You need a security bit set and a good rechargeable screwdriver. This bit set is the one I have and is relatively cheap. It does every security screw I have come across on game carts other than the standard NES, SNES, and Genesis cart screws. Those need the 4.5 mm and 6 mm 6-lug bits like somebody linked earlier in this thread.

 

Security bit set

 

I have circled the spanner type bits in the following image that I use on the EA Genesis three-wing security screws. These spanner bits will only engage two of the three inserts in the screw heads, and will therefore turn slightly off-center, but they will remove and re-tighten those screws.

 

I highly suggest NEVER EVER using a cordless screwdriver on plastic cases. Aside from that great post.
