INES Mapper 006

Mapper 6 is used for FFE disk images. That is, for ROM-images stored on floppy disks as used by old copiers from Front Far East. Unlike normal ROM-images, these files are typically patched to work with the copiers mapping hardware, portions of these patches are typically stored in the so-called "trainer" area of iNES files (the iNES "trainer" apparently being poor japanese-to-english translation for "patch").

There are several FFE mapping variants: Mapper 6, Mapper 8, Mapper 12, and Mapper 17.

FCEUX ostensibly emulates this. As do most NES emulators.
