It really is impressive, but it is also fair to point out that it uses the MXM-1 mapper which only came into existence in 2022 [1]. I find it pointless to argue whether it is "cheating" or not as the technology it uses was used for other consoles at the time and it is fun to see new mappers like this, but it is, again, very different compared to keeping it within the realm of original Famicom/NES mappers and limits.
