Tempest Posted May 30, 2001 Share Posted May 30, 2001 I was just reading an old interview with Steve Cartwright and I noticed one of the pictures in the article was of an odd looking Pitfall II box(?). It's hard to tell from the picture exactly what it is so it might be a poster or a promo pic of some sort (maybe someone who was at the CGE 2000 could tell me). Either way it's way cooler that the boring box they ended up with. http://www.classicgaming.com/features/arti...te/index3.shtml Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted May 30, 2001 Author Share Posted May 30, 2001 Ok, I figured it out. If you put the mouse cursor over it it says it's a poster. Anyone know where it came from? I remember seeing advertisements in stores for it but never a poster. Was it some sort of send away thing? It's really awesome looking, why didn't they put that on the box instead?

jahfish Posted May 31, 2001 Share Posted May 31, 2001 i found a pitfall box smaller than the regular one, and a little darker green. the size isn't like the regular packages, it smaller, just like the HES vinyl paks. thought you meant this one when you were talking about odd pitfall packages. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Bytchin Posted May 31, 2001 Share Posted May 31, 2001 That poster was probably destined for one of the computer port boxes. Have you noticed that a great number of game developers don't play games? What's with that? Hell, if I'm going to be involved in the gaming industry, I'm going to play the games.
