    Hi !

    As you may know, the 32X had three special packs releases in Europe:
    The Motocross championship pack
    The Virtua fighter pack
    The Knuckles Chaotix pack

    I own the first two but my motocross pack is in poor condition so am still looking for one.
    Found this one on ebay:

    That made me realise a "small" detail: the pack is in spanish.
    Checking back mine, it's in French/dutch (released in France, Belgium and Holland)
    And my virtua fighter pack is... in English.

    Two questions: do you know if those packs also exist in other european versions ? (most possible one is German, but italian, swedish or any other could exist ???)
    Anyone here have one of those packs and could check in which language it is ?

    Best regards

    I'm fairly sure there were more than just three special boxes released across Europe... I seem to recall Doom and Virtua Racing Deluxe being issued as pack-in titles for a while, plus we can't forget the controversial "£40" voucher included with certain systems as part of another promotion that actually turned out to be four £10 vouchers you could only use on separate games - I remember quite a few magazines (along with the GamesMaster television show!) covering this particular misleading deal from around the 1995 Christmas shopping period.

    £50 off. I still have mine.

    I don't remember Doom or Virtua Racing bundles, at least not in the UK. I have seen a regular one with some blurb about being Portuguese on it, and of course the regular and £50 offer UK ones.
