Yeah it was just a way they came up with that let them go past what they thought was the limit for cart size, but afaik it didn't involve any extra hardware or anything like that, and I don't think KOF 2003 uses anything extra either. Remember, it isn't all that difficult to do this kind of thing on a cart system, as it can just pull the characters it needs right out of the carts memory, theres no need to load them in or anything. Hell, even the SNES could have done it - remember in Mortal Kombat, you could morph into any character with Shang Tsung, while even the Playstation versions couldn't do it as it would have had to load them off the CD (and didn't have enough memory to store them all at one time).
As far as I know, you have to wait for a bar to charge up before you can tag a character in, but otherwise it works similarly to MvC2 I think. The main reason they put this limit on the tagging is to stop things from getting cheap - if you could tag in and out constantly, can you imagine the kind of infinites that people would most likely figure out? Hell, there's already complaints about it now, let alone if you could tag whenever you wanted to
