Correct me if I'm wrong, but they confirmed it wasn't a plug and play system that only plays a set number of pre-loaded games, but they didn't say anything about it being on-par with the PS4 or Xbone.

Could be something like a high-end retro system like the RetroUSB AVS where it uses a hardware based solution to simulate old hardware, possibly with cartridge support, or just an online store for both old and new games made for the system.

Could be an Android based system like the Nvidia Shield console, which we haven't seen a new version of yet despite Nvidia having a new chip to put in one. They already partnered with Nintendo as a way to sell their last revision of the Tegra, maybe Atari is getting the latest one?

Outside possibility would be a x86 based system running SteamOS or another GNU/Linux based OS. It already has a lot of developer support, so getting developers to bring games over wouldn't be as difficult as some of the other options (and if they just used SteamOS they'd immediately get all the current Linux games on Steam), and it wouldn't be the first time Atari had supported GNU/Linux.

Absolutely wrong, you literally don't know what you're talking about.

Saturation of the market with shitty samey endless games is what did it. Miyamoto singlehandedly saved the industry with the first Donkey Kong, Zelda and others by introducing narrrative and an 'ending' to games.

The current Atari has almost nothing in common with the old one (they're more accurately Infogràmes), except that they're equally as bad at business.

I don't think you remember just how bad Atari are at business. Here's your reminder:
>They caused the Atari shock, the great video game crash of 1983, after which nearly three quarters of a million 2600 cartridges were literally buried in the desert.
>Their insistence on refusing to credit game developers and being generally a dick to them caused the creation of Codemasters and Electronic Arts.
>Between them and Commodore they handed the home computer market to the modular, but at the time absolutely pathetic, PC platform despite having a hell of a lead in hardware.
>They failed to produce the Atari Panther, then released the Atari Jaguar right before the Sony PlayStation came out.
>They produced a game literally called Trevor McFur in the Crescent Galaxy and dressed up booth babes as furries at E3. (I don't know why they did that, because all the furries used Amigas.)

The only thing they know now is being assholes to the ex-developers and milking as much money as they can out of what's left of the old IPs they bought from the old Atari's repeated bankruptcies.

Don't expect too much. Dig out MAME instead.

This will be a fine start, there's even browser recreations of a few games for you to try out. If you want to actually buy a system, you could look into the Atari Flashback plug n play machines. Atari games are akin to minigames you'd see included in contemporary games, so they're good for killing time and great for parties if you're into that kind of thing

Decide on a demographic that would make the Atari box successful. We already had someone suggest porn games in the other thread.
I'm thinking of focusing on indie devs exclusively to attract the hipsters among gamers. Although this means a keyboard as a peripheral is mandatory.
Another way of going about is what demographic is not yet covered by the other consoles
>Xbox: dudebros and normies
>PS4: niggers
>Nintendo consoles: weeaboos, women and children

So yeah I think hipsters are a targetable demographic for Atari. Their old games would be considered good by hipsters nowadays (they were really good back in the day, had a 2600 myself as a kid)

If it's a new console that plays new games, it's not retro.
That's like saying buying Sega games makes me retro because their last console was Dreamcast which is /vr/ approved.

NES collecting is in the whole retro bubble, but none of the kids today actually care about Atari 2600 games. And there's a big difference in both graphics and game content between NES and 2600

Gauntlet: Diablo-like with up to 8 players online.

The whole Amazon rumor just showed up from no sources, I highly doubt it would be then. Like some other anon mentioned in a previous thread, it's impossible for Amazon to fart in the dark without a dozen financial companies getting wind of it.

Too bad, they'd be the perfect partners.

>>381115239
Swordquest was going to be the single most impressive thing in video game history, if Atari hadn't died in the middle of it. I doubt we'd see the contest again, but I could see a quadlogy of RPGs themed after the original 4.

But I feel the rumor mill would've been circling on this long before Atari announced their comeback.

They're going to start selling Ataris at Whole Foods. Think about it, hipsters with too much money are the primary market for a retro console with wood finishing and shit.

Nobody really knows. There's an announcement for a consolesque system with the Atari brand. The thing is that "Atari" as a company does not exist anymore; it's just a brand name owned by a holding company that licenses out its old IPs. So we have a console of vague description being manufactured by who knows for what market niche we cannot yet discern. Given a complete lack of information, memes gain dominance like mushrooms in the dark and damp. That being said, it sure is one hell of a fun meme.

>>381125491
Pure speculation. It's not the craziest thing though, Amazon has a history of preferring proprietary tech and it'd probably sell better with the Atari logo slapped on it and they have their own game studio so they could have their own console with their own exclusives, plus all the extra Amazon shit.

But really what's going to happen is it's just some rich French bastard that's trying to scam people.
