MCM sells bits for this. They market them as
"Nintendo Type Screws" or
something like that, and say they are used to open NES Games (and is just
what I bought mine for... to replace the battery in a Monopoly cart).
Yes, they're used in Sega cartridges too.

NEC also used these screws for the TurboGrafx 16 system. Nintendo used
them for all but the earliest games for the original NES system. The N64
and GameCube also use these screws.
I sold my TurboGrafx 16 about a year ago, and now wish I hadn't :P
