no
nintendo was an 8 bit system. that might not mean much to you, but back in the day, systems were measured by how many bits. i think it has something to do with how many colors can be shot through one square or pixel or something. playstation brought it to 32 bit, and beyond. the N64 was named so, because it was a 64 bit system
super nintendo was a 16 bit system.
if you took a super nintendo game, a 16 bit game, and tried to play it in a nintendo, an 8 bit system, the system is not able to process the game
also, the cartridges were physically different. the super nintendo was wider, thicker, and shorter - thus unable to fit into the nintendo, who sported longer, thinner, slimmer games.

No the cartridges were different. But I know the new nintendo wii lets you download a lot of games from all of thier old systems, including the snes and nes. I hope this answers your question.

the unique SNES, regrettably won't be able to play unique NES video games as NES cartridges are plenty greater beneficial than SNES cartridges, and could be to special to slot in the slot which you load video games into.
