Also, usagi is not fixed. It requires a Mahjong control panel to operate test mode, M=Up L=Down Chi=Left Reach=Right Ron=select if you need the info. but I'm sure you don't have a Mahjong panel anyway. So, should this be reopened just for usagi or left as is?

Of course, it's debatable if it's a real 'factory reset' card, as the factory might not have a save folder on it at all, or it might not occupy the same blocks on the card etc. but it would be 'clean'.
