Structured source record

Release context

02

Regional differences

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

03

Physical packaging

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