Release and collector context

Source-linked facts

Mega Drive Model 1 — PAL is a documented regional model of the Mega Drive / Genesis hardware family. The source-linked record places this exact physical configuration in Europe / Australia in 1990 (the exact day and month are not documented). It remains a separate collector item because its model, color, regional presentation, or bundled configuration differs from the parent hardware record.

Research status
Structured source record
01

Release context

The documented release is 1990 (the exact day and month are not documented) for Europe / Australia on Mega Drive / Genesis. Date precision is preserved exactly: the archive does not invent a day when the source records only a month or year.

02

Regional differences

This record is scoped to Europe / Australia. 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 Regional model. The current structured source does not enumerate every insert, manual, sleeve, or bonus item, so no unverified contents are claimed.

04

Editions and revisions

This record represents a regional model within the Mega Drive / Genesis family, not a separate console generation.
