sega keychips #47

Open Hay1tsme opened 2 years ago

Hay1tsme commented 2 years ago

This pastebin has ~3900 (plus some duplicate) keychips. After parsing through it, this regex seems to encompass all of them: A\d{2}(E01|X20)[ABCDU]\d{4}

Interestingly, I found the presence of A65X A75E and A72X which I don't think are documents, and I can't find the source of.

A72x is documented in sega/identifiers.md, but A65X and A75X are new ones! I wonder what they're for...

Hay1tsme commented 2 years ago

A72E I've seen for all re, re2 and rw, but I've never seen A72X

A00X (as in, A, 2 numbers, X) are commonly development keychips not intended to leave Sega's halls. There's also A59E/X which seems to be the new dongle type used in, for example, Chunithm New.
