Notes[]
- This is the one of two games to feature the pink jacket. Indeed The Legend of The Gold of Babylon (MSX game) instead featured the red jacket for unknown reasons. The other game was Sage of the Pyramid in which that was an unlockable after completing the game.
- This was the first console Lupin the Third game.
- The working title was "Escape from Barcelona Cave Strategy" however the final game just settled for "Lupin III" instead. The game was still marketed with the working title on Japanese flyers advertising the console.[2]
- While it was advertised to be released in France alongside the other Super Cassette Vision games, it is currently unknown whether it was actually released due to legal concerns over the Lupin name.
