-		Here are Disch's original notes:  
-		========================
-		=  Mapper 245          =
-		========================
-
-
-		Example Games:
-		--------------------------
-		Chu Han Zheng Ba - The War Between Chu & Han
-		Xing Ji Wu Shi - Super Fighter
-		Yin He Shi Dai
-		Yong Zhe Dou e Long - Dragon Quest VII (As)
-		Dong Fang de Chuan Shuo - The Hyrule Fantasy
-
-
-		Notes:
-		---------------------------
-		Another ?Chinese? MMC3 clone.  Very similar to your typical MMC3.  For MMC3 info, see mapper 004.
-
-		Register layout is identical to a typical MMC3.
-
-
-
-		CHR Setup:
-		---------------------------
-
-		CHR-RAM is not swappable.  When there is no CHR-ROM present, 8k CHR-RAM is fixed.  However the CHR Mode bit
-		($8000.7) can still "flip" the left/right pattern tables.
-
-		Example:
-
-							$0000   $0400   $0800   $0C00   $1000   $1400   $1800   $1C00 
-						+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
-		CHR-RAM, Mode 0:  |             { 0 }             |             { 1 }             |
-						+-------------------------------+-------------------------------+
-		CHR-RAM, Mode 1:  |             { 1 }             |             { 0 }             |
-						+---------------------------------------------------------------+
-		CHR-ROM:          |                          Typical MMC3                         |
-						+---------------------------------------------------------------+
-
-
-		PRG Setup:
-		---------------------------
-
-		PRG Setup is the same as a normal MMC3, although there's a PRG-AND of $3F, and games select a 512k Block with
-		bit 1 of R:0.  Pretty simple really:
-
-		R:0:  [.... ..P.]
-
-		'P'    PRG-AND    PRG-OR
-		--------------------------
-		0       $3F        $00
-		1       $3F        $40
-
- 
-		R:0 remains the normal MMC3 CHR reg, as well.  Although the game that uses it as a PRG block selector ("DQ7")
-		uses CHR-RAM, so it is normally ignored.
