FAQ:
Q: What is the difference between RR-Net and RR-Net (old)?
A: The current RR-Net has been designed to harmonize with the MMC Replay: Plug the new RR-Net to the MMC Replay, they will fit together in one cartridge case. Even though the old RR-Net works with MMC Replay technically, its connector points upwards, and therefor it would overlap the freeze/reset button. Similar problems appear with the new RR-Net when you try to plug it to a Retro Replay: Because the network connector points to the right, the network cable would overlap with the freeze/reset button (see photo).
