Revision as of 16:09, 1 November 2019

Three revisions *and* a prototype?

I was under the impression that Rev. A *was* the known prototype version. The page here says there's A, B, and C, plus a prototype. MAME lists two versions: sonicp ("Prototype", probably the same as Rev. A) and sonic (Rev. C).

Revision A is the prototype version. I'm not sure why it's called that, although MAME did support the prototype many years before the final, which makes me guess that they thought the prototype was the final. At least at the beginning.
