What is the back slot for ?
Memory cartridges, Game Sharks, and NetLink adapters that work if you use a DreamPi.
I use mine for an Action Reply (basically a Game Shark) and it lets me play North American games on my Japanese console.
The model doesn’t really matter. The Japanese ones tend to be a bit easier to get for a good deal.
Then I’m lucky to have an NA model myself.
These days you can use it with a flashed 4MB action replay cartridge to play burned discs
