Here's my own attempt. I have to say, I was rather scared doing this. Had to be done at least once though -

I dunno man, I bet if you plugged Street Fighter 2 into the top of that thing you'd unlock Shen Long and shit.

At that top there is that a Power Base converter that is just shaped like a cartridge instead of a system dominating monstrosity?

Yeah, that's the power base convertor version 2. Think it may be Europe/Brazil only.

the short answer: no.

I have, however, noticed that some Genesis-eses like to be prima donnas and not work properly with Knuckles Chaotix. I tried 2 different 32Xs on my model 2 Genesis and neither one would work, yet it worked fine on a friend's model 2. I later got a Model 1 and the appropriate adapter cable and it worked perfectly.
