[BUG]: Japanese Virtua Cop Re-Birth (SLPM-62205) hits a completely different location from where I aim #15015

Describe the Bug

In the Japanese version of Virtua Cop Re-Birth (SLPM-62205), shots in gameplay consistently hit a completely different location from where the GunCon 2 is aimed.

During the calibration screen at the start of the game, the shot location matches the aiming position correctly. However, once gameplay begins, shots consistently hit the center of the screen regardless of where I aim.

The same issue occurs on the stage selection screen: shots always hit the center of the screen instead of the location being aimed at.

Interestingly, after repeatedly pulling the trigger, a shot will occasionally hit the location I am actually aiming at, but this happens only rarely.

I have confirmed that this issue does not occur in the European version (SLES-51229 / Virtua Cop Re-Birth Elite Edition) under the same setup.

The issue appears to be specific to the Japanese version (SLPM-62205).

    Likely case this game needs its own lightgun calibration data to be added.
