Can anyone tell me what this is? I got it with a box of random stuff, and I have no idea.

Ah, I do not have, nor have I ever owned a Saturn, so that explains why I had no idea what it was. Thanks!

any Saturn get in contact with it get its cart lot ruined for life...

I happened to get a ton of use out of my Memory Card Plus, no joking either. After I ruined the first one, yep me, and all of my Dragon Force saves, I went out and bought a 2nd and have been totally happy with it as well.

ROFL! I've been using that cart in my Saturn for YEARS with no issues. Not even an accidental erasure.

Then you are a lucky man...ironically this same device (or similar to it) was placed into the GameShark for Saturn as well I think.

almost all 3rd party carts used thicker PCB than the one Sega used and hence Saturn cart slot pins are designed for their cart if you use the thick board it will spread out the pins further than 1st party. Also the cart slot used on Saturn wasn't one of good quality part. You should be deduce what will happen from this combo then... :p

Yep there always will be few exception though...

In my case the memory card was never removed from the slot, which is why I think I had much success.
