>Last week, Atari began teasing a new product called the Ataribox.The video released on a non-Atari web site showed a picture of some kind of hardware product, but many people wondered if the teaser was fake. Others had no idea what the video was showing about a “brand new Atari product years in the making.”

>After all, nobody makes a game console with wood-grain siding. But at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), Chesnais told me that the rumors are true.

>“We’re back in the hardware business,” he said.

>Chesnais declined to describe a lot of details about the console. But he said it is based on PC technology. He said Atari is still working on the design and will reveal it at a later date.

>Chesnais said that Atari’s revival is well under way. Atari filed for bankruptcy protection in 2013, but Chesnais bought it and pledged to make it great again. The company is now profitable, and it is engaged in making mobile games. It is licensing its brands more widely, such as licensing its Atari name for the upcoming Blade Runner 2049 movie.

Let me explain how dead Atari is. It went bankrupt and was sold to another company who went bankrupt and sold it to another company who went bankrupt and sold it to another company who went bankrupt. It now belongs to a holding company who bought the licensing rights so they could sell nostagic t-shirts. And that mobile gaming focus you're talking about? It was Denny's who wanted to promote their breakfast menu items slapped over classic Atari games. There is no "Atari CEO." The company is beyond redemption. There isn't even a dead husk left to molest. Atari's copse has been picked clean and the skeleton raped into dusk. It's fucking over.

Considering all the circumstances, don't expect returns of any atari franchise that aren't already being made, they're clearly trying to do a valve here go from a developer to a platform so they can print money.

They'll probably end up being too unreasonable on their fees and turn off a lot of developers.

Just watch man, this shit is gonna be DOA, its been too long for people to nostalgiafag over atari consoles, they've got no selling point and there's no room in the market for a fourth major console. It'll literally go the way of Ouya.
>>
>>380819960
That's a good point. Modding also didn't exist then. But still, imagine now if there were no new games ever again. No games at all would ever be produced again. That'd be fucking awful and you know it, even if a lot of garbage is made you're still missing out on a lot of good stuff like that.

Of course, nowadays, video games are too big to fail, so I don't have to worry. But the ET crash was horrific, and wishing for something of that magnitude again is retarded.
>>
>tfw I want it to succeed so hard but I know it won't
>>
I mean, it might be a cheap, shitty cash-in, but in the context of the current, massive nostalgia/retrowave/90s aesthetics bandwagon we got going on with the millennial crowd, this is actually a genius move. I'm actually surprised that conveniently packaged retro emulation boxes like the mini nes aren't more of a thing right now.

Oh yeah, it would still suck, I'm just saying it wouldn't be as bad as it would have been back then.
Though I would be pleased if everything took just kind of a break for a few years so I could spend time catching up.

>>380820325
That's not even remotely similar.
>>
>>380819753
nah, realistically it would be:
2x Ryzen 6 core APUs custom configured in crossfire.
1TB SSHD
The SSHD would have a specific 2GB partition for OS data, and a custom 4GB partition for frequently accessed data on the SSD side of the SSHD.
4GB DDR5 for GPU use, 8GB DDR4 for general use.

It would just be a PC with a custom CPU/GPU setup in crossfire.

This would cost about 40% less to implement.
>>
The more competition the better, it means devs can be less half assed.

Gaming will be great once again.

Also this could push for more crossplay.

Funny you should mention the Ouya. At the same time as the Ouya hit kickstarter there was a lesser known retro linux handheld called the GCW-Zero that launched it's kickstarter. During the corse of the kickstarter Atari's parent company once again went bankrupt and put it up for sale. The GCW-Zero creator launched a fundable page to try and raise money to buy the company but failed to meet his goal of 1 million dollars. Don't think it even broke 100k.

Not really. If every company were to somehow go bankrupt at the same time, the indie scene would still live on and the consumers would most likely not abandon the hobby entirely, so the indies would form and combine into new big companies. This isn't a niche anymore, the world is too connected and gaming is too ingrained to stop being a thing at this point.

>>380820640
I would agree, but I really appreciate having so much choice. It feels great to have so many games I want to play that I can't keep up, rather than have so few games to play that I get bored with the ones I like.

If it's similar to Steambox, it's guaranteed dead in the water.

I would be all for a modern console that's extremely easy to make games for with very little abstraction.

A console that's basically a learners guide to making projects for targeted hardware.

You could argue we have that with Android, but android is a mess to make complicated projects for. It's like the bastard son of the cousin of Sun Microsystem's Solaris system.

I would be very excited if it turned out to be something that you could do baremetal addressing on.

Stop
You'll be lucky to get a plug and play

There is a hole right now where a newcomer could easily make an impact ala Microsoft 2001. All they'd need is:

>$400 price range
>Easy to port from PC
>No licensing fee for AAA developers

If they could do that, it'd immediately be a player, and could possibly push Microsoft out of the market.

Nintendo already did that. I'm hoping it's 100% digital because disc drives are a waste and physical stores are dying.

They could also literally preload it with every Atari 2600 game ever made. Novelty sales alone would give it a huge install base to sell games to

If they did that it would be a no go for me. Only reason I have a Ps4 on top of my PC is because consoles actually get physical releases. If that stopped then I'd have no reason to have a console. You are the cancer hurting gaming.

It's a Jehri Curl Mullet. This is a thing. It existed from the mid-70s until today because there is no god.

Nintendos meme consoles have proven there's a market for this. Even if it's just a.novelty with old Atari arcade ROMs on it, it could be a money maker.

It'll be an emulation machine in the vein of NES Mini. Nothing to talk about.

Can you imagine if the release-day lineup includes shit like Space-Invaders, Pitfall, and Frogger but updated for current gen expectations.

Like a space rpg for Space-invaders, an uncharted-esque pitfall game, and a frogger platformer. 10/10 would buy.

Yes & yes, I have my Atari 2600 in my room right now. Admittedly though, I'm not like 40-50 so I wasn't around when it was booming, it's just a hand-me-down from my parents. I do have a decent amount of games for it though at least.

I don't imagine them prevaliing by trying to play against 2 identitcal black boxes that is PS4 and Xbone.

Their best chance is some sort of gimmicky bullshit, like VR-based console that plays real games.

Keep in mind that Microsoft was doing alright (although it took the investment of Xbox Live to do so), right up until they fucked up with the Kinect.
