I had a dream about the Atari Jaguar

[+Biff Burgertime]

Last year I became fascinated with the Jaguar and started exploring all there is to explore on the internet about it. I've never touched a Jaguar controller in my life, so playing an actual machine is on my bucket list.

 

Something today reminded me of a Jaguar-related dream I had many months ago. If you've never heard of Stuart Ashen he's a British YouTube personality that reviews poor quality items and food, often from 1£ or 99p stores. In this dream I was an internet personality of some sort myself and agreed to do a crossover video with him. I flew overseas (I'm from the USA) and introduced myself. In our video, we were to visit several 1£ stores. I bought all sorts of stuff, mostly food like every brand of cheap candy that I didn't think we had back home. As we entered the last 1£ store of the bunch, I saw something I couldn't believe...

 

The Atari Jaguar Mini Classic Edition. There were tons of them. Boxes on top of boxes on top of boxes of tiny little Jaguar systems that couldn't sell in the main electronics stores and ended up at the 1£ store to be dumped off to the masses. "Includes the classic Cybermorph!" was written under the Jaguar logo (probably should've been Tempest 2000, eh?). I shoveled as many of them as would fit into my cart and bought them all. I wasn't just going to experience the Jaguar myself for the first time (albeit in a tinier form), I was going to bring a bunch back for my gaming nerd friends back home. I was hoping to play it a bit when we returned to the hotel and maybe get in some multiplayer action with Stuart, but we'd run out of time and I had to catch my flight back home. When I finally got back to my house I excitedly hooked everything up and was ready to finally play...

 

...but I was trying to play a PAL console in a NTSC country. Nothing showed up on the screen. It wouldn't work at all.

Have you had any Jaguar dreams?

I dreamed that all my code mysteriously changed overnight. But it was just rum.

Have you had any Jaguar dreams?

No but usually when I have a dream about a store with an amazing find, I will discover I am carrying no money. So I will leave to get some and when I come back the store has gone up in flames

That's one sad dream... you finally land yourself a Jaguar and it doesn't work. lol Hey, could be worse. If the only game that did work was Highlander. There can be only one... thank the gods for that!

This is way better than my dreams. Past couple of weeks I've been totally butt naked. I'm walking around in public, just going about my business, and then like... "Oh shit, I'm butt-ass naked." No one seems to be bothered, and a few people even compliment me (although still awkward), and then I'm like... hmm... I should probably put something on. Like last night... I was out shopping at a public open-air market (shoot, I don't go shopping, what the hell). I'm walking around, apparently I want to buy something, and then I look down, and damn... totally naked. So I go to buy something (can't remember), and I'm like... can I have an extra bag? ... and the person asks me why, and I'm like.... well... I'm naked. And they're like, nah... you're fine. No really, can I have another bag... and then I'm trying to cut leg holes in it, and it's just not working out... and I wake up.

 

 

That's awesome. I would totally buy an Atari Jaguar Classic Mini... even if I totally didn't need one, and it would a fiduciary irresponsibility to do so.
