Description

Writes to the Memory Controller register

Writes the "data" value to the memory bank controller register (MBC1, MBC2, MBC3) specified by "addr." One byte is sufficient when writing to the memory bank controller register, but due to hardware restrictions with the GB Pak, data is written 32 bytes at a time. This function writes 0 for the first 31 bytes and writes the "data" value at the end. Please be careful, because the "data" value is written to an address that is 31 bytes larger than the address specified by "addr." nusys.h has the following variable definitions.

Register 0 NU_CONT_GBPAK_MBC_REG0_ADDR 0x0000
Register 1 NU_CONT_GBPAK_MBC_REG1_ADDR 0x2100
Register 2 NU_CONT_GBPAK_MBC_REG2_ADDR 0x4000
Register 3 NU_CONT_GBPAK_MBC_REG3_ADDR 0x6000

This function is for MBC1, MBC2, and MBC3. If using other memory controllers, please refer to this function.
