No Intro: Super Volley Ball (USA)

Volleyball is one word.

It was chosen so in accordance to the Japanese version, and because every version of the in-game title screen has Volley Ball. The capitalization doesn't give hints either (title is in all-caps), so I prefer to call them "2 words compressed into one for lack of space".

Moreover there's another Genesis version of the cover (supposed to be Canadian) that has Volley Ball too, look in Guardiana. So consistency with the convention is saved too ;-)

Hmm, but doesn't the Japanese box use a lowercase 'b', albeit with a space?
The title image on GameFAQs also uses "Volleyball":

Either way, I won't argue if it's intentional :)
