→MSU-1
Cue the MSU-1, which aims to add some of these features to the SNES. It's a custom fan-made hardware specification for an additional chip, eventually made available and working with real SNES hardware, as the SD2SNES flashcard. It's the closest to the SNES-CD that you'll ever get. No more 12MB maximum cartridge size limitation!
One inconvenience is that this specification isn't really supported by most emulators. It's currently supported by the SD2SNES flash card, bsnes (v075 and up), higan (v094 and up), and Snes9x (v11.55 and up). These hacks simply won't work at all in other emulators, unless their developers implement an MSU-1 check to let the game run in these emulators without the MSU-1 enhancements (the MSU-1 specification has a specific feature to allow for compatibility testing).
