About

Two sets of announcements that appear to have come to nothing.

In 1985 Einstein User reported that Einsoft had "signed" Ghostbusters and Decathlon. A signing is not a shipment, and neither has ever been seen.

In September 1986 the UK Einstein User Group listed titles "currently being converted":

  • Infiltrator
  • Flight Deck
  • Cauldron II, printed as "Couldron II"
  • Fairlight
  • Beach-Head II
  • "Nightlaw", as printed

None of these six has turned up either. The other titles in the same lists, such as Airwolf, Beach-Head, Impossible Mission and Bruce Lee, did appear and are in this library or on this wanted list already.

Announced Only

Conversions were abandoned all the time, and a magazine announcement is evidence of intent rather than of a finished product. But conversions were also sometimes completed and then shelved, and those discs do occasionally survive in the hands of whoever wrote them.

Can You Help?

If you worked on Einstein conversions in the 1980s, or you have a disc of any of these, please get in touch. An unreleased conversion would be among the most interesting things anyone could send us.

We don't have a copy of this one yet. If you've got it, we'd love to add it to the archive.
