Note: this page is likely inaccurate/confusing;

The Bank Address Register (also known as the bank byte) is Nintendo's name for the 8-bit register that fills in the most significant bits of a 24-bit address memory access by the 5A22. It keeps track of what bank the CPU is configured to use.

PLB is the only instruction that modifies this register.
