Will there be support for mappers 5, 6, 7 in the future? #6

Mapper 5 is very difficult to emulate but possible, not anytime soon though. Mapper 6 seems to have too much CHR-RAM but possible with some changes to core PPU emulation. Mapper 7 is possible.

For information about mapper support, see the "Mappers" tab of this spreadsheet. The "Summary" tab explains mapper color scheme. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xKZIyNz1DSI3ZBdMfaTEaa_9b6IEABx-ZPwOb6XqcLQ/edit?usp=sharing

Whether they will be added in the future depends on how far I go with this project. Likeliness of these mappers being added goes 7>6>5.

Thanks for the answer. The most important thing is that you make a mapper 7 since the game Battletoads and Double Dragon was made on it. It would be nice if you left your donation details somewhere!

Even considering the absolute awesomeness of this emulator, I have serious doubt it will ever emulate battletoads though :D

Mapper 7 added to v1.4 but multiple fixes need to be made for Battletoads to work.
