Other icons refer to status:

* [[File:Mfr icon Bad.png]] This mapper is "bad": it was used for something other than an actual cartridge. Some are [[mapper hack]]s designed for early disk-based copiers. Others are duplicate mappers that were assigned by mistake.
* [[File:Mfr icon Bad.png|16px]] Duplicately-assigned mapper
* [[File:Mfr icon Pirate MMC3.png]] "Pirate MMC3" mappers. Many are used for unauthorized [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/VideoGameDemake demakes] of 16-bit fighting games.
* [[File:Mfr icon tools.png|16px]] Mapper for internal use by emulators
* [[File:Mfr icon pirate.png]] Mappers used primarily by illegally copied games, usually multicarts, sometimes single-game mapper hacks.
* [[File:Mfr icon homebrew.png|16px]] Homebrew mapper
* [[File:Mfr icon homebrew.png]] Mappers developed by members of the NES homebrew scene for cart releases
* [[File:Mfr icon Pirate MMC3.png|16px]] Bootleg [[MMC3]]-based mapper
* [[File:Mfr icon Generic.png]] Mappers for which we have some information but no identified manufacturer.
* [[File:Mfr icon pirate.png|16px]] Bootleg non-MMC3-based mapper
* [[File:Mfr icon Missing.png]] Mappers that are not yet documented on this wiki. Do not assume undocumented mappers are currently unassigned; consult the Nestopia and Nintendulator source code.
* [[File:Mfr icon Generic.png|16px]] No manufacturer name
* [[File:Mfr icon Missing.png|16px]] Not yet documented here
