I was actually wondering how to do this;

1) Originally, the game was called Kick, but because of Pac-Man it was changed into Kick-man and all. (https://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=8298 and https://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=8294#ytplayer) I should put this in trivia, right?

2) There are two different way how the games was spelled;

a) The Arcade version was spelled as Kick-man. https://flyers.arcade-museum.com/?page=flyer&db=videodb&id=2766&image=3

b) The version for the C64 was Kickman.

Should I put Kick-man in Alternate Titles or is the arcade version in favour and should the title of the game be changed into Kick-man (or is it Kick-Man?)

PS; Sorry, if I am a bit unclear. I do not feel that good at the moment.

The title of the earliest release in the English-speaking countries, assuming the title is in English language itself, prevails. So which one was the very first release? Kick? If so, submit it as a title correction stating your reasoning. Other titles go to alternative titles section.
