[quote="ferze"]Hi,

I have some more NES rom questions:

:?: Whats the meaning of "mapper number" and "mapper name" ?[/quote]
You may want to read a bit on FC/NES hardware first. [url=http://nesdev.parodius.com/NESTechFAQ.htm#mappers]This page[/url] may answer your question. A mapper name (board name) is just a different way to refer to the same thing (a mapper) and is usually used only when talking about UNIF.

[quote="ferze"]:?: What does it mean when there is no mapper name and number ?[/quote]
That you cannot run the game :-) It has to be clear (to an emulator) what memory mapping controller the game uses. Some games don't use (need) bank switching (page flipping/whatever you name it), but an emulator still has to be informed about that fact. IIRC mapper number 0 is reserved for that.

[quote="ferze"] :?: Whats "vertical" and "horizontal mirroring" on nes roms ?[/quote]
The page I referred to above [url=http://nesdev.parodius.com/NESTechFAQ.htm#ppumirror]answers[/url] that question too.
