hi, I have in my possession an unreleased Atari game from the 8-bit era that is still technically owned by Sega under copyright. its 100% complete but was never released due to Sega pulling the company they owned out of the Atari market and cancelling release. this was in the year 1990.

anyway I know the coder of the game and he's pissed it was never released, he's now dying and has decided to release it anyway, and Sega will know he is the source.

where is the best place to release this (for free) so it gets maximum exposure and to make a dying man happy?

I know nothing of the Atari scene, is there a best website for game ROMS who'd make a big deal out of this?
>>
>>12543138
bro you arent even saying what the game is
it could be dog shit so theres no telling if it will be a "big deal"
>>
>>12543147
I cant say, but the Commodore 64 version of the same game is well known.

when splatterworld was released here on /vr/ there were lots of tweets and videos and a few articles probably about it.

It all depends on the game how much traction it will get, there's a few prototype type sites that release them but I think they hold on to them sometimes and dont release right away so thats gay

my issue is if a known Atari games site releases it then Sega get legal they just wont release it.
I dont know if Sega are like Nintendo and go nuclear on 36 year old games that nobody cares about
>>
>>12543178
if you literally just upload it to a file sharing site, post the link here, it will be downloaded thousands of times and shared everywhere
and theres nothing sega can do about it

I dunno goodluck

seems like a first step to take, thanks anon

make a small site for it, get a domain, then a cheap server space with hostinger. Then you can ask Grok or any AI to make you a quick html page with a download button for it. Link the rom there and post it in all social media. If you want a free space, then itch.io could work

How much longer are you fucking cretins going to shit up this board? This is the fourth time I've seen this retarded thread here and every time there's a bunch of replies saying the same damn thing every fucking time. Why can't the mods actually do shit and ban this son of a bitch so we can have a half decent board?
>>
>>12543316
for an old fuck its embarrassing that you dont know there is a filter you can use
>>
>>12543381
>Just use the filter!
That doesn't fix the board
>>
>>12543316
I think that means you spend far too much time on this board more than anything else.

I peruse /vr/ daily and don't remember ever seeing this thread
>>
>>12543138
Just dump it anonymously on archive.org or literally any free file hosting service, post a link in this thread, and call it a day. If it’s actually an interesting proto then the relevant communities will back it up, analyze it, and ensure it’s freely available on their web domains for perpetuity.

It's bait, he doesn't have shit, the redflags are all here
