Programmers-3

Wasn't Programmers-3 the same group who later started Compile? The games that Programmers-3 wrote look like predecessors to Compile games, see for e.g. my comment at Exa Innova. Does anybody have more information about this?

check what there reads in E.I.´s comments now... it surely is underrated game, there was just one vote, and it was "1". I gave it eight, but it´s still just "3.33"... 5:oS Argh! I guess people try and play it for just few scenes of the first stage and that´s it and then they vote "1". (as they cannot give "0". 5:oO another Argh!

To answer your question in the comments: no I did not put that screenshot there. I have added the screenshot which is more known. I guess Programmers-3 programmed the game in 1983 and led it be distributed by Sony (which was a distributer for a lot of small software house back in the early 1980s, like Konami for e.g.). Somewhere along the line Programmers-3 became Compile, I guess. In 1988 Compile re-released Exa Innova under their own/new name. By the way, A.E. was also made by Programmers-3.
