Went to Activision to see the Super Nintendo version of Prince. Wow! It was like a brand new game. For the first time I felt firsthand what it’s really like to play Prince of Persia, when you’re not the author and don’t already know by rote what’s lurking around every corner.
Lunch with Dominique. His boss and another guy pressed me really hard – they’re eager to acquire the U.S. and European rights to Super NES Prince and they hoped I could help swing their case with Broderbund. They said they’d guarantee 150,000 units. Not Bad!
Jamil called to say: “Where were you Saturday night? It was great… I got home six pm Sunday.”
Went for a drink with Patrick.
“When you go back to the U.S.,” he said, “you’re gonna be happy. It may take a while. It may take six months. You’ll be speaking the good French, you’ll know all the names of the streets and where is the Louvre exactly, and you’re gonna be really happy to leave.”
