Common name locations

To do: * See if there are common locations for specific game engines (unity, gamemaker, unreal etc) Add potential location: GameCube/Wii (or just one of them?) "[game] disc has been removed" string. Not 100% sure if this string is even used in games, but it does appear in all/many.
