 The built-in sticker printer is a signature feature of the Loopy, allowing players to create and print custom stickers directly from the console. Games use functions provided by Mask ROM BIOS to make use of the printer.
+Saving game progress is usually done through the use of SRAM on each cartridge.
+Cartridge sizes range from 2MB to 3MB for retail games. The memory map allows for a max size of 4MB without the use of bankswitching.
+The system notably only features a single controller port (though it would appear the system supports at least 2 controllers internally).
