=== Name change === The ''Defender II'' name was used in some home releases, due to legal issues (according to the bonus material for ''[[Midway Arcade Treasures]]'', Williams wanted to "make sure they could own the trademark" on the ''Defender'' name). The name ''Defender II'' has been used on many home ports and game compilation appearances, but not in arcades. The [[Atari 2600]] port was originally sold as ''Stargate'', but was renamed to ''Defender II'' for a later re-release.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.atariage.com/software_page.php?SoftwareLabelID=130|title=AtariAge - Atari 2600 - Defender II (Atari)|website=www.atariage.com}}</ref> The Amiga and Atari ST ports were developed by [[Jeff Minter]] and includes ''Defender'', ''Stargate'' and ''Defender II''.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Campbell |first=Colin |date=January 1991 |title=Defender II |url=https://amr.abime.net/review_825 |journal=Amiga Format |issue=18 |pages=58}}</ref>
