 1: conceivably an input instead of a power supply?
 2-4, 45-47: goes to a 6 bit DAC, and then mixed with system audio
 9,10: Swapped between m24 (VRC6a) and m26 (VRC6b), but which is which is not known
 16: passes through a small pulse-shaping network consisting of a resistor, diode, and capacitor.
 32: This is odd: this would only be useful if the VRC6 supported ROM nametables.
