The Atari Jaguar CD or Jag CD is a CD-ROM peripheral for the Atari Jaguar video game console. Late in the life span of the company Atari released this long-promised CD-ROM unit. The unit hit shelves on September 21 1995 and retailed for $149.95. The device sits atop the Jaguar console snapping very firmly into the ROM cartridge slot. The drive has its own cartridge slot to allow cartridge games to be played without removing the CD drive.
