Kirby's Amazing Mirror prototype has MA as the maker, but it also has
MAKO as the game code (and MAKOTOSAMPLE as the internal name)
The multiboot ROM used with Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles on Gamecube uses
GC, which might be Square, but it also might be them setting the game code
to whatever they want because it's not meant to be used without the Gamecube
game, or it might be to indicate GameCube
Some I found in non-commercially released roms, just out of interest since unlicensed
games by definition have nothing to do with licensee codes:
I'm ignoring anything that has characters that aren't numbers or uppercase letters
