Display mode

Display mode refers to the system of system encoding used on televisions and display systems. In North America and Japan, for example, NTSC is used (in box arts on later consoles, the North American variant is referred to as NTSC-U/C, the U/C meaning United States and Canada, while Japan is indicated by NTSC-J).

Europe and Australia use PAL, while other areas of the world may use either, or they may use SECAM.
