Hell, I like that. What could possibly go wrong?

Uh, what would the category be, though? "This game has unrelated game data / graphics"? Would stuff like this or this count?

So this wouldn't count either? It's not game data, but it snuck in there for some reason.
(I've stumbled upon lots of games with similar stuff, and it fits more in this theoretical new category than in "unused text".)

It's not always data from games - I remember (and I don't know if these are on the wiki or not) two games for the Watara Supervision that contain large fragments of outdated Microsoft API documentation and some IBM software disassembly, for whatever reason.

What about games where it used dummy data to push the data to the outer edges, like https://tcrf.net/Honoo_no_Takuhaibin ?

I think maybe "this game contains leftover junk data" might work well enough. We can elaborate more on the category page itself, but basically any data that was not intentionally added by either the compiler or a developer would count.

| Anyone knows the exact address I got to reset to $00 to avoid the Ortah crash? I have a save-state only run (yeah, I never remembered to actually save the game) that is stuck on that crash and would like to fix it =/ |
