Title: FM Towns Marty RAM Expansion?
Post by: lukester on April 30, 2013, 11:21:03 AM

Anyone know if FM Towns Marty has a ram expansion? I know there is an official one, but I don't really know how it works/extremely rare, and are there any other cards compatible? I know it has a PCMCIA Type 1 slot...

The official RAM expansion goes into the IC card slot.  But upgrading the RAM in a Marty really serves no purpose.  All the games that require extra RAM also need a 486 or better cpu to run smoothly.  Mahou Daisakusen and SSFII are unplayable on a 386 no matter how much RAM you throw at them.
