Interesting video. Do you have a source for the 1990 release date for the Amiga version? The reviews seems to indicate that it wasn's shipped before 1991.

Numerous magazine reviews showed it as being released in the fall of 1990. The advertisement for the game also shows a 1990 copyright date.The title screen of the Amiga version also shows 1990.

None of this means anything though

I checked yesterday again if the ST version might have been released before, but also on Atari Mania the two reviews they have listed are from March 1991. AMR has one review from 1990, but that's actually for Singe's Castle which Datormagazin just labelled 'Dragon's Lair II'. Maybe some American publication tested it before?

I Can recall getting it for Christmas in 1990 and I live in the USA. I know it was Christmas of 1990 because after we opened presents we want to see home alone.
