And Kept it in the Family, + Sum Family's still Play it Today :)
+ all the 
Korean Collectors hu have it in there Collections :)
No Disk Or Tape,
Just 1 Cartridge slot
& 2 Joystick/JoyPad Ports.

Cartridge Games :D

The Zemina Expansion Slot (확장 슬롯)
is an slot double that was sold in the late 80's, early 90's also by

It expands one primary slot connector to two slots,
using pin 5 diverted as second slot select.
