Cartridge

From D. S. Cohen, for About.com

Definition: The casing and hardware containing a video game software program.
Also Known As: Cart, Cartridges
Examples: Game Boy games rarely take a long time to load because the cartridge allows the software information to instantly become available, instead of disc based systems that only allow a little info at a time.
