That would allow them to have 8K or 16K of program code, but it would still plug in and run on an original 1980 CoCo. For that matter, it would be conceivable for someone to create a HUGE bank switched ROM Pak with 128K of code, graphics, sound, etc. and feed it all in to the 4K machine — imagine the demo (limited only by 4K of RAM, so you couldn’t use the larger graphics screens that needed more than 4K just to display). Interesting ideas.

Just for reference, Fahrfall would meet these requirements...
