Demo Not For Resale Electronic Arts Discs

[krslam]

Got these mixed in with a large lot of Atari computer stuff. Just the disks, no manuals/packaging. I was unaware that NFR software existed in the 8-bit era (excluding store demos and the like). I'm just looking for more info on them, not trolling for offers to sell.

wow, nice set

i guess these are full versions? strange that you simply put a NFR sticker on but you might copy it anyway... well... nothing changed even in 2011...

The 2 games seem to be full versions, but I haven't played them thru. Word Flyer keeps looping back to the splash screen, don't know if the disk is defective or if this NFR version isn't complete.

They all ought to be full versions. The local EA distributor would have handed them out to the stores he/she serviced. They are FPP (full package product) with the 'not for resale' label on the box and the disk.

You'll also find a lot of SSI games like this as SSI was distributed by EA around the same time they did this.
