Title: Older Game Systems Question
Post by: sportswizdan on September 09, 2005, 01:27:46 am

Hi...In the rom files for sega and nintendo games and other older systems, there are games with(u) after the game name. I take it thats for USA, but which one do you keep when there is:
basewars (u)
basewars (u)b1
basewars (u)b2
basewars (u)01
basewars (J)     
I take it the "J" is for japan, but which "u" version should I keep in my folder?
What do the "b" "b1" "u01" codes stand for?
Thanks in advance,
Dan
