Because [[APU DMC]] is usually restricted to $C000-$FFFF, this behavior might be useful for games with a lot of recorded speech.
Crazy Climber had a special "climber stick" add-on that mounted a stick on top of the Famicom's directional pad.
But like [[BNROM]] and [[AxROM]], this configuration requires the 6502's vectors to sit in the last few bytes of each bank.


[[iNES Mapper 097|Mapper 97]] adds mapper-selectable 1sc/H/V mirroring (and changes the fixed bank).
For a similar mapper with additional mirroring control, see [[iNES Mapper 097]].

INES Mapper 180 is used to represent an unusual configuration of the UNROM board used only for the game Crazy Climber.

Notes

It is similar in principle to the more common INES Mapper 002 configuration but uses AND logic (74HC08) instead of OR logic (74HC32), producing a fixed first bank at $8000 rather than a fixed last bank at $C000.

Crazy Climber had a special "climber stick" add-on that mounted a stick on top of the Famicom's directional pad.

For a similar mapper with additional mirroring control, see iNES Mapper 097.

Banks

  • CPU $8000-$BFFF: 16 KB PRG ROM bank, fixed to the first bank
  • CPU $C000-$FFFF: 16 KB switchable PRG ROM bank

Registers

Bank select ($8000-$FFFF)
