I've still got three magazines (each mailed a month apart) in transit that are now months late!!!!! That's if they'll turn up at all.

Yeah, everything is super slow at Post Canada We didn't want to piss people off, since I'm also waiting for packages for quite some time now and I know how much time it can takes to receive a package Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phattyboombatty Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) Very cool! I had no idea Sydney’s HQ was here in San Diego. That’s two 1980s game developers with SD headquarters (the other being Steven Stack of Red Sea Crossing [Atari]). Interestingly, each developer had at least one unpublished game. I only wish there were some remnants of their facilities or the stock, but sadly these are just spaces occupied by different tenants now. Edit: I see that it was Dataproducts, Inc. as the [presumed] developer. Still cool! Edited July 20, 2020 by phattyboombatty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More notably, Sega's North American operations were in San Diego for several years after they purchased Gremlin Industries. Many early Sega coin-op and consumer games were developed there. http://gdri.smspower.org/wiki/index.php/Sega_Electronics On 7/20/2020 at 12:23 AM, phattyboombatty said: Edit: I see that it was Dataproducts, Inc. as the [presumed] developer. Still cool! Most if not all of Sydney's ColecoVision games (likely including Energy Quiz) were developed by Artech in Ottawa, ON. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubledown Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Looking at the game-play video (and reading the game-play description), can anybody explain to me why the word "QUIZ" is in the title? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
