− | =Europe=
| + | The list of '''Mega Drive consoles in Europe''' is divided into four, as defined in [[Sega Retro:Regions of the world]]: |
− | ==Mega Drive==
| |
− | The original Mega Drive package for Europe, debuting in 1990. It shipped with the earlier style European gamepad and with no pack-in games. In fact, it's the only version of the console not to have any game screenshots on its box, presumably because not many had been released by this point. | |

− | ==Mega Drive (with ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' (One control pad))==
| |
− | Oddly the above model was replaced with this cut-down version, that lacked the extra control pad. Rather than produce a brand new box, Sega simply put a sticker over the image.
