The 50hz Europe thread

Not having a 50hz console anymore anywhere at home I managed to find a great comparion series of videos specifically on Sonic by someone in the UK who compared the PAL vs NTSC speeds across the 16 bit series:

Be warned, there are some serious English accents, borders on games and living rooms to handle. When I said there were borders I’m sure some people who are seeing this really didn’t know how big they were!

Oh and chuffed means pleased.

Doesn’t Brazil use PAL as well? That would definitely push PAL into being the canonical way of experiencing Master System games by sheer cultural exposure.

They do indeed and still enjoy the master system today!

And because Brazil uses both 110 and 240v you can easily use it in Europe! I will get one next year when my friend goes back there for his annual holiday, but they are available on amazon on Brazil.
