    You'll see another Atari 2600 Flashback (and more Sega stuff), as well as Intellivision and ColecoVision, in 2014. For the reasons mentioned elsewhere, it's extremely unlikely most other platforms will ever be targeted, at least by AtGames. There's an outside shot we may see some arcade and Commodore-themed (C-64 and Amiga) products, but I know of nothing else that's being actively considered.

    Hi Bill. Can you tell us any more about the Intellivision and ColecoVision products, or are you bound to secrecy?

     

    I would also like to know about any other Sega related projects. I recently picked up the At Games Arcade Gamer Portable, which features Master System and Game Gear games. It had me wondering if they would make a Master System Plug and Play.

    Imagic for me, followed closely by M-Network.

     

    Imagic is my number one pic for games like Atlantis, Demon Attack and Dragonfire. I also loved the look of their carts. The silver labels and the unique shape was really cool.

     

    Being a serious advertising buff I feel they even made some great TV spots. They were the total package. Style and substance.
