I have the initial release of Desert Falcon, at least I think it's the initial release, with the year 1987 on the back side of the box. It's the PAL release (cart has a "P" on the label and it has an English and a German manual). But the box says "North American and other NTSC TV sets only" on the back side.

Did all PAL releases from 1987 Desert Falcon have the NTSC info on the back side of the box or is it just mine (would mean that I have a "wrong" box).

I have also a 1988 PAL release of Desert Falcon (re-release, going to sell that), that doesn't have the NTSC info on the back side of the box.

Maybe some of you guys and girls have the 1987 PAL release of Desert Falcon boxed in your collections and would be so kind to tell me if your boxes have the NTSC info as well?

Many thanks in advance! thumbup

Weird! Your cart should show a "P". Could it be you have an NTSC release (despite the multilingual box)?

Maybe in 1987 they didn't care anymore at Atari and just put stuff together that was lying around … rolleyes

Info from more people welcome, wondering which other combinations of carts, manuals and boxes we find mrgreen
