Is there any code to detect if a game is running on an MD-Pro?

I suppose you could check to see if SRAM is present on even bytes to detect that it is NOT running on an MD-Pro..

Do emulators allow writes to the last byte in MD-Pro SRAM (0x20FFFF)?

The only method I can think of is to try to switch sram banks. Write the sram bank register with 0, write some data, write it with 1, then check for the data. On a different cart or emu, it should show the same data. On an MD-Pro, it should show different data.

Most emulators support at least as much sram as a single bank in the MD-Pro, but don't support the MD-Pro sram bank selection.
