Talk:NES 2.0 Mapper 342

It's a surprise for me to see the article about my own homebrew mapper. Who and how assigned the mapper number for it? Cluster (talk) 23:52, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

NewRisingSun did so, as part of his "allocate mappers for everything in UNIF" and "generate an authoritative set of headers for NES2.0" —Lidnariq (talk) 00:48, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Everybody can create his own mapper. I don't think that every mapper should have a number. Especially when there are no emulators (official builds) that emulate it. And especially when this mapper is still under development. Cluster (talk) 15:09, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

I would be pretty honored to be responsible for a new mapper number myself. Is there a particular reason that you didn't want this to happen? Do you intend to prevent others from using it or patent it or something? I guess I am a little jealous. Help me understand where you are coming from on this.

I don't mind assigning a number to my mapper. On the contrary, it is an honor for me. It just surprised me, and I think out loud. Cluster (talk) 06:09, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
