Need help with info on OBD scanners

[CMF_BeeBoop]

Hello my fellow Micra freaks!
I am looking into purchasing an OBD Scanner, but they all seem to be for vehicles with OBDII. I have noticed that they sell a conversion cable and i am wondering if anyone here has tried one of these. Will it work? Should it work?
Here are some links:

Any input you have will be greatly appreciated!

Would this work:

Being a Nissan Micra K11, I believe you need something like these cables to hook up your laptop, with the appropriate software or the ECUTalk I understand lets you see most ECU settings and even change a few.

Please read up first before you spend your money, I don't know what you are hoping to achieve and I am no car expert.

How old is your micra? I don't know at what point they changed, or even if they did, but my micra has a consult port which is not OBD. You need a cable which you can get from here

And software for a PC which you can get from
