Family Computer Magazine's new-release calendar still marked the Famicom Athena as a disk game for early March 1987 in its 6 February issue. From April it listed a cartridge at ¥5,500: early May (3 April), mid-May (17 April), and finally 5 June (15 May). SNK's April advertisement gave early May, ¥5,500 and a 1-megabit ROM.image 145, カレンダーMagazine
Family Computer Magazine's weekly sales chart for 13-19 April 1987, in its 15 May issue, starred the Famicom Nekketsu Kōha Kunio-kun as a game released that week and placed it 5th, with 11 points. That puts the release in the week before the 21 April the ads had planned; no source read gives the day.printed p. 137 (image 136), weekly chart, 4/13-4/19printed p. 137 (image 136), chart footnoteMagazine
