- VCC IN - It appears the SGCD is capable of powering the main console through these pins. Power from them is routed directly to the console power switch through a pair of diodes.
- Cart B21 - This pin connects to the cartridge slot B21, function unknown.
- Audio - This is assumed functional, but is untested.
