It's more likely the compression of my original recording or YouTube's re-compressing of the video rather than the actual bios displaying actual errors.
You can't update the firmware on a Sega or Mega CD unit. The different versions of the bios you're seeing are all from different versions of the hardware.
The music and graphics at the startup were the most noticable, everything else just had to do with the newer hardware additions. If you look over the rest of my Sega/Mega CD Bios videos you'll see what I mean.
OMG! Awesome! I want to get a japanese MegaDrive/Mega CD (both model 2) unit now! But wait, is it compatible with a US television set?

Has this version of the BIOS (i.e., the Japanese Mega CD2 BIOS, not the European PAL version) been dumped for use in emulators?

Yes, but only one site on the entire internet has it(that' I've been able to find). I believe it was over at Sonic Cult...

This music should be a reminder of the upcoming transition to Digital TV.

So, how did people who owned a Sega CD go about updating the firmware when a new version became available?

huh, so i suppose there wasn't many significant changes between firmwares?
