The rapid growth of the third-party game industry was easily illustrated by the number of vendors present at the semi-annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES). According to Crane, the number of third-party developers jumped from 3 to 30 between two consecutive events. At the Summer 1982 CES, there were 17 companies, including MCA Inc., and Fox Video Games announcing a combined 90 new Atari games. By 1983, an estimated 100 companies were attempting to leverage the CES into a foothold in the market. "AtariAge" documented 158 different vendors that had developed for the Atari VCS. In June of 1982, the Atari games on the market numbered just 100. By December, that number grew to over 400.
