I don't know why the fuck would you do that, but now you've have to revive the brand somehow.What would you do?Here's what I would do:>First off, cancel all the stupid shit like Atari hotels and whatever the fuck>Rebrand as a primarily online platform where I prioritize, fund and publish up and coming indie games, giving GOG and itch.io a run for their money and eventually buying at least one of them out, if not both>Once I build enough trust from the public and industry alike, we release the VCS for real this time.>It's literally the same thing, with only a few changes, such as updated hardware and an ACTUAL NAME that can be easily Googled and doesn't make it look like yet another cheap attempt to scrape a few last dollars from the original Atari's dying, dementia-ridden boomer audience.>Actually promote the goddamn console by announcing at events like GDC, TGA (lmao) PAX, and the fucking Super Bowl, essentially making a big deal about it>Make AtariOs (a fork of Bazzite Linux) free to download from the website....Oh yeah and you can have the entire 2600 catalogue for 20 dollaridoos, I guess.
>>739027401i'm making a AAA breakout with ranked and battlepasses
>>739027401>What would you do?Turn 360 degrees and throw atari back in the dumpster where it belongs.
Make another Driver.
Make three half assed games and sell it to someone else
>>739027401Itch.io belongs to epic so thats out, the other things require a good amount of cash and time to organise, entire catalogue for 20 .. that's too cheap do a step by step collection edition, similar what konami does with mgs throw in any part of the collections a couple old big name bones to get people to buy those, make an assessment with people who bought them what they want to see next, a series revival or a new game for an existing entry,there might be a couple of other things to think about but I'm too tired have fun with your thread
Centipede REMAKE
>>739028980Nevermind, they sold Reflections (Driver) to Ubisoft.Shit for brains. They don't deserve to continue.
>>739027401Custer's Revenge 2: Electric Boogaloo.
>>739027401>Hire the talented devs, programmers, and artists that AAA studios didn't want>Give them flexible(but a deadline) time to make a game with a medium budget>Be open minded about their input and suggestions to make the game good
>>739030059Also no AI and h1b hires
>>739027401Nothing, I would keep a skeleton crew solely to keep selling the back catalogue, and maybe at some point start publishing new games.>>739029325>Itch.io belongs to epicNo, it doesn't.
>>739027401Which Atari did I buy? There's more than one company going by that name, and none of them can claim to be the "one true Atari".I'll just assume you meant all of them>Keep selling the 2600+ and 7800+ and release software updates and additional games for them>Release an Atari 800+ that's compatible with all the old Atari 8 bit computer accessories and games, make it use an FPGA instead of software emulation if we can afford it, if not just use a cheap arm chip>Reprint old classic Atari games on cartridges>Build new multi purpose arcade cabinets for our old games that utilize all that new high end CRT emulation shader tech to get the same feel as classic tubes>Release collections on the new consoles, PC, and phones>Contract one of those Chinese emulation handheld companies to make a Lynx Mini, it'll be a cheap arm console, but in a Lynx style shell, with a cartridge port if we can afford it, and it'll come with plenty of Atari games packed in, plus a digital store to buy more, and the ability to sideload apps>Reprint Lynx games if the Lynx Mini works out>If the AI RAM shortage ever lets up, we make a Steamdeck clone, and call it the Lynx II
>All the people saying "make a new console"ahhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaahahahahahaha you fucking drooling retards how can anyone actually be this fucking stupid AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
E.T. remake, one of the only games that actually needs one
>>739035395They make new consoles pretty regularly, they just aren't high end modern ones. They make a new 2600 clone every few years. The most recent one even plays original cartridges.
