BS ROMs (These Japanese ROMs were distributed through a satellite system in Japan known as the Broadcast Satellaview. They were transmitted along with a TV show which was connected to the game in some way. These games were only playable during the show, and thus stop after an hour, and many were timed so that only certain time periods were playable)(ST)

Thanks for putting this together !!! ...I recently came across this Hack: https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/1430/
Which requires
Super C (KC).nes
: So, I'm curious what "KC" stands for it ?Don't tell me it's "Korea & China", because then, by that logic, (FC) could also mean "France & China", (HK) could also mean "Holland & Korea", and (UK) could also mean "USA & Korea" ? lol
EDIT:
Using diff & cmp, we can compare this file to the other binary releases of Super C:
And it appears that this particular file might be a mislabeled HACK of the US version ???
...Unless Konami really took the US version, made a few changes & re-released it in "Korea & China" in 2002 ???

means Konami Classic
