  1. Happy Atari Day friends!

      I think some Video Pinball is in order.

      Gravitar for me.

       

  2. I had a dream last night that Beetle Juice from the Howard Stern Show ran an illegal car wash and lived in a bus in Greenween's backyard.

  3. I really want to like Swordquest but I find it hard to follow, even with the comic books. It's a cool idea that was probably too big for the 2600 to do very well.
  4. Here's another video from StopDrop&Retro on YouTube. I really like his stuff......
  5. Funny how "Dink" means different things depending on where you're from

      In Spaceballs, it's an entire language.

      I had an uncle who's nickname was Dink. That's all he was referred to.

  6. Smart of this dude to apologize and resign. But what's Mike Kennedy's way out? I don't see one. He can't really resign from his own thing. How does this end?
  7. I just watched those videos MaximumRD posted and watched them twice. It's hard not to wince when you see it. To me it looks like they didn't have their board ready for the NY Toy Fair and knew things would go into a tail spin if they didn't show up with the product as promised, so they went into panic mode and made it work with a SNES Jr board stuffed in that Jag shell. My guess is there's a real board out there being worked on but it's behind schedule. Even if it was the real deal they need to be at trade shows with pre production units, not breadboards. This has gone from Comedy to Tragedy. This thing is slipping away.
  8. I'm keeping my money in my pocket for the time being. Let's wait and see what happens.
  9. Been watching Venture Bros. a lot tonight, it's still a good show

      I love Venture Bros. The writing was top notch. I still watch clips.

  10. It's boring and not a single screen from a game on the cover or a picture of the console. Who came up with that? Let's hope the book is 100x better than the cover. You know what they say about judging a book by its cover.
  11. I hope they change the cover before the book comes out. It's a pretty boring looking cover....
  12. I read throu the article twice. It's meant to be a positive story on Lynx but it sure feels like a hit piece to me. All these negative things in there and not much positive to say. I mean really, who hates on ElectroCop?
  13. I have big hamburger hands and I found the Jaguar comfortable. The Lynx too! I had the 2nd model w the grips on the back. You could hold it for a long time and not get hand cramps. I like that idea of the Lynx being a Jaguar controller too.
  14. What's everybody up to for Super Bowl Sunday? I'll be playing Tecmo Bowl :)

      Tecmo SUPER bowl? I have it here for the Genesis. I should pop it in.

      I mowed the lawn in preparation for my daughter's bday party. Now I'm off to pick up pizza for the kids. Then I have to finish a paper for my Organization Theory class; its due at midnight. Yep, super bowl Sunday!

      All sounds good to me!

  15. Good sex is right on the verge of "this is going to court"

  16. Between the 2600, 7800 and computers I never felt like the 5200 was really worth anything to me. Most of the games were pretty muddy looking, and between the archaic graphics of the 2600 and the cartoon-like graphics of the NES it was neither here nor there. And who releases a new Atari system without a new Yars' Revenge? Dumb!
  17. Rest in peace you fabulous bastard :(

      I had to research this, not being a twitter guy, but this is troubling.

  19. This was a good review. I like Pinball a lot and I really wanted to like Pinball Fantasies more than I did. It had some cool levels. The gameshow one and the car one. It's a cool game, but it's not a great game. Young Mr. Mason hit the nail on the head: "I think it's not enough."

    AMIGA Memories

    1. My first exposure was in a catalog. I saw it and thought it was cool. Then my friend's family had one. His dad did something with video production but I'm not sure if that's why they had the Amiga or not. 2. I was attracted to the Amiga because of its graphics and price. I had never seen graphics like that on a computer before. Most all computers were IBM PCs at the time. They had green monochrome screens and most of them were running DOS and had DOS prompts. Not really for gaming. We had Apple II computers in school which were really awesome, but the graphics were about the same as Atari. Macintosh had just come out around that time. I liked the Mac but it had nothing on Amiga and it was so overblown. It had a black and white screen and it was not really made for playing games. Plus it was so expensive. Amiga felt like the first true 16-Bit game system. Probably because thats what it was meant to be when it was being developed for Atari. It would have been their new game system by 1986, ahead of PC Engine, Genesis, everything..... 3. I used my Amiga computer to PLAY GAMES!! My favorite Amiga games at the time were Lemmings, R-Type, Cannon Fodder, Out Run, Golden Axe, and The Secret of Monkey Island
  21. Thanks for all the love gents. Can't wait to see you all this summer when we demo Dreamcast 3 at E3 Expo.
  22. Thanks for the support guys. Our PR team is sending out Press Releases tomorrow to the lazy journalists at Kotaku, Polygon, Ars Technica, and Re/Code. We're going to try for what's left of Joystiq and those shrill broads at Gawker if anybody is left to listen. They'll likely pick up the story and reprint our Media Release without much thought or curiosity like they always do, so I'm expecting lots of gab about Dreamcast 3 on social media over the holidays. We're serious about making Dreamcast 3 (Project Daddy) a reality. We're gonna do this guys!
  23. ya Blazing Lasers showed a lot of promise for TG16 in the early days. It was my favorite game for the system next to Alien Crush.
