Difference between revisions of "Mega Drive consoles in Australasia"

Revision as of 12:15, 27 June 2023

This short article is in need of work. You can help Sega Retro by adding to it.

During the era of the Sega Mega Drive, Australia were given their own supply of video games through OziSoft. Throughout Australia's modern video game history, the country has been given the same content as Europe, albeit often altered to fit the requirements of the OFLC. In the case of the Mega Drive, releases are split between those manufactured by Ozisoft and those imported from Europe. For this reason we cannot be entirely sure how many bundles and models were released in the country.

Note: Bundles may be missing components such as manuals, promotional flyers and leads. Information may be incorrect at this stage, and the list is very much incomplete.
