| The SNES has some interesting colour characteristics. The colour, theo-    |
| retically is 15 bit; each RGB value (Red, Green, and Blue) has 5 bits for  |
| each colour.                                                               |
|                                                                            |
| When it comes to putting the colour data into $2122 (see SNES.1 for an ex- |
| planation on what $2122 is, if you haven't already), the format (in binary)|
| is the following:                                                          |
|   b: Blue                   ?bbbbbgg gggrrrrr                              |
|   g: Green                                                                 |
|   r: Red                                                                   |
|   ?: I need to know what this bit does.                                    |
|                                                                            |
| A quick colour chart could be the following:                               |
|   $7FFF [0111 1111 1111 1111]: White.                                      |
|   $001F [0000 0000 0001 1111]: Red.                                        |
|   $03E0 [0000 0011 1110 0000]: Green.                                      |
|   $7C00 [0111 1100 0000 0000]: Blue.                                       |
|   $7C1F [0111 1100 0001 1111]: Purple.                                     |
|   $7FE0 [0111 1111 1110 0000]: Aqua.                                       |
|   $03FF [0000 0011 1111 1111]: Yellow.                                     |
