CheffoJeffo:
In my security bit set (purchased at the local electronics shop), I have a couple of bits that look like slot-heads with a chunk cut out of the centre. I have these with success on Nintendo screws.

OTOH, I did order Nintendo bits online and use those now instead.

lanman31337:
Do the lighter and pen trick.  Just as Franco B mentioned, that trick usually works well.

Mr. Gone:
The pen trick always worked really well for me with consoles (VB/GC/N64/. But for SNES/N64 games it never did the trick. They've got smaller screws and the holes they sit in are pretty shallow.

I know that for some of the really old NES games, though, a little flathead screwdriver will work. My Zelda and Hogans Alley have these screws. I was hoping my Mario Bros would, as it would mean perhaps it would contain the JPN->USA converter. (At USA launch I believe they didn't have the US game PCBs made yet, so they opted the half-assed approach).
