so what the hell is that VCS thing they released years ago?
custer's revenge remastered huh. kinda controversial but okay
>>745920985A console that sold 10k
>>745920884>atariholy unc
Feels like Atari announces " something big " every year and every time it ends up being a nothingburger
>>745921271Is that a lot?
>>745921356No lmaoIts the worst selling atari console
>>745921296They bought nightdive
>>745920884I think they will bring their Evercade console to retail stores.
>>745920884Blood III
>>745920884Please be an actual new console this time.
>>745920884
>>745921882kek>why are u shitting on my plate>its not even out yet!!
>One of the biggest announcements we've ever madeThey are finally making a console where you have to shout advertiser's names to skip ads
>>745920884They love saying this and then announcing some shit like "The NEW Atari Mini Micro UHD X!" that no one cares about period.
>>745920884lol nobody cares>Jaguar minilol nobody cares
>>745920884Groovychads, we are so back!
>>745920884HOLY SHITGUYS BUBSY 5D
>>745920884>Atari re-enters the console scene>Makes a system with less horsepower than the Switch>Sells it for under $100>Ushers in a new glorious golden age of 2D gaming as indies and even developers embrace it>Gaming is saved
>>745922341They already did that and nobody bought it or cared. Coleco and Intellivison also tried that and turned out to be both kickstarter scams like they always are.>under $100>in 2026lol, go touch grass
>>745922341I'm fine with that. I play a lot of indie games on my chinkheld. If big companies want to cater to that, alright
>>745920884>atariS
>releases some over priced console>it's runs like shit>forgotten in a monthcan't wait
>>745920884They are just going to announce a pivot to AI so they can rake in investor-bux
Atari still exists?
>>745920884PONG 2!
>>745921671That implies the existence of Blood 2 which we shouldn't
>>745923576Blood IV
>>745923576We should and Blood 2 should be complete canon and Blood 3 just continues rolling on right after it and takes it in a completely new direction because Blood lifts most heavily from Phantasm and this is the Phantasm way
>>745921882
>>745920884They buy M2.Or at least Hamster.
>>745923576>>745924184Blood 2: They actually made it this time
ATARI AMICO
>>745921751Atari VCS was a new consoleIt just sold like shit
the atari megastructure will be announced to begin construction
>>745920884>biggest announcement>we still exist somehow in 72point font>later virgins>free pussy for everyone
>>745924347New Nightdive remaster, owners of Refreshed Supply will get $2 off of a reduced price of $38!
>>745924613Actually atari owns everything but amico
>>745924708They actually are building a hotel
>>745921356>10k units>a lotYou must be at least 18 to post here.
OWWW YEAH WE’RE BACK BABY!
>>745923075At this point it's a miracle
>>745921356The Wii U sold like 15 million and that was considered a HUGE commercial failure.
>>74592571913.56 million.
>>745920884I hope it's a reboot of that old ass Nerf Arena game they had back in the day. That shit was pure 90's PC Kino
>tune into the announcement>Its just Demarcus "BIG D" Washington jerking offPranked.
>>745925081For context. This is worse than the apple pippin at 40k
>>74592599113 million being a failure is crazy
ET REMAKE LETS GO
>>745926717When something doesn't meet sales projections, it's considered a failure. It doesn't matter if the projection is a billion dollars or three hundred dollars.If you didn't meet it, the endeavor failed.
>>745926893Sounds stupid
>>745920985A console that they fucked up because they dragged their heels making and releasing it and then never bothered to give it any real support.There was no way it was gonna be a game changer but they could have carved a small niche for themselves and with Sony and Microsoft sucking cock right now they could have *maybe* tried to edge in a little bit with a follow up right now if they hadn't fucked up as bad as they did. Tbh they might be thinking of trying it anyway.>>745920884I've notice that they've been weirdly really aggressive about licensing out their library to make as much cash as possible and buying up a fuckload of old IP, as well as fucking about with more and more capable retroconsoles and portables. Sony and Microsoft are never gonna be weaker in console terms than they are right now, most likely, and most of the Jaguar's [very few] good games weren't made by them anyway, so they *might* try a VCS 2 or some fucked up Lynx descendent with physical carts [they've been kissing up to the evercade guys a lot] but it's pretty unlikely.More realistically, they might try Doing Something like actually developing a new AAA game based on one of their IP and testing the waters to maybe try pulling some shit when the PS6 inevitably comes out and chokes to death, MAYBE.Atari fucked themselves in the ass so many times in the past though that it's made them hypercautious about doing anything other than catering to the ever dwindling market of 2600 purists, which in turn ironically has made them continue to fuck themselves in the ass repeatedly whenever they DO almost muster the balls to do anything substantial, so they might have figured out they need to take it a bit slow and prepare first with shit like resources and an actual fucking plan to test the waters this time around.
>>745927372I'd kill for a VCS 2
>>745923075modern atari is literally a skin walker
>>745922246Bubsy 4D was great so I'm hyped
they're gonna finish the swordquest series?
>>745923075It's just an IP holder company by now. No different to Embracer and such.
>>745928115They already did that in Atari 50th.
Atari could introduce their own Switch-like console with their own exclusives.I'd buy that.
>>745928170itsnot
>>745928170They literally just made a new BubsyAnd hired Wayforward to do a Yars game with a cute anime girl
>>745921882>food analogy
>>745920884>biggest announcements>miniDumbass.
>>745928694Pajeet-san....
>>745920884Persona 2 remake
They buy the post-1984 Atari, Williams and Midway libraries from Warner Bros.
>>745928694>Shit is foodSAAAAR
>>745928631>They literally just made a new Bubsy>MadeThey published it. A dev pitched the game to them and they said sure, go for it.
>>745928407It's a reasonable chance. >>745927372is right that Xbox and Sony, especially Sony, are basically never gonna be weaker and they have been both buying a lot of shit, making a lot of hardware, and selling a lot of their collections on fucking everything even more than normal."Atari Sabertooth or Lion or Bobcat or some shit" and some kind of performative declaration of a new Console war with Nintendo with physical games to prey on Sony's weakness seems at least plausible.
>>745923075Not really. Go back to bed.
>>745929939No
>>745926717>>745927212When you sell nearly 90 million less units then your predecessor then that is considered to be a massive failure
>>745921872Groovyposting was a great meme.
>>745928938....Does this mean a new fucking Carnevil?
>>745920985The specs got neutered because of covid/crypto, and now it's just too expensive to keep making now with all the AI shit going on so they discontinued them. A shame because you could throw SteamOS onto them and use them like HTPCs.
>>745931001I just mean in the grand scheme of things
>>745920884Haha yeah something big is coming alright!
ET is being re released?
>>745920884>one of theoh, boy...
>>745933376That happened already
>>745920884Finally, the Atari 10400.
>>745920884Did they actually finish E.T.?
>>745920985It was a PC running a console style Linux distro. It had an unlocked bootloader, so you could put Windows on it if you wanted to.
>>745921872There aren't many good wojak variants but this was one of the few good ones.
>>745921751Please be a new console with a disc drive or cartridge slot. They're still making new 2600, they have the capability to make carts.
>>745932525New? No. But I could see Nightdive picking this up to remaster.
>>745920884these scammers need to give it a rest already. nobody fucking cares about the name Atari now for over 30 years
>>745933843Hopefully they at least finish the Tunnel of Love or Lug Flume levels that got cut.
>>745922341I'd buy if it had physical games. If I wanted to be pedantic, I'd say the 2600+ and 7800+ already exist, but I'm not. Those do prove that Atari could do it though.
>>745933984I don't see why they wouldn't unless it's lost.
>>745927757At least the current skinwalker is pretty cool. Way cooler than the one that owned that skin in the 2000s.
Why did Nightdive skip out on Quakecon this year? Seems pretty shitty when it was an anniversary year.
>>745920884Demake of X or they sold the company to a muslim country.
>>745927372>or some fucked up Lynx descendent with physical cartsI don't think its unlikely. They just did a 2600+ and 7800+. The next logical step would either be a Lynx+ or an Atari 800+. These things run on what's basically a microcontroller, so they're not really effected by the RAM crisis. Hell, they could even add a mode for playing games utilizing the hardware natively instead of just emulating old consoles, that would allow for much more advanced graphics.
>Atari posts it's first ever profit in decades>Stock goes from 25 cents to 30 bucks>The profit is a technicality, 0.1m Vs tens of millions of debt>The stock move was a reverse split, accounting for that and new shares made last week to pay debts, everybody who held on is actually down 17%
>>745928529Atari hasn't been Atari since 1996. Atari Corp (the computer and console Atari, not to be confused with arcade Atari who got spun out after the console crash of '83 by Warner and Bamco and eventually got.bought and shut down by Midway in 2000, then required by Warner after Midway died in 2009) had it's assets and branding bought by Hasbro Interactive, who got bought by Infogrames, who rebranded as Atari, who was mutineered by Frédéric Chesnais who gutted the company during it's 2013 bankruptcy to go all in on online casinos, the Ataribox, cryptocurrencies and plans for Atari casinos that never materialised. Wade Rosen of Ziggurat Interactive bought out Atari in 2021, culled all the gambling shit and currently heads the Atari we know now.
>>745935109Actually it hasn't been atari since the 80s
Okay /v/ what is atari announcing?
>>745933720Atari Jaguar CD mini
>>745920884The greatest twist would be them announcing the beginning of the next vidya crash.
>>745920884>sign up below with your email to stay in the loop>act now, so you don't miss outBut...why would I miss out? If it's a big announcement, I'll hear about it. Even my grandma who's a dirt farmer in Botswana knows about GTAVI.
>>745935520>"With this detonator I will teach you all the true power of Atari Shock">Accidentally blows up Bill Gate's 10th beach house, Iwata's dog, and Sony's Movie HQ>PS6 still fucking DOA and they go under anyway.
Jive turkeys stand no chance.
>>745922246They're going to make the next Bubsy game straight-up gay furry porn. That's how desperate they're getting.
Atari version of the steamdeck
>>745920884if it's not a hardware partnership with steam I don't give a fuck about the ET remake with black trans disabled ET
>>745934534>>745935297The lynx was a disaster and had all of 3 good games, none of them strongly coated in nostalgia, unlike the 2600 and the 7800 which at least had decent libraries for their time and historical prestige. And the Jaguar isn't much better with how it had barely anything considered worthwhile that was actually made by Atari.Unironically a steamdeck clone or switch style hybrid with 1 or 2 AA Atari exclusives seem legitimately more likely and its still retardedly unlikely to happen.Whatever it is though it's definitely bigger than just retroclones of failed consoles nobody liked that have spent the last several decades being shit on, they've been spending money to make money like fucking crazy lately by Atari standards and building a fat fucking warchest. They sold the movie rights to fucking Asteroids and a pile of other games for millions a pop apparently, you don't do shit like that unless you're planning to put that money to work.
>>745920884Ok, so I looked into it and the Atari 2600+ uses a Rockchip RK3128, which is somewhere around the power of a higher end Pentium 4. That would put it well above the power of an original Xbox, and have it pushing the power of a 360, at least in terms of CPU. And it has 256MB of RAM. They could totally make a Jaguar successor with that hardware, do retro style 3d stuff on it about on part with what you would've seen in the late 6th gen or Wii. They could probably even manage modern looking 2d games on it.
>>745934163Because they dont give a shit and them being 'fans' was all a larp
>>745934163Literally the shit they do can be done by claude in a day. They are nobodies
>>745923075it exists in the same way microprose still exists, in that someone bought the brand. unlike microprose though, they're not using the brand to publish new games, they haven't done much other than coast off old IPs and threaten to sue openTTD if they don't require people to pay them 10 bucks first.
>>745923075It's had a long history of changing hands. The original Atari died in 1985, and the name got sold to Tramel Corporation for home consoles and a joint venture between Warner Communications and Namco for coin-op Arcades. Then JT Storage bought the assets of the home console side in 1996, and passed the intellectual property on to Hasbro, who used it as a sub-brand of Hasbro Interactive.The arcade side got folded into Midway around this time, too, and went defunct when the arcade business dried up not long after.Then Infogrames bought Hasbro Interactive, and adopted the Atari name for themselves in 2001. They've been Atari ever since then.Which is to say, Infogrames has operated under the Atari name for over twice as long as the original company did. So there's no real reason not to call them Atari, unless you're just that much of a Nolan Bushnell hardliner, for some reason.
>>745936505Yeah, they've been massively overengineering these things for a bit. It's honestly one of the biggest arguments for "Atari has been trying to relearn how to build a console."
>>745936393The 7800 was a flop too yet people still bought the 7800+. The Lynx is looked back on fondly by Atari fans and retro collectors, who are the people they sell to. Anyways, it could be an Atari home computer clone. Those did do really well. Atari basically lived off its home computer line during the video game crash and the failure of the 5200. There's loads of good games for that, and other companies (mainly Commodore) have already done well in the retro computer clone space lately. I'd certainly be interested in an Atari 800+ or 1200+.
>>745936714Its not really overengineering. They probably just took the cheapest ARM SOC they could source reliably and used it to base their consoles on. Its why all those chinkheld companies also use Rockchip processors. It being strong enough to run Xbox and Wii tier stuff natively is just a happy accident.
>>745936665they weren't really using the brand for gaming until pretty recently, in 2021 they went>we should use the Atari brand to get back into gaming, gaming is really booming right now.before that they were mainly doing casino/crypto shit.
>>745920884Atari announcements are always the same tier as harmonygold announcements, they just know to do it online only. >We have an announcement>Get excited, 3 days away!>(3 days later) We a reselling a figurine we made last year! But look, this one has posable shoulders!
>>745937140every year i pray they lose their macross license.
>>745937140I think new consoles are more impressive than a figure with shoulders.
>>745936925Apparently the ceo that took over in 2021 really likes gaming and is the main driving force of all the atari remasters and ip games being put out the past five years. Not to mention nightdive.
>>745927212how exactly does that "sound stupid"are you a moron?
>>745936925That was between 2013 and 2021, under Frederic Chesnais. Who had brain worms or something making him completely fucking retarded. He ran the company into the ground with that gambling shit. I have to assume he thought it'd help him step on Konami's shoes in those industries. As if it was the brand stamped inside the service door that mattered, and not the fact that Konami had been in that industry from day one.Ever since 2021, they've had a guy who actually wants to make video games in charge. They license their old worthless IPs out to Raw Thrills to make easy money in what's left of the Arcade space, and try to salvage whatever else they can, like Bubsy, by handing that shit out to medium sized indie devs with some pedigree.Their biggest mistake is always announcing shit way too early and letting the iron get cold. Bubsy 4D would have sold a fuckton of copies if it released the week after it was announced, but the novelty of the prospect of a good Bubsy game wore off before anyone even played it.
>>745933843Nightdive remasters lightgun games?
>>745920884I think you mean Jaguar+
>>745926717Nintendo's threshold for failure before the Wii U was the fucking Gamecube at 21 million sales, just to emphasize how badly the Wii U did.
>>745937781What about the Virtual Boy?
>>745920884GTAVII
>>745920884Does the jaguar have enough games to justify a mini console version?
>>745937971They can always make new ones. Or rely on the people at AtariAge to make new ones for them.Or alternatively it could be an Atari 800 clone.
atari just release the Jaguar and it's a 8 foot tall race of Jaguar robot women who hunt down human men, what the fuck!
Wait.Is Atari going to announce a VR headset?Look at the red tagline in the ad.
>>745938145I’ve been watching retrospectives on the jaguar recently and it’s really nuts to see how poorly the whole thing went. They just didn’t have any actual games on the thing, it’s like they decided to pour so much into the console without any actual desire to make a game worth showcasing why you’d buy the damn thing. It certainly didn’t help that they had such piss poor third party support, but when their only ideas seemed to be movie adaptation games I guess it was deserved
>>745938221The fact that it has shelf makes me think maybe they're gonna do something with physical games. They are a publisher after all.
>>745937809That give people migraines.
>>745938570I'm just saying, wouldn't that be their threshold for failure?
>>745921110Atari didn't make Custer's Revenge, that was some unknown firm called American Multiple Industries.
>>745933130It makes sense when your predecessor was a massive success
New console that will require unique bulky cartridges and cardboard box. They are working with developers for custom versions at higher price. Basically an elite tier console for collectors. All releases have to follow these guidelines. pulling this out of my ass
>>745922341...the Ouya?
>>745938963The OHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>745920884let me guess another atari clasics release
>>745936727The Atari 7800 outsold Sega in the US at the time and did alright. It made its costs back nicely and even turned a reasonable profit, but it just wasn't the NES, nothing was, and it wasn't a huge deal overseas either, unlike how the Master System made a fortune in Brazil and Europe. It's not really accurate to call it a "flop" when it made solid dosh, it just wasn't what Atari wanted it to be, which was a NES killer capable of giving them dominance in the market again.
>>745937781If the Wii U is a failure man did Microsoft have the console for you it was this little thing called the Xbox and it cost them several billion dollars in losses.
>>745920884Atari still exists?
>>745940451the name does
>>745923075It's actually Infogrames voring Atari
>>745920884>Atari>something bigI laugh
>>745923075It's Infogrames. Has been for decades now.
>>745920884It could have ROM with the entire game library (CD as well) in under 8GB.
>>745927757A lot of modern companies are. MGM in particular has gone through so many incarnations it will make your head spin, the company that existed from 1938 to 1980 is legally owned by Hilton now, because the original MGM spun off its film operations to be MGM Grand Hotels Inc., which was sold to Bally (casino operators) with Kirk Kerkorian retaining rights to the MGM Grand name, then Bally got bought by Hilton (later they spun off the casino operations, but that didn't include subsidiaries).
>>745937241The issue for me is, i like 'the macross saga' in the context of robotech more than i actually like macross. But they announced a live action film like 20 years ago and so far all we've gotten is abandoned nft's. I FUCKING HATE HARMONYGOLD>>745937263>IP recycling is exciting depending on methodPeople like you deserve genocide
>>745936228This would unironically make more money than bubsy 5d ever could dream of
>>745941292Warner Bros (originally Turner before Warner Bros bought them out in 1997 to get the pre-1948 Looney Tunes back), not Hilton, and that buyout was in 1984.Also, 1924 to 1984, not 1938 to 1980.
>>745941862MGM split up the company in 1980, one to focus on the casino/hotel biz and one for films. The film company was the spin-off, the casino hotels was the original. Turner got involved in the spinoff.
>>745941673>People like you deserve genocideFuck off, new 2600 consoles and new physical cartridges are cool. I don't care who makes them as long as they get made. There's a finite supply of retro consoles in the world, but not a finite supply of Atari 2600s and peripherals. I can replace my broken paddle controllers because of this.
>>745941673Seriously though, have you seen the store page on Atari's website. They sell lots of useful stuff. Plenty of new physical releases for the 2600 and 7600 in addition to reprints. New controllers to replace the 50 year old ones we've been stuck with. Clone consoles that play physical carts. Wireless controllers that don't require D-cell batteries or need an antenna the size of my arm.That's a lot more than a reprinted plastic model. Chiefly because unlike a plastic model, electronics wear out and die, even if perfectly stored.
>>745941785I'm not kidding about how close they are. Between this, the self-awareness about sexualized fanart, and even soliciting some as part of the marketing campaign, they're as close as you can get to just committing to porn without actually doing it.
>>745942253>New controllers to replace the 50 year old ones we've been stuck with.That's trivial to do. It's five dogshit membrane buttons on the simplest PCB you could make. The injection molded parts might seriously cost as much as the PCB does. They're probably making $20 in profit on a $25 product.
>>745943387Ok, but I don't injection molding equipment nor do I have the machinery to manufacture custom PCBs. Nor do I know what electrical signals the 2600 uses. I also don't know how the paddle controllers are made.Also this is more of a nitpick, but Atari joysticks aren't membrane based. They use metal switches. That's why they're so stiff.
>>745943551>but Atari joysticks aren't membrane based. They use metal switches.They don't.
>>745922967They're going to announce the assasination of all the ai ceos and the politicans that prop them up and usher us into a golden age of affordable hardware
>>745943689Original CX40 joysticks did use metal switches.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZOir9eGvWw
>>745943689Is that one of the new ones? This is what the internals of an original look like. They have a metal spring in the single button, and they flex those brass tabs you see there to register joystick movement. Though I suppose they do also have rubber on the bottom of the stick, so I was half wrong about that.
>>745943772>>745943854I was talking about the new ones, because I was making a point about how dead-simple and cheap they are to make. You might as well have said something about the manually drawn PCB traces.
>>745943987Cheap to make as they may be, they would not be cheap or simple for me to make. So its still good for someone to be manufacturing them so I don't have to deal with second hand goods exclusively.
>>745920884>company who has never made a big announcement after the 80s, the time when games were blocks moving from side to side, is gonna give their biggest announcement yetWow, very excited!
>we're going to be announcing something!who the fuck cares. either say it or shut the fuck up
Only reason anyone under 40 knows of atari is solely because of avgn
>>745940557>>745940615Infogrames still exists?
their very own Hyenas>>745921110the japs already remastered 117, so it is long overdue.
>>745920985it's essentially an Atari branded Steam Machine with upgradable ram
>>745920884Please tell me is another video game crash!
>>745924692Because there was next to no marketing after the initial announcement, had no developer deals for an actual launch lineup, and barely had any post release support
>>745920884Atari literally hasn't actually been Atari since they got acquired by Infogrames back in 2009. It's just a skinwalker publishing company now, they don't produce anything.
>>745947315Neither has Microsoft or Sony since at least the last generation
>>745945567I know them from CGR
>>745947393Sure, that's true. Not sure why you bring them up, but I can't disagree.
>>745920884who?
>>745947315>>745935109The current head of Atari was mentored by Nolan Bushnell himself and cares deeply about Atari's legacy.This may not be the "original" Atari, but it's as close as you're ever gonna get.

>>745936135100% GROOVYWE'RE SO FUCKING BACK UNCBROS
>>745931001It's why Nintendo largely exited the console business, and now do their Handheld that's sort of a console thing.

>>745956124Why not, you price at 100 or something around that, not like you are gonna sell space invaders at 40 dollars today no? Anything you do with the classic games is free money. The zoomers will have their nostalgia paperweight and some crazy guy will actually buy it for the games.
>>745956207I got atari 50 on sale and the problem it has is 90% of those old 2600 games are okay at best and any games I wanna play are locked under license

>>745957984Yes
>>745957984I'm leaning on the jaguar
>>745920884If Richard Garriot got the rights to Ultima back, he is now working with Atari. A remake of an old Wizardry, or a new Wizardry game. Hopefully, it's Rush 3, with Barry Leitch composing again.
>>745960792Isn't Ultima the series that spoony used to rave about?
>>745920884Here's the 'something big' that Atari was teasing, baybeeEEEEEEE
>>745920884Atari does this every two years and it becomes something massively underwhelming like some overpriced wood grain console
>>745961817I WANT TO BELIEVE
>>745961745NIGGA THAT'S NUTS
>>745961745>745961745NUTSWE
>>745920884They found the source code for ET and are going to re-release it
>>745921872was looking for this
>>745964237Nooo
Are they announcing that they're selling the name and branding to a more competent company that has ideas that isn't "Let's remake Atari hardware as expensive as possible using the cheaper parts/emulation"?
>>745967104They don't have strong IPs like Sega to afford sticking to just software and they don't have the budget to make any successful modern hardware as demonstrated by the VCS 800.Literally what else could they do but sell nostalgiabait merch to millenials?
>>745920884An FPGA based Atari ST?
>>745920884The corpo is telling me to get excited for product? Oh boy, I can hardly wait!!
>>745923075>>745946549I guess effectively, they exist "again". Infogrames never really fully went away, but for a long time they did like slot machines, or crypto, or other dumb bullshit.Sometime during 2020 IIRC, the company got a new CEO and he basically went "this company is literally just known for videogames, wtf are we doing anything else for".Since then they basically tried to resurrect as a sort of retro game-focused publisher. Snatching up rights for ancient games/franchises on the cheap, sometimes trying to do something a little more with them. Apparently it's been going fairly well.The new Bubsy games was apparently also that CEO going "this is a character literally everyone knows, wtf is the point letting him rot", which is kind of a comically pragmatic way of viewing it.
>>745920884I imagine it's either an official emulator that plays a lot of Atari games. Like that mini 2600 thing they made.Or it's a knock off Steam Deck with Atari branding
>>745920884>big newsthe only thing that would be big is them going back to making consoles—would be instersting in todays climate with sony & microsoft watering down the special role of the console as an exclusive, closed system & making them indistinguishable from actual pcs also in price—
>>745967104no who the fuck would buy that
>>745971832I want that second one
>>745920884Atari recently moved its headquarters to my hometown in germanythey have like 30 employees
>>745973082I thought it was Luxembourg?

>>745974451But its physical
>>745974810okay, and??
ET2
What if it is a console? Not a competitor to the big three but specifically a retro one since it's a big trend nowadays even among zoomers and alfa. And you don't need any advanced fancy ramsticks for this.

>>745975014This presentation is a lost art
>>745974451But with the Post-1984 Atari, Williams and Midway libraries as Atari S.A. bought the libraries from Warner Bros.
it's gonna be the WHITE VCS
