The Washington Post wrote:

However, the award winning biopic “My Left Foot” released in 1989, starring Daniel Day-Lewis and directed by Jim Sheridan, earned almost $15 million at the box office, an “ironic triumph for an Irish film industry which had seemed crushed and beaten” according to O’Brien. And the release of “Empire of Sin” may just be the “My Left Foot” moment for the Irish games sector.


This is a bad take. Who crushed and beat the Irish game industry? What?

Atari made cabinets in the 80s in Ireland for distribution throughout Europe. They look nice. I had an Irish Centipede cab, I miss it. No huge differences or anything. I can't remember the differences. It was different maybe somehow.
