Mega Drive version

The first version of the game (00) has different player names than later revisions, being more similar to real-world players (loosely based on those appearing at the 1986 Mexico World Cup). It can be safely assumed Sega were keen to change the names as it lacked an official license from any of football's governing bodies.

Algeria and Morocco have the same lineup across all versions of the game.

Despite the box claiming the IBM PC version of World Championship Soccer is only compatible with EGA graphics cards, this is not strictly true. If the user has a VGA card, the game will still run in 16 colours (as there are no VGA-specific graphics in-game), but it will choose a slightly more appropriate palette from the 256 colours available in the standard.

While the difference would be subtle on many CRT displays of the time, it can allow users to see what is going on more clearly. It also allows teams to play in different colours - in EGA mode player 1 is always red and player 2 is always blue.
