in reply to Break my regex, please
You are using literal spaces to match literal spaces. Adding/removing a single extra space will destroy the match, as will the presence of extra parentheses These are a few of the things that break your regex:
(KONAMI ORIGINAL) END OF THE CENTURY <BASIC> / NO.9 (KONAMI ORIGINAL) END OF THE CENTURY <BASIC>/ NO.9 (KONAMI ORIGINAL) END OF THE CENTURY<BASIC> / NO.9 (KONAMI ORIGINAL)END OF THE CENTURY <BASIC> / NO.9 (KONAMI ORIGINAL (no 9) ) END OF THE CENTURY <BASIC> / NO.9
using \s+ where one or more spaces is likely and \s* where 0 or more are OK is better if humans are involved in the typing!
