Adam Huemer Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 a) What was the relation between Atari and Sears on Star Raiders? Did they co-release it, did Sears re-release, import or what did they do? b) Was Burger Time VCS 2600 on sale in the shops for the first time in 1982 or 1983?

+Random Terrain Posted August 27, 2001 Share Posted August 27, 2001 I don't know much about "a" but the following web site shows that BurgerTime was released in 1983. http://www.makingit.com/bluesky/games/cred...ts/atari1.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they co-release it, did Sears re-release, import or what did they do? I assume that Sears released Star Raiders around the same time that Atari did. I don't know the details of Sears' arrangement with Atari, but I would guess that the Sears version of Atari games came out simultaneously with the Atari titles. Atari manufactured these games for Sears, so I imagine they'd do a run of carts with the Atari labels and then do a batch with the Sears labels. Perhaps the Atari carts were available a bit earlier because of this, but probably not by much. Does anyone have more information on the Atari-Sears relationship? ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
