494.0. "Pools of Radiance" by SANFAN::GRANT_JO (Don't Say 'Shank') Mon Jul 30 1990 12:28

    One of the guys at the local Nintendo store mentioned that
    the AD&D game "Pools of Radiance" would soon be in the
    stores, having been ported from the pc versions.
    
    Anyone seen it yet?  I've hungrily looked at the wide
    array of pc games, including the AD&D series at a
    local software store, and frankly this series looks
    terrific.  
    
    Input?

    If this game is completely translated from the PC, then it will be a
    very good one for adventure lovers.  I have played (and beaten) Pool of
    Radiance for the PC as well as other AD&D games (Curse of the Azure
    Bonds, Riders of Krynn) and they are involved and unpredictable as far
    as the events that take place.  They also faithfully follow the AD&D
    rules and format that other games try to copy, but can not duplicate
    because of copyright stuff...
    
    Hopefully, it will be worth the wait.  My only concern is the size of
    the game may cause them to take short cuts... Hopefully not to the
    detrement of the game...
