:There's more of these than I expected starting out and I keep finding more. The X is the most common, used to denote different language PAL releases, so noting those has become pretty mechanical. Sometimes it's used instead of P for the only EU release of a title which is nonsense. The Y/Z are much rarer and are always(?) used for even more PAL languages; the logic here seems to be avoiding having one giant menu of languages for a standardized European release. I even found a [[R6KU36|U]] in there for a retail Wii game, maybe to denote Australia since that game seems to break the mold of AUS release being the exact same disc as the Brit release. When I'm done looking at all of these and have a good deal of the infoboxes looked at, I'll look into other non-WiiWare U IDs. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 08:47, 8 December 2016 (CET)
