- What is the maximum amount of ROM & RAM that you can put
in a cart ?
The GB & GBC can only access 32K bytes ROM & 8K bytes cart RAM at one time. As a
result, this is all you can access unless you use a Memory Bank Controller (MBC) or design
something similar yourself that does the same function. The total amount of ROM or RAM
accessible then becomes a function of the limitation of the MBC itself. Yon can have
virtually unlimited ROM or RAM in a cart if you design your own MBC from scratch. If you
use a Nintendo MBC, then here are the Nintendo
MBC limits.
