Release context

The documented release is 1999 (the exact day and month are not documented) for Japan on Nintendo 64 add-on. Date precision is preserved exactly: the archive does not invent a day when the source records only a month or year.

Regional differences

This record is scoped to Japan. The linked structured source does not document a separate regional title or package difference, so PLAYBACK does not infer one.

Physical packaging

The physical format is documented as Magnetic disk. The current structured source does not enumerate every insert, manual, sleeve, or bonus item, so no unverified contents are claimed.
