Hmm,

That looks awfully . . . delicate. I didn't expect to see so much exposed board. How has yours held up and do you think it's a worthwhile investment? Do you think you could post a little better photo of this Mark III? Sorry to be a bother.

Thanks a million,

I actually sold mine to a buddy after I got an actual SMS. It held up really well, though, and I wouldn't worry about the exposed board. As I said, it's basically just rerouting pins and the actual components are inside the Genesis cart.

Thanks!

If I can't find the official Power Base Converter II somewhere, I'll probably pick one of these Mark III's up instead.

I appreciate everyone's help.

Peace,

Wow!

Thank you so much! I had the worst luck tracking those down! You are amazing!

I really appreciate your help. Now it's off to seeing who will ship to the States,
