---------------------------+---------------------------
 As discussed with AndywinXp today, here's a quick summary of the various
 inaccuracies we still have in our implementation of Maniac Mansion NES.

 The idea is to have a list tracked somewhere.

 https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=SCUMM/NES#Known_Issues already
 lists:

 > * Moving the cursor in the verb/inventory area will 'select' objects in
 the room if they touch the top of the room (example: stairs)
 > * Text wrapping doesn't work for the sentence bar (it moves down 1
 pixel, right in the middle of the word; needs to wrap at name/word
 boundaries)
 > * Walking and talking at the same time doesn't work - stop walking while
 talking and your mouth will not move, stop talking while walking and you
 start sliding across the room.
 > * Clicking in the top 16 pixels of the screen (above the subtitle bar)
 crashes the program.
 > * Walkboxes have some bugs - in some cases, you can walk through
 corners. This appears to be a bug with all V1-V2 games.
 > * The 'maniac mansion' logo scroll during the intro gets stuck due to a
 camera issue (original engine expects screen to be 224 wide, but in
 ScummVM it's 256 wide so it can't scroll far enough).

 then there are the Trac tickets mentionning "NES":
 https://bugs.scummvm.org/query?game=Maniac+Mansion&status=!closed

 and more could probably be found by the usual suspects: hardcore players,
 speedrunners, and people like us who have fun comparing emulators against
 our engine implementation ;)
