Atari confirmed they're working on a new console
>confirmed to use PC parts and NOT be a retro box
>mysterious partner, some say Amazon but no valid evidence of this
>ataribox.com
let's hit the showers
>>381062597
It's almost definitely Amazon, since they've been talking about getting into the gaming industry for years. Not to mention Amazon coming up with their own game engine a couple of years back.
First for FUNK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD2Gi5r1JzQ
>yfw the console's OS is gentoo-based
>>381062597
This is the first time I've been excited for a game console in years. Please let this work out.
https://aws.amazon.com/lumberyard/
Reminder.
It's definitely going to be Amazon partnership.
>>381062779
>the ataribox becomes /g/'s console
Just so you guys know if Atari and Amazon fail and don't go for the groovy retro marketing campaign we're going to have to do it for them. So I want you all the shilling this hardcore, it's the only hope for positive change in the industry. If the mouth breathers at /pol/ could meme someone into the White House I'm sure we won't have any issues meming a console to prominence.
groovy
>>381062597
The time of the Elder Gods has arrived.
Atari arrives and strikes down Microsoft and overtakes it's market with PC-style games and roleplays.
SEGA comes back from the grave and strikes down Sony. SEGA pushes their in-house RPGs hard like they did in the Saturn era becoming the new go-to for Arcade and RPG fun.
Nintendo stays portable/hybrid for classic-style adventures, racers and platformers.
The original 3 come back. Videogames are restored.
"Movie games" full of QTEs fade into obscurity. The dark ages of vidya are over.
But a question still remains:Have you played Atari today?

>>381062947
Because Sony niggers kept spamming PS4 games in the comments.
>>381062597
>NOT be a retro box
suuuuure
>>381062910
Sure. I'm all for making groovyposting a thing.
>>381062947
They would all be Groovy memes if it wasn't. The like ratio is good. It's just like Nintendo disabling comments.
>>381062928
Cringeeee.

Damn son, that shit is funky fresh.
Someone give me a quick rundown on what's going down
>>381063030

>>381063289
Nintendo posters have gotten seriously bad since Iwata died and Nintendo ditched the more friendly aesthetic they had with him
Reminder that this will be Jaguar 2.0
Keep the Wojaks coming
>>381063318
Ataritard obviously. We sell him off and buy the /v/ mansion.
>>381063373
To be fair, the whole "multi media home system" meme was a a cancer that began ruining vidya as early as the SEGA CD and PS1 playing music. Then PS2 made it worse with DVDs.
And it escalated with streaming services. Consoles stopped being consoles.
https://youtu.be/A_sY2rjxq6M

It took about 4 years but Wojak managed to swing back around to being funny. And it's the hardest I've laughed on /v/ in a long time.

What fucking games could they possibly have? This is a scam for "retro geek" retards
Can it got enough games? Or will it run PC games+some exclusives?
>>381063552
>Atari announcing a new console has brought in a new golden age to /v/
>>381063365
Shit, there was an emulator for PC and Wii, but I forgot the name. The Wii version was called Wii2600 but I forgot the name of it's PC counterpart.
Play fucking Space Invaders, it's unironicaly the best version.

this is a ruse. it just has that "elaborate 4chan prank" smell to it. let's get real who's behind this, where did it start?
Realistically, if Amazon was backing them, what would the specs be?
I'm guessing pretty beefy because of dat Amazon money.
>>381063642
Amazon + Atari have been working for years to buy up rights to dead cult classic franchises
Expect to see Crazy Taxi, Shenmue, Space Invaders and more
This is why Atari has no hope against PC.

If you could remake any of the old Atari games not just for 2600 but any of them for Modern Day and completely revise the entirety of the game or make something new, what would you do?

With Song not having a handheld, and Nintendo playing both sides. it would make sense that Amazon makes one. Attach the Atari name and whatever games they have rights to and this might be cool.

So...how is this going to work? They don't have any exclusives, they'll have to build a base from nothing, are they just going to have the usualy gauntlet of games that every other console has? Are they going to try to buy out some studios to produce their own games for the Ataribox?

eh, with enough money (and they will have enough money if amazon is their partner), you can brute force your way in. microsoft did it with the xbox and that was only in 2001.

>>381067534
Just jumped in the thread but I am pretty versed on the history of Atari and it's current situation so let me attempt to pass it on to you. Atari is dead. Atari has no employees. There is no Atari CEO. The company has no money to hire a studio to make anything at all. All there is, is the name Atari. And the collection of classic games. The brand now belongs to a holding company who licenses the branding out to companies like Hot Topic to make T-Shirts or the studio making the new Blade Runner movie to throw some nostalgic vibes in their new movie. Denny's a year or two back bought a license to make an app crossing classic Atari games with their breakfast menu items.
So what is happening now? Hard to tell since we got nothing but teaser videos and little to no info. But my educated guess is that someone making another droid box bought the Atari license to cash in on the nostalgia. Slap some wood paneling on an Ouya, say it's an official Atari product, and try and make a deal with Walmart, Target, and 5 Below. Not sure why posters here are eating this shit up when we all know it's bullshit. Guess the groovy vibes are too infectious to ignore. And it is fun to imagine a world where not everything in the video game industry is a scam.

I don't think you were quite able to digest and understand the information that you read. Yes, shovelware played a role in the American video game console recession, however, that was not the only cause nor did it actually cause the collapse you think it did.

>No console
What would realistically be the components of the Ataribox? I think it would be:
Custom AMD 4c/8t CPU
GPU power around the performance of the Radeon 7970 or R9 280
10 GB of RAM (2GB reserved for system so 8 GB)
and a standard 7200RPM 1TB hard drive
But if it isn't close to that it won't matter all that much, looking at the success of the Switch, I think a clever strategy would be to run in their own arena and make quality exclusives, rather than trying to compete with current-gen consoles and PC. People already have all that shit, so nobody is gonna buy an Ataribox just to play the same shit again. Making a 720/900p cheap as fuck console that can run CoD and fifa with no frills is something NOBODY is tackling.thoughts?

>Microsoft has mostly western multiplayer games as a focus
>Sony has mostly singleplayer Japanese games with a sprinkle of naughty dog nowadays as a focus
>Nintendo has nastolgia immature (not to say that's a bad thing, games don't have to be super mature all the time, it's nice to be a little childlike) games as a focus
What will Atari's focus/flavor be?

Doing this a little earlier because it's late as fuck. Made the last three threads and had an honor getting funky with you bastards. See ya later, daddy-o's.
As a Sonyngger, I hope this is successful and drives Microsoft away.

Which is a good thing, handheld monopoly is a bad idea.

Outlaw would star Flint Westtree, a man wanted for a train robbery, who found some secret plan/sensitive documents/illegal shit owned by some rail baron onboard the train. He has to evade the law while trying to bring the truth to light and stopping the rail baron's plans to destroy a small town so he can build his railroad on the land.

I know that technical limitations would've made it really hard, but were there any proto-RPGs on the 2600? they'd have all their bases covered if they could resurrect some old-ass D&D clone from 40 years ago
