[Outdated] Apparent differences between N64 DS common Nintendo regions
I have a suspicion that all Nintendo product codes use the same country codes and as such N64 and DS can just use NintendoCommon, but I need to prove that first
Yeah they do, ignore every single thing on this page thx
TODO: Need to get a Canadian Wii release and one of those Swedish GameCube releases and verify those are as I expect and everything else should be fine. We'll say A is worldwide and 1080 Snowboarding is just weird
Actually just look it up in Redump's disc list since they record the game ID, so yeah, Sweden is fine (definitely M), and UK is just P so I don't think that counts as a separate region
Canadian Wii games are frickin Z? Wrabaghghghgaahghhghghhh
A: Maybe worldwide although this is troubling as the one N64 game with this isn't really worldwide
- DS: Apparently worldwide (but O is worldwide, or is it)

Some countries that apparently have Nintendo games specific to them but aren't mentioned here, and could be one of those unknown or undefined ones:
- The region known overall as "Asia" even though that's more of a continent has some Wii games, two NES games but those wouldn't have product codes, and Yoshi's Island for SNES with USA/Asia (might not have country code)
- Hong Kong only has one official release, being Sangokushi 3 for SNES which was invented before country codes
- Some GameCube and Wii games are listed as UK specifically and not Europe, or is that just Redump deciding to do that
