One of the advantages of VRC6. Due to the external structure of Famicom (original Japanese version of NES) it was possible to provide enhancements to sound hardware through the cartridge:
"The Famicom had two cartridge pins that allowed cartridges to provide external sound enhancements. They were originally intended to facilitate the Famicom Disk System's external sound chip. These pins were removed from the cartridge port of the NES, and relocated to the bottom expansion port." - Wikipedia
I would like to at some point, but this video was taken using Nestopia.
While in the past the game had problems with several emulators (even moreso than western release due to VRC6 chip in the original cartridge), nowadays good deal of emulators are capable of running Japanese version without problems.
