iNES Mapper 033 represents Taito's TC0190. It also represents a subset of Taito's TC0350, but the only game we currently know to have used that IC didn't use its interrupt abilities (which are identical to those described on iNES Mapper 048).

Note that unlike the MMC3, the value written for the two 2 KiB CHR banks do not drop the LSB; the number written specifies the offset into CHR as a multiple of 2 KiB. Furthermore, it turns out the MSB of the register is implemented (even if no games ever used it) and the two 2 KiB CHR banks can address a full 512 KiB of CHR. (The four 1 KiB CHR banks are limited to the first 256 KiB of CHR)
