A Tsuushin Cartridge (Japanese: 通信カートリッジ), translated as Communication Cartridge is a type of Nintendo storage medium. It is inserted into the Famicom Network System; supporting firmware for Internet supported Nintendo software.

However, the third-party Tsuushin Cartridge by Konami called Tsuushin Shogi Club may have been an exception for playing Shogi online.
