Incorrect or incomplete information on "Oh Shit!"
[edit]
The page for Oh Shit! states that the game was developed for ZX Spectrum and later ported to MSX. I can't find any evidence that it was ever released on ZX Spectrum at all. All the citations refer to the MSX port only. I did some digging and found a game titled "Oh Shit" for ZX Spectrum but that was an unrelated text adventure and not a Pac-Man clone. If there is a ZX Spectrum release of this game, can someone cite information about it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.23.222.227 (talk) 13:30, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
- The game is listed in several ZX Spectrum game databses as having been released in 1984 for ZX Spectrum 48K; there is no source in the article for that. The fact it's not on MobyGames, and that I cannot find a single screenshot, video, ROM, boxart, or any information beyond what is in the Wikipedia article, it's hard to conclusively rule out citogenesis. Also yes there is a separate 1991 ZX Spectrum game also titled "Oh Shit" that is a text-adventure, not that it matters here.. On the balance of things, I lean towards this game not having been released on Spectrum, and all the information online having been falsely propagated from a single original error.

- I've just spent half an hour trying the same. No image, screenshot, ROM or promo material. I agree. Doesn't exist on the Spectrum. - X201 (talk) 16:58, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
- I have removed all mention of a ZX Spectrum release (hopefully I didn't miss any). Ben · Salvidrim! ✉ 15:51, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
