Enhancements

16:9 Aspect Ratio Fix

The built-in Widescreen Hack causes Board Clipping and Reflection Issues. The following Gecko code works as a replacement, causing less issues. To avoid conflicts, make sure that Widescreen Hack is disabled while using this code. The 16:9 included in the game only works in menus and the title screen so a Widescreen fix is necessary.
