Ballistik Posted November 18, 2023 Report Share Posted November 18, 2023 On this episode of #BCB, I rank all 11 (yes, *eleven!*) #Atari #Recharged #games! These include all the recharged versions of: #Berzerk, #Quantum, #CavernsofMars, #Asteroids, #Centipede, #BlackWidow, #Breakout, #MissileCommand, #MC2020, #Gravitar & #Yars! I show some #gameplay & #comment on what I'd like to see or what I loved, or both! I rank them from 1-11, with 1 being the game I play the most, etc. Join me on this tour de force of @atari goodness! https://youtu.be/oaHL9b6hxZw Sabertooth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's take a look & sob together! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JapGmqt7C4k I was lucky enough to get my copy of the Plaion-produced standard edition Mr. run & Jump (i.e. not XP, which is a different line and manufacturer). That cart was ordered separately from the rest of my order as I was on the fence about it since I previously ordered the XP version. Anyway, the rest of my order is stuck in Azusa with a label printed since last week. It has not budged. The going theory is that console only orders went out, but if you had accessories or extra games bundled, shipping was held until all items are available. This is unlike Amazon, which will ship partial orders. Atari also indicated on AtariAge that decisions were made by the fulfillment warehouse to ship out of order to expedite processing of the largest amount of orders possible with on hand stock. Here's the link to the Atari rep's response: https://forums.atariage.com/topic/357039-2600-amazon-or-preorder-from-atari/?do=findComment&comment=5352396 So the FOMO is real and you are definitely not alone. Plenty of folks who ordered day one from Atari.com are waiting right there with you. Myself included. Smell Dawg and Ballistik 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just terrible, Atari should have told us that would happen, or given us the option of ordering stuff seperately.. ugh. i ordered like everything on the same order, to make it all cheaper with a discount I got, but... anyways, I made a new Fomo part 2 video in response to this which went up tonight. I'll be reposting it below. Thanks buddy for your updates & support! BB Sabertooth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballistik Posted November 26, 2023 Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 On this episode of #NoFilterHD, I play #Stardash by @orangepixelgames on the #AtariVCS! In this #platformer, reminiscent of a #gameboy #game from 'back in the day," you're running through menacing punishing levels and attempting to find the temple keys to proceed to secret extra levels, while picking up coins and fighting off baddies. What do you think about this 2011 game, remastered in 2018 for #ios and #android? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtO7VT_aNJk Sabertooth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
