Thanks. I can move them to the Need a Month section of 1983.

I just want to say, HOLY MOTHER OF MAYHEM! What the static 1983?!

I think Guardian by Apollo should be in the November section of 1982, I don't know if I have enough to change the releases date, but I'll bring it up anyway since I finally found the interview here. I remembered reading this one a few years back, but hesitated talking about it as its gone from the original site. Now, according to this interview with programmer Larry Martin, Guardian was released for production just before Apollo was shut down by its creditors, however I get the impression none were sold until the bankruptcy court released them:

According to this brief article in Billboard, the bankruptcy was declared in November of 1982, ergo the game cartridges were not released until then. https://books.google.com/books?id=WiQEAAAAMBAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=Billboard+December+4,+1982&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CB0Q6AEwAGoVChMItpiEsY_dxgIVwy2ICh1VggdV#v=onepage&q=apollo&f=false

 

Like I said, I don't know if that's enough to change the release, but I thought I'd mention it anyway and see what other's thoughts are.
