What’s a Penultimate Cartridge? Well, it’s probably the only VIC20 cartridge you’ll ever need.

Not only is it a 3-35k selectable RAM cartridge, it also contains over 40 ROM images. And if thats not enouth it’ll boot to your SD2IEC.

Check out ChinnyVision’s Penultimate Cartridge review. Worth a click to see a round up of it’s functions

In real life we are aiming to recreate the VIC20 utility cartridge colour. We call it Dark Brown or Teak.
