==Standard Codes==
 
*[!] - The game is a verified good dump
 
*[aX] - The game is an alternative re-release to the original copy

*[hX] - The game has been hacked
 
*[h1C] - Further identifies a hack as a cartname hack
 
*[oX] - An overdumped ROM image has more data than is actually in the cart. The extra information means nothing and is removed from the true image.
 
*[pX] - A pirated version of a ROM Image. Usually the copyright messages and company names are corrupted/removed.
 
*[tX] - The game has been supplied with a trainer
 
*[x] - Wrong checksum (Needs verifying). Potentially- [c][!] or a bad dump

*(32X) - 32X game
 
*(4) - While this code is technically the same as a (U) code, it is a newer header format and represents that the cart will run on USA and Brazil NTSC machines.
 
*(B) - This country code indicates that the cart will run on any non-US machine.
 
*[c] - This code represents a cart with known faulty checksum routines.
