Time to give up your Switch because a black man invented the game cartridge.

from Wiki:

he led the development of the Fairchild Channel F console, released in 1976 and specifically designed to use swappable game cartridges based on technology licensed from Alpex

“technology licensed from Alpex”

Doesn’t look like he invented it. I can keep muh Switch.

@Bro-Drillard @rasterman @ChristiJunior@neckbeard.xyz He didn't invent the ROM cartridge itself but he was the first to use them in consoles. So, he invented the game cartridge.
