As such, they joined the race with [[Atari]], and later [[ColecoVision|Coleco]], to acquire the home conversion rights to several popular arcade hits. Along with [[Q*Bert]] and [[Popeye]], they scored the rights to release Q*Bert for home systems and computers. In an ironic twist, they only acquired the rights to publish cartridges, and as such, [[Sierra Entertainment]] bought the rights to publish the game on cassette and diskette, providing some systems with two official conversions of the game.
