That game[edit]

Being a milestone of platforming games, this deserves an article in my opinion. --Artman40 (talk) 00:50, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Japanese release date[edit]

This can't be right, or this game would predate Donkey Kong. Sarcophagocyte (talk) 17:28, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it seems it indeed isn't right. After briefly looking through history, I found that THIS is the user responsible for the unsourced edit - who JUST HAPPENS to be a well known vandal engaging in disruptive editing, including - guess what? Changing dates without any source. Considering that every single source I found cites either the December 1981 date (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2121294/, https://www.giantbomb.com/jump-bug/3030-48136/) I'm removing the June date until anyone else finds any source for it.
