Manufacturing the chips and the carts usually took 2-2.5 months, which would coincide with the date on the cart.
On a disc from Sega (that has copies of final ROMs), I have G-AXE1.BIN dated Nov 22, 1989. While that isn’t October, it’s some kind of after-final build that never got manufactured into a cart (G-AXE had REV 00 and REV 01 in cart form). Both of the released revisions are from October.
Hope that helps.

I have an earlier release of that Nintendo Laserdisc. I ripped the video and it was shown at CGE 2004. Pretty neat, let me tell you.
The date on the Golden Axe suggests it’s either final or very close. I’ve got the final date somewhere, I could look it up if anyone is interested.
digital press lists it a 12-23-89
That is the release date, not final build date.
