These "French" manuals

are they yours or did you find them?

Because there is a set of scans out there that dropped all the non-French pages. That is to say, they were "European" manuals with most of the pages missing.

Just want to check - I genuinely don't know if Sega started producing single-language manuals for some Mega Drive games -Black Squirrel (talk) 11:30, 9 February 2017 (CST)

I found them...and i think they are genuine french manuals,the pages are corretly numbered...look for example at the back of the manual for Micro Machines 2 Turbo Tournament...--Asagoth (talk) 12:39, 9 February 2017 (CST)

Oh some of them definitely are - localisation was more common towards the mid-90s, I'm just curious about the older games like Dick Tracy and Gain Ground. No worries -Black Squirrel (talk) 13:17, 9 February 2017 (CST)

 It's a common thing in some european countries like France and Germany ... i have more of these to upload...--Asagoth (talk) 13:30, 9 February 2017 (CST)

Some of them are probably fake. Just look at the part numbers on the back covers: [1] [2]. Also, the paragraph spacing is inconsistent and the number of pages should even. - Hivebrain (talk) 19:04, 9 February 2017 (CST)

 I found them on a french site... scanned Mega Drive manuals are not easy to find...and yes i know that some of them are European Multilingual manuals...some are genuine like the World Cup USA 94 manual or Micromachines 2... i have more to upload...--Asagoth (talk) 03:41, 10 February 2017 (CST)

PT MD codes

Looks like you can just add releases to games with md_date_pt= and md_code_pt=. - Hivebrain (talk) 16:32, 16 August 2017 (CDT)

Oh... ok sorry... thank you anyway...--Asagoth (talk) 16:35, 16 August 2017 (CDT)

watch out

File:MD UK TVAdvert CyberRazorCut 2.mp4 - got a duplicate

though I don't blame you for missing it - we've not been very good at organising adverts -Black Squirrel (talk) 16:06, 27 December 2017 (CST)

OK then... i'll pay attention next time...--Asagoth (talk) 16:09, 27 December 2017 (CST)

Might be easier to mirror full issues on Retro CDN - that's where those Cash Box scans probably came from originally (I nabbed most of them from archive.org). -Black Squirrel (talk) 14:55, 11 November 2018 (CST)

But they have watermarks... there's some exceptions... but ...--Asagoth (talk) 14:59, 11 November 2018 (CST)

I wouldn't worry too much in this case - they're awful scans but it's extremely unlikely we'll get better ones any time soon. - your call -Black Squirrel (talk) 15:09, 11 November 2018 (CST)

Really!? ... Now things just got more fun... you don't even need to ask twice...--Asagoth (talk) 15:16, 11 November 2018 (CST)
