[Atari's Character Bench: Who Is Mascot-Worthy?]

Plus, I also have great respect for indigenous people. That was a good PR move for Atari at the time.

[Atari's Character Bench: Who Is Mascot-Worthy?]

Since I am a Crystal Castles fan, I will go with Bentley. You could never knock the "Bentster!" Did you know he was originally going to be named Braveheart Bear? Atari decided on Bentley because they didn't want to racially offend the indigenous people in North America. I think it was a smart idea to name him Bentley. It fits.

Thanks for letting me share. :)

From the outside looking in, this move appears to be in line with the other moves Atari is making.  It's encouraging watching Atari grow and, more importantly, try.

Agreed. Maybe something will come out of this that is really good. I hope so. :O)

[Oracle VM VirtualBox]

I use VirtualBox now and then myself. In my case, it runs Windows 7 and Linux on my iMac. It's a good virtualization program (hey, it's free). I like it. :O)

Priceless. That's all I can say. :)

[Atari Introduces Clothing Based on 1982 Atari Summer Camp]

Interesting. It's too bad the computer camps didn't take off. I think it's a great idea. :O)

[Getting DVDs and games buffed in 2023]

At least they will work better for you, or they should. Still seems expensive. :)

[Hello!]

I also welcome you to the Forum. It's a very friendly place to be. :)

[What's the Most NES-like Atari 7800 Game?]

Kung-Fu Master is one that could be considered NES-like because it was also ported to the NES (as Kung-Fu). Alien Brigade is another good one. You could play that game with either the joystick or gun. Both are good examples, to me anyway. The other games mentioned are also great examples.

[Can I solve this problem? - Vertical Lines on screen 6 Switch Atari 2600 VCS]

I would recommend using a microfiber cloth affixed to the credit card. That should do the trick, unless there is something else wrong with the machine.

[Can I solve this problem? - Vertical Lines on screen 6 Switch Atari 2600 VCS]

Agreed. It looks to me like it may be a dirty cartridge. If that doesn't work, then check the chips and motherboard. You might want to clean the cartridge port on the 2600 with alcohol as well. A little bit of rubbing alcohol on a useless credit card with some fabric on it might do the trick. :O)

[Atari Dreams]

I have a lot of dreams about protecting my Atari game collection from getting parts of it stolen. I guess I am very conscious of that. Valuable stuff, you know. :O)

[Games Based on McDonald's]

They tried McDonald's Pizza here in America in the 1990s. Unfortunately, the pitch bombed. I remember a friend of mine trying it. That was the only time I saw it, around 1991-92.

I have Sneak King for the XBOX. But, I can't play it because I don't have an XBOX. I just got it for collector's reasons.

Also, you're welcome, RickR. :O)

Interesting. Thanks for the tip, RickR. This is a cool tutorial. :O)

That would be interesting. Like a pith helmet or Fedora. Indy wore a Fedora. :O)

[TRU FUN Games ATARI Jaguar Mortal Kombat Video Series]

Amazing stuff. Interesting how Raptor BASIC and JagStudio can create a game. Seems easy enough, but I can understand it can take a lot to learn it. Thanks for showing. :)

[Retro HQ 7800 GD Cart]

I don't know if it is ready for sale yet. It looks like SainT is searching for third-party retailers at the moment.

This is excellent news, Sabertooth. Thanks for posting. :O)

Wouldn't it be something if Atari swept in and inked a deal to put an Earthworm Jim game on the Atari VCS - and/or just as cool, on a cartridge for the Atari 2600?

I thought I heard that when the Jag was being sold, "Earthworm Jim" would have been a Jag title. Of course, we never saw it on the Jag.

Thanks for the information. I appreciate it. :O)

[Jaguar development with the Removers' library]

Got another question. Will Xcode for the Mac compile it? Thanks. :O)

[Jaguar development with the Removers' library]

Questions: Do you have to build this program? Can it be on the same directory as the tile-map? Also, can this be used for Mac as well as for Windows? Either way, I can use this. Thanks and welcome to the Forum, seeing you are new here. :)

[Jaguar development with the Removers' library]

This is an excellent resource. Thanks for the post. :)

[Anybody still playing Atari Lynx?]

I have both the Lynx I and II models. I got them for collector's purposes. I searched high and low for them. It took a while, but I got them and almost the entire retail Lynx game collection over a period of time. It's impressive, at least to me. Thanks for letting me share. :O)
