It's an extra 4 MB of RAM that can be added to the 4 MB already in the system. Games can use it for improving graphics, and some games actually require it, such as Zelda: Majora's Mask and Donkey Kong 64.

The expansion pack replaces the jumper pack and is used to increase the graphics memory from 4 to 8 megabytes. Some games, such as Donkey Kong 64, require the expansion pack to play.
