NES 2.0 Mapper 342 is used for the homebrew COOLGIRL multicart. In addition to native registers, it can simulate about 25 commercial-era mappers on a hardware level. It can address up to 128 MiB of PRG-ROM, 512 KiB of CHR-RAM, and 32 KiB of WRAM. Like the [[NES 2.0 Mapper 268|COOLBOY]] mapper that inspired it, CHR-RAM is filled with pattern data copied from PRG-ROM by the multicart menu after a game has been selected. Its UNIF board name is just '''COOLGIRL'''.

NES 2.0 Mapper 342 is used for the homebrew COOLGIRL multicart. In addition to native registers, it can simulate about 25 commercial-era mappers on a hardware level. It can address up to 128 MiB of PRG-ROM, 512 KiB of CHR-RAM, and 32 KiB of WRAM. Like the COOLBOY mapper that inspired it, CHR-RAM is filled with pattern data copied from PRG-ROM by the multicart menu after a game has been selected. Its UNIF board name is just COOLGIRL.
