− | The System 24 used two [[Motorola 68000]] processors at 10 MHz. One was for booting, while the other was used by the game. The board holds 1360KB of RAM and 256KB of [[ROM]]. It was the first Sega arcade system that required a medium resolution arcade monitor. The color palette was 4352 selectable from 32,768. The system could support up to 2048 sprites on-screen at once.

− | Sound was driven by a YM2151 at 4MHz; it was capable of delivering 8 channels of FM sound in addition to a DAC used for sound effects and speech synthesis. Early System 24s loaded their program off of floppy disks. Later, some games such as ''Bonanza Bros.'' used CD-ROMs or hardware ROM boards to store games. No matter which storage device was used, a special security chip was required for each game an operator wanted to play.
