iNES Mapper 038 represents the board used for Bit Corp.'s Crime Busters. It is another mapper almost identical to GNROM (66) except the bits and writeable port moved around.

Overview

  • PRG ROM size: 128 KiB
  • PRG ROM bank size: 32 KiB
  • PRG RAM: Impossible
  • CHR capacity: 32 KiB ROM
  • CHR bank size: 8 KiB
  • Nametable mirroring: Hardwired vertical mirroring
  • Subject to bus conflicts: no

Registers

Bank Select ($7000-$7FFF)

7  bit  0

     ||||
     ||++- Select 32 KB PRG ROM bank for CPU $8000-$FFFF
     ++--- Select 8 KB CHR ROM bank for PPU $0000-$1FFF

Hardware

Writes to $F000-$FFFF are very likely to also trigger a bankswitch, but well behaved code has no reason to. The 74138 used by this board uses /ROMSEL and R/W on its enable inputs, but /ROMSEL is 1 while M2 is low, not just while M2 is high and and A15 is low. As a result, before M2 is high, if the 2A03's A14, A13, and A12 lines are 1 and R/W is 0, the 74161's /LOAD line will still load from the data bus.

Emulator oversize support

 FCEUX (2.1.5):
  $7000-$7FFF: [CCCC CCPP]

 Nestopia (1.4.0h):
  $6000-$7FFF: [CCCC CC..]
               [PPPP PPPP]
