The Power Base name makes even more sense when you consider the SMS Convertor was called the Power Base Convertor in the US. Let's be honest, 'Master System' is a far better name!
@Sn0w Looks like they forgot to edit that section - reading the FAQ at the bottom: "The overclock function was developed but disabled due to incompatibilities observed on certain motherboard revisions (CPU differences, architecture, etc.). It was removed to ensure maximum stability." So I don't think it can really claim to be "the ultimate accessory" at this point in time seeing as an overclock function is pretty standard fare for most MD mods.
Great article about one of my all-time favourite MD games. I've great memories of my cousins bringing the first game with them when they stayed at our house over Christmas. I must've played TJ&E III several years before I even played Panic on Funkotron & I still own the Limited Run Collector's Edition of Back In The Groove - really hope the movie do the games justice!

Re: This Retro Game Store Is So Good It Has Its Own Video Game
A fantastic shop with great staff, and a friendly owner who I always have great chats with. Hopefully get to play the game at some point!

One the best video games ever created (I might be biased)
