History

Released
c. 1988-1990
Group
Legend (LGD) — New Zealand

This crack intro was produced by Legend, a New Zealand-based import and swapping group — distinct from the better-known Belgian cracking group of the same name. Operating under the abbreviation LGD and the motto "Lightyears Ahead," the group was headquartered at P.O. Box 5180, Wellesley Street, Auckland. CSDb lists five members — BamBam, Cavalier, Cosmac, Express, and Noddy — all serving as importers or swappers, reflecting the group's role in bringing software to the isolated New Zealand scene. The group produced 15 releases between 1988 and 1990, primarily game cracks and imports. As an import group from the geographically remote Antipodes, Legend (NZ) represents one of the few documented C64 operations from New Zealand, where postal mail exchanges were the primary means of software distribution in the pre-internet era. The specific credits for code and music in this intro remain unidentified.
