>Looking through Mobygames, the total number of retail Dos games released from 1989,1990 and 1991 was a massive 1902 games (this is excluding educational software, shareware games, PD freeware and compilations). The real number is even bigger than this as Mobygames' disclaimer says a large number of retail Dos games are still missing and not catalogued.
It's interesting that all other systems, the only computer/console that comes anywhere close from 1989-1991 is the C64 with 1421 retail games.
out of those 1900 PC games released between 89-91 only a small fraction (<10%) supported Sound Blaster digitized wave output. It took over two years for true adoption as the de facto standard.
