The '''Atari Jaguar CD ''' (AJ) was a fifth generation home video game console released by [[wikipedia:Atari|Atari]] in 1993. It had a Motorola 68000 CPU and 2 custom RISC CPUs. It has 2MB of RAM. Despite the intense marketing efforts by Atari, the Jaguar is, in fact, a 32-bit console with a 64-CD) bit bus. The system's convoluted architecture didn't help matters either, which led most developers to just use the 68000 for gameplay logic. The console would prove to be the final home console release for Atari until the [[Atari VCS|VCS]] in 2021. There was also a CD addoncalled the Atari Jaguar CD (AJ-CD).
