  Notes:
  ---------------------------
  UxROM has bus conflicts, however mapper 002 is meant to be UxROM and compatible.  So some mappers which were
  similar in function, but did not have bus conflicts are included.
 
  Additionally, UxROM does not have an 8 bit reg.  UNROM is capped at 128k PRG, and UOROM is capped at 256k.
 
  So to be "safe":
  - for homebrewing:  assume bus conflicts, do not exceed 256k
  - for emudev:  assume no bus conflicts, use all 8 PRG reg bits
 
  There is no CHR swapping.  Every mapper 002 game I've ever seen has CHR-RAM.
