There are some games that can't be detected due to how they do Widescreen (they don't change the viewport or whatever that the heuristic uses.)
We can have someone look into it, but there's not much hope for it unless they can find a way to detect it.
Maybe a fifolog of the game switching from 4:3 to 16:9 would help in that regard.

I have recorded a 10 frame fifolog changing the aspect ratio from 4:3 to 16:9.
