- This isn't wrong. But we might have to come up with a better solution to the idea of "multi-platform" releases - Fahrenheit is MCD/MCD32X, and there's a couple of Amiga/DOS or Amiga/ST disks that we're maybe not catering for properly.

In the UK at least, it wasn't uncommon to see a ZX Spectrum version of a game on one side of a cassette, and the Amstrad CPC version on the other - I wouldn't be at all surprised if that wasn't happening in Japan. -Black Squirrel (talk) 14:21, 27 May 2019 (EDT)
