Every good #segasaturn fan knows about the 1MB and 4MB Extended RAM Carts that helped boost the console's memory for ports of 2D arcade fighters.*

What you might not know, however, is that they were preceded by two special ROM carts that each only worked with one game.

The first to see release was The King of Fighters '95, followed by Ultraman: Hikari no Kyojin Densetsu.

Unlike the rewritable Extended RAM Carts that gave the Saturn more system memory to work with, these were pre-written with data specific to the game they came bundled with.

* While the Extended RAM Carts could be used for any game that wanted/needed them, they tended to primarily be used to help with porting 2D fighting games.
