The use of the present perfect has more to do with our present perspective on the event rather than on the actual time at which it took place.
Present Perfect or Simple Past?
The simple past tense occurs with specific past-time adverbials. The core meaning of the past tense is remoteness. The use of specific past-time adverbials (e.g., yesterday, last year, 1990) makes the past tense obligatory. The use of certain more general temporal adverbials is commonly associated with the perfect (e.g., already, since, yet).
