Yep, through 1990. I didn't find any sales from the 1989 sales folder or earlier. Based on sales figures on systems and games, 1990 was the worst year in sales.

There are more than 384 copies, but they were sold new after 1990. There has to over 1,000 copies sold as a whole, but Atari stopped recording USA sales in a year after 1990.

Remember that stores and catalogs has Atari 7800 games on clearance back in the early 1990's. It is possible later 7800 titles didn't make is in some stores, or they sold on clearance after 1990.

I saw Big lots selling Ninja Golf new back in the mid 1990's. There was a good amount of Atari 7800 games at Big Lots brand new during that time. It seems like A good of big lots had Atari 7800 games at the time since it is a sales chain and that is what I heard in the past.

O'Shea, Ltd. had Ninja Golf in stock. O'Shea, Ltd. was known to have a lot of unsold games. They have over a 1 million unsold Atari games.
