Summary	05828: spnchout, spnchouta, spnchoutj: Game automatically resets at KO Time Best 3/Hit Average screen during attract mode.
Description	As soon as the screen showing the best 3 KO times for each of the opponents on the upper screen and the top 5 hit averages on the lower screen appears, the game resets on its own.
Steps To Reproduce	Let the attract mode run and wait until the KO Time Best 3/Hit Average screen appears, or press "Right Blow" during the attract mode to go directly there. This screen will show for about a second, then the game will reset.
