Description

Mode 5 doubles the horizontal resolution to 512 pixels using interlaced tile data. This provides sharper text and finer detail at the cost of reduced color depth (16 colors per BG).

Architecture

• Mode 5: Hi-res, one BG, 4bpp (16 colors)
• BG1: 512×256 hi-res image with interlaced tiles
• gfx4snes flag -M 5 generates the special interleaved tile format
