overview
The plug-in module can freeze and save complete games, for most consoles such saved games can be found on the Internet.

The first Action Replay was designed for the C64 in the 1980s , successors were Action Replay II , III , IV and VI . The Amiga version was also called Action Replay and contained a “brake” that could be adjusted using a potentiometer , which reduced the working speed and thus the game speed. There were three versions of this for the A500 , A2000 and later the A1200 . The successors were the versions Action Replay Mk II and Mk III .
