Overscan (240 lines)

PPU Register $2133 SETINI can choose either 224 or 240 lines of visible picture. Most games used 224, allowing a significantly longer vblank period, and the extra lines weren't normally visible on contemporary NTSC televisions.

Game Notes
Tetris & Dr. Mario Both NTSC and PAL versions used the overscan area.
Super Mario World The launch PAL release did not use overscan, but a later PAL revision did.
Super Mario All-Stars PAL version only.
