CHRISTMAS SOFTWARE IDEAS

7TH GUEST

One of the most significant multimedia software titles to hit the
industry will soon be on Radio Shack shelves.  It is hailed as
"the new standard of Multimedia Entertainment." Of course we are
referring to The 7th Guest (25-1847) by Virgin Games.  This
MPC/CD-ROM disc features a record-setting thirty-six minutes of
full motion video and dialog plus an outstanding audio soundtrack.

Set in an eerily vacant toymaker's mansion atop a remote hill,
The 7th Guest features spirits which "morph" (like in the movies
"Terminator 2" and "Star Trek 6").


BUNDLES, BUNDLES, BUNDLES

Here are just a few of the outstanding, value-added,
sizzling-hot, new software titles you will find on your Radio
Shack store shelves soon.  This impossible to beat lineup of
software titles and added value bundles is just in time for the
Christmas.

Modem/Game Bundle

We have grouped two of the industry's top selling titles --
Command HQ and Global Conquest from Microprose.  And... to make
things even more exciting, we have added a 2400 bps modem,
America-Online, Sierra Gaming Network, CompuServe and Dow
Jones/Genie to create the ultimate modem solution.  This modem/
game bundle (25-1844) gives you a modem, bulletin board services,
and two games.

Racing Bundle

The "Racing Bundle" (25-1933) may prove to be the most exciting
and in-demand bundle of the year.  It features a steering wheel
(just like the ones found at any arcade), and comes with
Accolade's Grand Prix Unlimited.  The wheel clamps onto the edge
of any desk.  Just strap the mouse into the steering wheel, load
the software, and drive to victory.  This software offers
adjustable lane control so beginners or seasoned racing/game
veterans can play.  This bundle can be found only at Radio Shack
during the holiday season.

Three Hot, Hot, Hot Bundles

The Family Game Pak bundle (25-1930) unites three great software
game titles Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Days of Thunder,
and Hoyle Book of Games for hours of family fun.

The Early Years bundle (25-1932) offers children ages 4 and up
the Berenstein Bears Learn about Counting, Stickybear
Spellgrabber, and Davidson's Reading and Me.

The Triple Challenge bundle (25-1931) joins three giant software
titles F-15 Strike Eagle by Microprose, DUNE by Virgin Games, and
King's Quest 1 by Sierra.  This is truly a game player's triple
treat.

All three bundles come in striking boxes with convenient handles
for carrying.
