Unused Graphics

Elementary, my dear Cactus.
This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically:
  • There's some text graphics in the same CHR bank as this. Are they also unused?
  • Find out if this has a proper palette and/or tilemap associated with it.
  • I'm a bit skeptical if this is actually unused, since this game isn't well documented, being a boring chess simulator and all.

This rather detailed devil graphic is found right at the end of the ROM.
