Cartridge

From Sega Retro

A cartridge stores a game's ROM data, and in some cases also contains additional hardware such as the battery-powered SRAM.

  • The Sonic & Knuckles cartridge has another cartridge slot on top of it. This is "Lock-On Technology".
  • Micro Machines 96 has two additional joypad ports on the front of the cartridge, making it a "J-Cart".
  • Virtua Racing contains a DSP chip, allowing for enhanced graphics.
