INES Mapper 227

The Chinese unlicensed game [NJXXX] Xiang Shuai Chuan Qi will fail to load pattern data if the below notes on write protection are employed. Is this feature only on some 227 carts (more likely multicarts)? The write protection has been temporarily disabled in fceux and bizhawk until more evidence is gathered. It should be noted that VirtuaNES doesn't use the write protection.

In r2750 of fceux this support was rewritten; it should still work. It supposedly works in nestopia as well.

 Here are Disch's original notes.

 ========================
 
 
 Example Game:
 --------------------------
 1200-in-1
 600-in-1
 
 
 Notes:
 ---------------------------
 This mapper has 8k CHR-RAM, and also has the ability to write protect it's CHR-RAM!
 
 
 Registers:
 ---------------------------
 This mapper uses the address written for its setup. The value is irrelevant.
 
   $8000-FFFF:  A~[.... .mLP  OPPP PPMS]
     L = Last PRG Page Mode
     P = PRG Reg
     O = Mode
     M = Mirroring (0=Vert, 1=Horz)
     S = PRG Size
     m = Menu list (see below)
 
 Setup:
 ---------------------------
 
 When 'O' is set, CHR-RAM is write protected (writes have no effect).  'O' also changes the PRG mode.
 
 Note there is funky ANDs and ORs going on below depending on the modes:
 
 
                   $8000   $A000   $C000   $E000  
                 +---------------+---------------+
 O=1, S=0:       |       P       |       P       |
                 +-------------------------------+
 O=1, S=1:       |             < P >             |
                 +-------------------------------+
 O=0, S=0, L=0:  |       P       |   P AND $38   |
                 +---------------+---------------+
 O=0, S=1, L=0:  |   P AND $3E   |   P AND $38   |
                 +---------------+---------------+
 O=0, S=0, L=1:  |       P       |   P  OR $07   |
                 +---------------+---------------+
 O=0, S=1, L=1:  |   P AND $3E   |   P  OR $07   |
                 +---------------+---------------+

 Menu list:
 ---------------------------
 The following information does not work for the 1200in1 cartridge!
 Bit 11 of the address written activates the menu list selection. When activated, reading anywhere
 at $8000-$FFFF returns the menu list type (value) described below; otherwise, returns PRG ROM
 data at $8000-$FFFF.
