The most interesting one being the SA-1 chip. It's the exact same processor as in the SNES except clocked much faster, 10.74MHz instead of 3.58MHz. This means you can hack games to have their original code run on the SA-1 instead of the original CPU. Which is exactly what Vitor Vitela did for numerous games to remove their massive slowdowns.

But funny you mention the slowdown, because this past year hacker Vitor Vilela released a ROMhack to eliminate it... :O
