I've got a few cutscenes from an old windows game that are in .smk format and I can't find a way to play them on Snow Leopard.

I don't think you'll find anything sadly.
Smacker Carbon Player used to be the thing, but it's PPC Mac only, so old.

Could there be a software that could convert the videos to a friendlier format? I can't give up so easily

Possibly, the big problem being that a lot of converters need to be able to play the file too.
You could try this one, which came up when I googled around for you:

Apple - Downloads - Video - Prism Video File Converter

Also, ffmpegx may well import it to convert, it does seem to support everything I have ever thrown at it:

ffmpegX a DVD, SVCD, VCD, CVD, VOB, DivX, XviD, H.264, PSP, iPod, MP4, MOV, FLV encoder for Mac OSX

I had tried prism before, without success, but ffmpegx did the trick. I think my files are corrupted though because I can only see the first image of each movie. Any any case, thanks!
