It seems like they are celebrating the scam now. It’s been two years since we took your money and we still have nothing but there would be something if it weren’t for a pandemic. Remember it will be worth the wait and have you seen our casino.? I think the best lesson here is how not to ruin a legendary property, hopefully the microprose people watched and learned .

How so? As far as I see it, people would be hoping for Atari to deliver the VCS sooner than the promised casino and cryptocurrency to get that episode. The way I feel it will roll out is the episode will be in the lost legendary files only whispered about about but never heard

Neat website, like the games available but way too much for my blood with the exchange rate. The Canadian dollar like the price of gas is dropping fast right now so I really have to watch what I spend.

Very nice boxes but I’ll pass on the box cause I would rather play it then look at. Besides I could complete several of my collections for that and not have to buy the high price jaguar games to go with it.

Probably not true but I would like to think it was the lesson they learned with the original release. The oringal in my opinion was the better system with more features like the intellivoice but lost to Atari rolling size advantage and name. The same thing Sony did with blu ray after losing the vhs beta max war.

This is what I meant the vcs never had. This video really shows what games will look like and shows that there are developers are on bored with progress being made. Not false promises

I really like the box design, it is a very nice tribute to the activision boxes of the day. I really like this style of graphics because of how fun it makes the game look. I find with some of the box art, it is either rigid but nice or just boring.

I don’t figure many of the hardcore enthusiasts would because of all the bad press and delays but this seems more like the casuals gamers who just recognize the name from their past or people trying to profit like the other classics craze. Overall I think this is going to be a PlayStation mini flop and I know I haven’t seen anything that would wanna make me jump onto this circus yet. I would rather wait for the intellivision to come out because at least I have seen legitimate games and a plan.

Still feels like a scam. I hope it will be good but I am not holding my breathe. With their shipping order could be years before they get to the wait list.

It has my support when it comes out. I like the kickstarter concept and have supported many projects over the years. The only thing I can see that would hurt him with it would be the tendency for games to take forever to come out after the kickstarter. None of the games I have backed have hit their marks for release and I am still waiting for them to come out. I just hope dan has the game basically done when he goes to kickstarter and makes sure that is stressed to hopefully make th campaign go smooth.

Just to add, from what I heard the game will be launched with a kickstarter campaign later this year.

I agree they are just licensing the name to anyone who will pony up the cash. I can't see this ending badly at all but when the name has been traded around since the 80s my only shock is it took this long for the hotels to come. Up next the abandoned amusement park in your neighbourhood is reopening next spring as Atariland because someone dumped a pile of money on our doorstep and we only care about that and not the rich history of the brand.

That would be the only reason to paint I can think of why too. Realistically it is no different then using retro brite to unyellow a Nintendo console just something I would not do with one of those consoles but each to their own. At least it won't make the list for the grumpy retro gamers worst looking custom consoles. That video had some really interesting choices.

I have cleaned dozens of consoles and have seen some that bad. The worst I every had to clean was pop. It made everything a sticky mess. I followed most of those steps, except for the paint. I found I never had to actual paint anything and would be worried about it not adhering properly. There is a statisfaction of bring back a neglected console.
