[edit] Looking for: game credits, month and day of North American release date, and the MSX version's cover/box

OK, if anyone can help me find a few things, this article is in bad need of them. The only designer I know is Uematsu; that's because his site lists King's Knight as part of his production credits. As for the North American release date, I only know that it's 1989 - I have the game's booklet, but it makes no mention of the release date (not suprising, but neither does it list production credits unfortunately). Finally, I want to set up a new infobox for the MSX version - therefore, we need an image of the MSX game and its box. I believe it warrants its own infobox (much like the MSX version of Final Fantasy I has its own infobox), because of the big differences between the MSX version and NES version. I've checked a few more screenshots of the MSX game, and it looks like there are different monster designs as well. I'll try playing through the MSX game via emulator, but it's extremely difficult (the game is difficult enough as it is, but the MSX's inability to vertically scroll the game creates huge "lag" and it's almost impossible to progress). Anyways, if anyone could help with this stuff, that'd be great! Thanks,

[edit] Good Article

According to Wikipedia:What is a good article?, this article is somewhat brief and concise, but is rational in regards to the source material and its time of creation. It fullfils numerous guidelines raised in the policy, such as it has compelling prose, and is readily comprehensible to a non-specialist reader, being well written, and adhered to a neutral point of view. The image gallery is still a gray area amoung some contributors, although I believe it is nelligiable to the source content and is presented in a plausible manner. The game may be too obsure to attain featured article status, though. -ZeroTalk 15:41, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Delisted GA

I delisted the GA for several reasons

  1. Images need fair use rationale, and several especially the small character images looks like it's only used for decereation and violates WP:FU.
  2. Few refs, one of them from the Instruction Manual which is not a valid source
  3. Nothing on crtiticsm of the game
