[net.games.video] A note or two on Dragon's Lair

adb@houxk.UUCP (08/02/83)

Dragon's Lair was indeed animated by the people who did "The Secret of
NIMH," in conjunction with two other groups (one a Silicon Valley computer
organization and the other a game distributor.  A total win lasts 8
minutes, and the total on the disk is 22 minutes.4  Alas, I forget
the correct figures, but they play on making a lot of money, since the
machine costs about $4,000 and they expect to sell them in the ten
thousand range (if anyone has a copy of the July 31 Long Island Newsday,
you can correct my numbers.)  Also, a number of other companies are
preparing similar games (including George Lucas).
	
	Sorry about the muddled figures, I didn't know the info
	would come in handy.
