NES 2.0 Mapper 452 denotes the DS-9-27 multicart circuit board, used for the RCM 1992 蓋世 190-in-1 劃面選關 multicart with 1 MiB PRG ROM, 8 KiB PRG RAM and 8 KiB unbanked CHR RAM. The 8 KiB of PRG RAM can be mapped anywhere between $8000-$FFFF and are used to run NROM games from partially-decompressed data, creating some rather bizarre memory layouts.
Address/Data Latch ($8000-$DFFF), write
A~[1... BBBB BBb.] D~[..WW QLNM]
|||| ||| || |||+- Mirroring, 1=Horizontal
|||| ||| || ||+-- 1=NROM-128-like mode
|||| ||| || |+--- $E000-$FFFF bank bit 4s in NROM-256-like mode
|||| ||| || +---- 1=NROM-256-like mode
|||| ||| ++------ 8 KiB PRG RAM CPU address
++++-+++- PRG A19..A13
The latch seems to purposefully not respond in the $E000-$FFFF range to allow writing to PRG RAM mapped to that range without changing the mapper configuration. The following effective memory arrangements are possible:
Bit 3 Bit 1 PRG ROM banking
$08s $02s
0 0 UNROM-like with fixed bank 0:
16 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBB at CPU $8000-$BFFF
16 KiB PRG ROM bank 0 at CPU $C000-$FFFF
0 1 NROM-128-like:
8 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBBb at CPU $8000-$9FFF
8 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBBb at CPU $A000-$BFFF
8 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBBb at CPU $C000-$DFFF
8 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBBb at CPU $E000-$FFFF
1 ? NROM-256-like:
8 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBBb OR 0 at CPU $8000-$9FFF
8 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBBb OR 1 at CPU $A000-$BFFF
8 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBBb OR 2 at CPU $C000-$DFFF
8 KiB PRG ROM bank BBBBBBb OR 3 OR L*4 at CPU $E000-$FFFF
8 KiB of PRG RAM overlay PRG ROM in the address range specified by the WW bits:
WW Address range 00 $8000-$9FFF, also $C000-$DFFF in NROM-128-like mode only 01 $A000-$BFFF, also $E000-$FFFF in NROM-128-like mode only 10 $C000-$DFFF, also $8000-$9FFF in NROM-128-like mode only 11 $E000-$FFFF, also $A000-$BFFF in NROM-128-like mode only
The "NROM-128-like" mode becomes such because at two of the four 8 KiB banks are overlaid with PRG RAM.
