Hiya Metal Jesus Rocks...Love your videos..... Tempest 4000 just came out today. All it needs is DX10 graphics card. A cheap used $70.00 or less laptop with an I3 will run it. Anyone who thinks the Atari VCS will not be able to run it is crazy. I still would not waste a single penny on the Atari VCS. Just use Emulators and get AtariDaptor to use old controllers with USB port. The only thing nice about the Atari SCAM VCS is its looks.

I remember a game that came out in 2014 called Minimum. It was made by Atari, Human Head Studios, and Cubed Productions. I fell in love with the gameplay and grinded the game. One day, everybody lost their progress and the servers were down. Turns out, the developers just dropped the game and ran with our money. The servers eventually came back up years later but no one plays anymore.

Stopdrop&retro - want to know more about the Atari VCS modern controller bait & switch... Contact Dreamgear and ask them for an interview regarding their exclusive deal with Atari that they would provide their design, engineering & firmware to Atari to be the exclusive manufacturer & have 2 yrs exclusive selling the Atari controller direct as a 2nd controller to buyers Then Atari rewrote the contract and took out all exclusiveness for Dreamgear then announced their first IndieGoGo and Dreamgear formerly contact Atari and withdrew from all deals with Atari and then Atari had no controller for the VCS and had to show a solid plastic mock-up at GDC... I know everything going on behind the scenes so there’s your tip now go after it.

The other dead giveaway with the Tempest 4000 clip, is the Atari prototype isn't even hooked up to anything; much less powered on! Go back and look again, no wires going to the actual prototype console sitting off to the side. I was kind of excited when I first heard about this console, but I'm getting convinced it's never going to happen. I'm glad I didn't throw any money at it. By the way, the specs mention something about Whole Home functionality?? Another nail into the coffin, how in the world would the Atari prototype do any kind of Whole Home anything???

Yeah, it looked really promising at first and I was actually thinking about getting one after release. But its turning out to be more and more of a created Slush Fund with nothing to show for it. Other than one expensive 3D Printed plastic shell with a media panel on the back and LED light on the front. No one ever thought about taking a pic of the inside!! I'm glad now I didn't throw $200 at it, this is just like the Elio Car project. One non-functional prototype, and tons of broken promises for years and years. It's a clever new way to Slush Fund so you won't ever have to work again out of college. Where do you think the money came from for those fancy new Atari T-Shirts those kids are wearing in the videos? If I had $2.5+ Million, I would be sitting around too faking it with a controller all day. I don't think there's anyone even in China working on this.

Actually, the company currently operating as Atari acquired the brand in 2000, not 2014. It was formerly known as Infogrames, a French game developer. Infogrames changed their name to Atari after their purchase of the original Atari IP, which came with their purchase of Hasbro Interactive in 2000 (Hasbro had purchased the Atari IP in 1998 from the company that had acquired the original 1972 company). The current Atari filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and reorganized itself in 2014, with a new business strategy,, which may explain their somewhat heightened activity over the past 4 years.

Not everyone will listen, but if I can help a few people then it was all worth it. And yeah, it hasn't been all that long but the Gameband watch has already aged terribly.

Clicked just because I thought this vid was just the boldest damn attempt at clickbait I've ever seen about the original VCS/2600, but lo and behold it turned to be one of the finest vids I've seen about the spiritual Coleco Chameleon -sequel. :D Perhaps that indeed was the strategy, and in that case; well baited! Especially effective since as a non-native English-speaker, the term 'CUT N' RUN' didn't mean anything to me without context, it just sounded like a generic game title. Great experience all around, subscribed. On the topic itself, this is just getting funnier and funnier + sadder and sadder all the damn time. Even knowing all this, many are still ok with supporting this fiasco. Some people are just as defeatist about the project as I am, but are still ready to dish out hundreds of €£$ on this vapour, just because it's got an Atari logo on it. I guess that's fandom for ya.

CPU : 4 threads ... 😳 GPU : ~600 gflop 😥 VRAM : 0 😱 RAM : 4Gb (a netbook APU) Price with gamepads : around a Nintendo Switch or a PS4 Usage (according to them) : play games, video on 4k screens. Compatibility with game engines : we will have to use mobile rendering (ES2, ES3 or mobile vulkan with low rez textures / shadows) to make sure you have more than 10fps. Communication with backers : Never a single answer. I got so mad at them : I asked for refund.

The Atari retro handheld, If you look on the back you can see it says blaze which is the same company that sells the flashback portables (its called atgames in us and blaze in UK) so its Most likely the same license from the flashback portable

"Atari" are the ones who put up craptastic games on Steam. RCT World is a disaster. "Atari" are the ones who persecuted Jeff Minter and TxK. We've yet to see Tempest 4000 fully released. But they want to scam users instead? Bottom of my wishlist, it goes. Not out of spite towards Minter; I'd rather my money go to him.

Speaking of him, even LLAMASOFT didn't know about their game, T4K, being on the VCS. (EDIT And you already mentioned that. Kudos to me for failing to remember.) Check on Steam, too. No matter how hard you look, there is no Linux branch on the store front. Not even on SteamDB.

They never actually gave a reason, just that he was no longer part of the project. When this VCS scam is exposed to the stupid saps who helped fund it, I'm sure we'll be able to find out a bit more of the specifics of his 'leaving'.
