These have all been investigated as of right now. The only ones skipped were the demo discs as that's its own nightmare for another time. It turns out they WERE all Australian releases though, besides [https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=SESUWR&redirect=no one]. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 13:20, 9 June 2017 (CEST)

These were all investigated, but I only found a cover for [[Skylanders: Trap Team]] and [[Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two]]. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 11:00, 12 June 2017 (CEST)

This region ID is used for Chinese language releases of games when available. Since video game consoles were banned in China from 2000-2015, this means that the titles could only have been released in Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, or Taiwan realistically. Though a title may see release in multiple countries from this list, it seems that the ID prefix stays the same and the W region is preserved. For example, [[Super Mario Galaxy 2]] had [http://art.gametdb.com/wii/coverfullHQ/ZH/SB4W01.png?1317736308 two] [https://gamefaqs.akamaized.net/box/8/3/3/113833_back.jpg releases] with the W region code, one for Taiwan and the other for Hong Kong/Macau (note in particular the English text right above the ID stating this).
