Things I learned at the CGE convention.

At the CGE convention I learned some interesting things.

First from talking to David Crane

There were over 1 million Pitfall II's produced

There were 500,000 to 1 Million Keystone Kapers produced.

There were only 100,000 Crackpots Produced.

From Todd Rogers who worked with Imagic promoting the Atlantis contest.

He said from what he remembers he was pretty sure only 25 Atlantis II carts were made with a slight chance that there was 50.

What DreamTR,Ianoid,CPUWIZ, Deusexmachina, and Wonder007 look and sound like.

From Gary Kitchen.

He did not program Air Raid.

Thats about it. I definetly had a blast and was thankful I came

Oh, another thing that I learned. I now know for a fact that Joe Cody did not by out any of Jerry Greiner's personal collection. He only bought out the site and what was being sold at the time. And maybe some interesting info for Wonder007. Jerry Greiner has over 200 prototypes. Also, I found out from David Crane that Activision actually gave out a Gold Record for programmers that sold 500,000 games and they gave out Platnium one if the programmer was able to go over the Million mark.
