No release date; could it mean we're in for a longer wait than expected?

Speaking of release dates... FF1 was released on the Nintendo in 1990, not 1987. The release date for the Famicom was 1987, but that was Japan only.

I consider the release date being where it first got Launched at. So imho Lurex is correct. However, it can go both ways .
