There is a bit of a confusion about the official version of "Snoopy". (That is why I DID mentioned this game, but waited to contribute this game) WHY? You may ask...well...although, there are some mention about it, there are no OFFICIAL covers or tapes to be found anywhere. (I may overlooked them or it is a case of bad memory) On the other hand, "Johnny" does as you can see here;

https://www.c64-wiki.com/wiki/File:Snoopy(Jonny)Cover.jpg or http://www.everygamegoing.com/egg/landingItem/index/machine_type_group_default_folder/c64/publisher_folder/radarsoft/format_folder/tapes/item_title/Johnny/

Yes, the cover has TWO names on it; "Johnny" AND "Bango". Once again, even though there are Screenshots of the French version; https://ibb.co/kHpGjWp I cannot seem to find its cover and/or tape.

Curiously enough, you also have this; https://ibb.co/xLCyFnW

There are several possibilities;

1) They actually DID published "Snoopy", but because of a copyright infringement, they completely changed the ingame title, appearance of the character (https://ibb.co/xLCyFnW) AND its cover to Johnny.

2) The Cover name IS "Johnny", but the game itself called "Snoopy".

3) The cover AND ingame title (https://ibb.co/xLCyFnW) actually IS "Johnny", "Snoopy" is a crack.

4) This may not be official; https://ibb.co/xLCyFnW

What do you think?

PS: Sorry if I am a bit unclear in this, but I really was not sure how to do this.

bump di bump (I am not sure how the bump rule is done here. However, we DO want to have all things here accurate, right?)
