From what I understand he was claiming it was going to use some super ultra mega special proprietary godchip but if I understand correctly just about all the chips are stock, the are mostly used for copy protection, and all it has special going for it that can't be done on a stock Genesis is the music, which could have been done if it was a SegaCD game anyway. Plus the game even has a fallback mode that uses the Genesis's sound hardware for music, though that does sound worse.
I think he claimed the game also has special features that let it use the additional hardware on the SegaCD for better enemy AI and something called a "Megawire" which I think was some kind of netplay capability. There is what appears to be some sort of jack/port on the top right that was likely meant for that, but I have no idea if it even works at all or does anything, same for if that enhanced AI think even was implemented at all.
Fonzie seems to love trying to make his games optionally use the SegaCD, when I was messing with the ROM I noticed that some emulators were trying to access SegaCD hardware from it even though it's a Genesis game, and with Pier Solar if you have a SegaCD the game had the option of letting you put the soundtrack CD in it and play the game with enhanced music off the CD.
