Very atypically, instead of using Shift JIS for the header's title as most Mega Drive games do, Magical Hat uses raw JIS X 0208 data instead. This was originally thought to be gibberish, as no modern program can actually decode data written in the JIS X 0208 standard. The data when manually decoded reads "まじかるハットのぶっとびターボ!大冒険 " with five double-byte spaces appended at the end.
Sega's documents elaborate that you can use ASCII or Shift JIS, but doesn't explicitly mandate that you do[1]. This seems to be the known sole example of deviation, as VIC Tokai's other games use ASCII headers before and after Magical Hat.
