Sad to hear about Ira Valinsky's death. His creations are tasteful and have character.
I can picture that, it's a very late-70s/early-80s view of the computer industry from a time when hardware manufacturers called the shots (IBM, Commodore, Nintendo, etc) and were the ones who instigated the big market changes by bringing out new machines. I suppose he never quite grokked how the rise of software players throughout the 80s and early 90s shifted the mechanics of the industry.
I think, the lack of software for the Jaguar was a consequence of Jack Tramiels treatment of 3rd party developers.
Maybe Sam was more kind to them, but the Tramiel's reputation was already destroyed.

It would have been a very beautiful console. I like the case design. Very sad.
It would be fantastic to see a working Jagduo.

Compared to the Colecovision, bundled with Donkey Kong, Super Breakout was really a strange choice. Maybe they were afraid, they couldn't sell the game as a stand alone title.

He says the truth, man!

Protector is a real gem! I love it a lot! I highly recommend the Resurgence CD! Brilliant Datadisc!
Iron Soldier 2 and Towers II - Plight of the Stargazer are also fun to play! Now i am looking for World Tour Racing and Skyhammer! They are bloody expensive!

@ MaximumRD
My personal choice doesn't represent my all time favourites for the VCS. These games were important for me in the good old days. It is impossible to give them an order and it is difficult to say, which game is more important than another and comes to the top ten instead of others. It depends on personal circumstances. No objective criterions in sight.
The results are very exciting. It's a pulsating thread.

Some of the later games really push the VCS-Hardware.

The naked loaner cart looks like a skull!

A really hard decision:
Space Invaders, my VCS-Killer App
Adventure, no need to explain
Pac Man, anyway it's Pac Man!
Yar's Revenge
Pitfall!
Enduro
Space Shuttle
Pitfall II: Lost Caverns
HERO
Donkey Kong, i love it with all its incarnations!
Honorable mentions: Q*Bert, Gorf, Wizard of War, Mario Bros., Galaxian, Missile Command

My congratulations for that uncle and his Atari treasure chamber!
I am absolutely fascinated by the 5200, because it is really an exotic piece of hardware in Europe. I had imported a console four years ago and there are no regrets about that. So i am always keen on informations about it. It embodies the Golden Age of Atari in a special matter, that "What could have been..." feeling.
I hope you know, what i mean.

It could be a promising first step back into business. I hope so.

Guess, a dream comes true.
They should develop a deluxe version of T4K for the Ataribox! Would be a nice exclusive.

Better he supports the new Ataribox!

I would suggest to make an own live stream format beside Jag Bar, Lynx Lounge and 7800 Avenue. I miss the unstressed atmosphere of the old Jag Bar. Just my ten cents!
-
Thank you for reminding. He was completly out of my head. Actual a shame.
-
Congratulations!

Don't missunderstand me, it plays surely well, but makes no use of the graphic ability of the 5200. So it don't try to compete with the Colecovision.
Well hey there!
