maybe it's a punch card ..... like was mentioned before
maybe if you hold it over a text ( don't know wat text yet ) and delete the white stuff
maybe you can see a word or more through those holes ..... just a thought
kind of like in the movie CON AIR

Yeah but it's a connection, however slim...
Its just that it has to do with the code, computers and asian things which drew my atention to it...

yeah, i'm not shooting it down:)
if the code is unique to the product (like, it appears elsewhere with the same code), then we might well have something

the series of little white rectangles reminded me of a player piano roll of music. i've found a site with some software (mk3a) that allows you to scan a series of holes and convert it into a midi file.

i don't have a scanner but if someone feels like giving it a go it may prove fruitful

that's where i said it looked like a punchcard to me, the old-skool method of programming.
we've had Missile Command, Joe Decuir, Margie's Candies (famous for being 80 years old, or something), no idea where Angelina Jolie comes into it, but still.. a lot of 'retro' links

Not sure of the relevance, but it appears that November 27th, 1998 was the Dreamcast launch day in Japan. I'm seeing if this has any sort of connection, besides the obvious gaming connection of a system's launch.
