Third-party T-series codes

Sega uses T-series codes to identify officially licensed third party developers. ROM headers of games developed by a third party (except those that Sega contracts out, such as Nextech) usually contain a field stating the T-series code. For example, the sixteen bytes at offset $110 (hex) of Sega Mega Drive game ROMs would usually look like one of

(C)SEGA year.mon
(C)T-xx year.mon
(C)T-xxxyear.mon
(C)Txxx year.mon

Not all third party developers/publishers have to follow these rules; for example, Psygnosis, Kaneko, Taito, and Treco have placed their company name in the field on several occasions.
