May 1987 Issue Of Computer Entertainer
Next month is the Summer CES and we’re hearing that Nintendo will have its largest booth yet! As one would expect, it’s the calm before the storm and Computer Entertainer lays low with Nintendo news and focuses on reviewing a few more games. They do let loose that Taito and Tecmo have jumped onboard the third party licensee bandwagon and will be releasing games for the NES this year. We expect those games to be shown off next month!

Computer Entertainer Review Guidelines:
THE RATING SYSTEM:
4 SYMBOLS = EXCELLENT
3 SYMBOLS = GOOD
2 SYMBOLS = FAIR
1 SYMBOL = POOR
♦ = ENTERTAINMENT PROGRAMS (1st set of diamonds = quality of graphics; 2nd set = quality of game play and entertainment value)
Any program for a given system is compared only to other programs for the same system. In other words, all C64-compatibles are judged separately from Apple. Some programs, which are virtually identical for multiple systems, will be so noted. When we review software for more than one system, we will note differences and which system we reviewed.
