'''iNES Mapper 115''' is an [[MMC3]] clone used by [[wikia:c:bootleggames:NT|Carson]] (卡聖), which uses "NT" model numbers for its games.
'''iNES Mapper 115''' denotes the 卡聖 (Kǎshèng) SFC-02B/-03/-004 boards, bearing an [[MMC3]]-clone with a 256 KiB outer CHR-ROM bank register and an NROM-like PRG-ROM register that can override the MMC3 clone's PRG-ROM bank. Used by:
Some games formerly assigned as mapper 248 (such as Bao Qing Tian/Justice Pao) should be emulated with this mapper 115.

  Example Game:
* [[INES Mapper 114]] has the same $6000 and $6001 registers, but additionally scrambles MMC3 register addresses and indices. Also, Mapper 114's IRQ behavior resembles "NEC" behavior, i.e. a latch value of zero disables IRQ.

* [[INES Mapper 187]] has a similar NROM override register, placed at $5000

  ---------------------------
  [[MMC3]] variant.  For info on MMC3, see [[INES Mapper 004|mapper 004]].
 
  Regs at $6000-7FFF means no PRG-RAM
 
 
  Registers:
  ---------------------------
 
  Range,Mask:  $6000-7FFF, $6001
 
    $6000:  [O... PPPP]
      O = PRG Mode
      P = 16k PRG Page
 
    $6001:  [.... ...C]
      C = CHR Block select
 
    $8000-FFFF:  Same as MMC3
 
 
  CHR Setup:
  ---------------------------
 
  'C' selects a 256k CHR block for all the CHR selected by the MMC3.  You can think of this as a CHR-OR of
  $000 or $100 depending on 'C'.
 
 
  PRG Setup:
  ---------------------------
 
        $8000  $A000  $C000  $E000 
        +-------------------------------+
  O=0:  |              MMC3            |
        +-------------------------------+
  O=1:  |    $6000    |    MMC3      |
        +---------------+---------------+
 
  Normal MMC3 PRG setup applies.  If the O mode bit is set, then $8000-BFFF no longer reflects the typical MMC3
  setup, and instead has a 16k page selected by $6000.

Notes

  • Unlike many similar mappers, the $600x registers are not connected to the MMC3 clone's WRAM interface and thus function regardless of whether WRAM is enabled or not.
  • IRQ behavior resembles "Sharp" behavior, i.e. a latch value of zero causes an IRQ on every scanline, on which the Chinese version of 幽☆遊☆白書 Final (Yuu Yuu Hakusho Final) depends.

Similar Mappers

  • INES Mapper 114 has the same $6000 and $6001 registers, but additionally scrambles MMC3 register addresses and indices. Also, Mapper 114's IRQ behavior resembles "NEC" behavior, i.e. a latch value of zero disables IRQ.
  • INES Mapper 187 has a similar NROM override register, placed at $5000
  • INES Mapper 248 is a duplicate of Mapper 115.
