Nigel Mansell's World Championship
Just discovered on Twitter that the SNES version was the lead version by Richie Brannan and other ports were based on that, not the other way around.
Confusion probably stems as just like with Turrican 3, the Amiga version came out first, which in this instance was late 1992, whilst SNES was 1993. So depending on what you claim as ‘Amiga Original’ released first or programmed first on HOL? |

The friendly moustache should belong to the Amiga. |

maybe the error is that the SNES Japan version called "Nigel Mansell F-1 Challenge" has been released in 1992.
USA version, july 1993 and European version in December 1993 |

Dates on game title screens are just when it was programmed not the date of release. The earliest SNES release was the Japanese version which came out on 19/03/93, 4-5 months after the Amiga OCS release.

Or the copyright date (which is often not the same as the release date). Plus I'm not even sure that the ad shows the title screen of the released game (Moby has a different screenshot).

Looking at the video, it’s not a title screen with the date anyway, just some title still for the video.
