridge that contains at least two 7400 chips and one 74138
  • Some chips (like PAL16*8) appear in cartridges as 16V8 or 16L8, so be sure to check both posibilities
  • Same goes for memories - type 27F080 to search for 32 pin memories, 27512 for 28 pin with two chip enables or MASKROM_1M_DIP28 for 28 pin with one chip enable
  • Same goes for mappers - some examples: AX5904(MMC1), AX5202P(MMC3), PT8154BM (9112MMC3), AX5208C(VRC4), 23C3662(VRC2)
  • Good news is that you can use wildcards, so 74139+*MMC3* will search for any cartrige that has at least one 74139 and MMC3 chip in any version

Extra info:
Sanchez sent me photos of both sides of the cartridge and adapter, so I was able to do my best and try to find-out the pinouts. I can't guarantee in 100% that all hidden connections were revealed correctly, but the VRC5 pin order seems to be quite logical (pins are in functional groups and in order)

Adapter:

My notes/doubts:
* Both cartride and adapter contains a lot of jumpers, whose role is to
  switch between DIL32 / DIL28 ROMs

* INT PRG ROM / INT PRG RAM refers to the internal chips
  (those inside adapter)

* EXT PRG ROM / EXT PRG RAM refers to the external chips
  (those inside cartridge that is plugged into adapter)

* Theoretically the maximum supported ROM sizes are:
   INT PRG ROM: 1 * 256 kiB
   EXT PRG ROM: 3 * 256 kiB
   INT CHR ROM: 128 kiB
   INT PRG RAM: 8 kiB
   EXT PRG RAM: 32 kiB ???
   
* Unknown pins:
    VRC5.68 = QTA.18 (might be PRG RAM A13)
	VRC5.80 = QTA.39 (might be PRG RAM A14)

* CHR-ROM chip (EF901-KN) has shuffled address lines and PPU A3 is not
  connected dirrectly but through VRC5 (is that something used to automatic
  japanese character switching?)

* What is Konami 052701 - regular 8k SRAM? Why they didnt use the same chip
  as for CHR-RAM or PRG-RAM? I analyzed other Konami Famicom PCBS and they
  never used RAM with Konami markings.
   
* There is one track on the adapter PCB that I don't have idea where goes to
 (and it seems to be surplus)
