Aside from Nintendo's produced Wide Boy (which were available only to
game reviewers so they could get screen captures of GB games), yours is
the only one produced.

They also produced one for the PSX which plugged into the expansion port
where the GameShark typically attached. Same thing tho', no sound.

Actually, mine is called the "Super GB Booster", but yeah the physical
cartridge itself looks to be IDENTICAL...
