    I just watched your new Atari 7800 video on youtube, the Blockem Sockem review, and at the end you were making me really sad when you said you missed John Stoll. You broke my heart a little. Are you guys still friends? Will you ever do any more shows or reviews together? You guys are hilarious together and not the same (as good) apart. Just my opinion but it's like Abbot and Costello broke up. John if you read this, you need Vinnie, give him another chance, you know you want to. 

    We are good. He is trying to monetize his channel and stuff he was doing with me (podcasts, interviews, combined reviews) were his least viewed features, so he had to cut them. We would get around 500 views between both channels and his other stuff gets 1000s... so it was a business move for him.

  2. Jon Stoll II has decided to step away from doing the Atari Network Podcast, and I’m not continuing it without him, so that will essentially be the end of that. I will still update the Atari 7800 Forever website and YouTube Channel, and he will continue with the Atari Network YouTube channel. We had a fun run and I hate that it came to an end. Thanks to everyone who followed and participated in the chat! So much fun! #atari #atari7800 #atari2600

  3. Silverback from the Atari Network and Funkmaster V (Vinnie Vineyard) interview a "big wig" from the Atari Jaguar era. He was a senior producer (project manager) on many original games for the Jaguar, Lynx, and even the 5200 and 7800 as well. There's a lot of insightful information about the waning Atari years in this interview, with info about what they did both right and wrong. Jon and I are going to talk to him again b/c he wants to talk more about Atari Jaguar misconceptions.

    Some of the games he lead while he worked for Atari were:
    Dirty Larry, Gordo 106, Dino Dudes, Cybermorph, Iron Solider 1 and 2, Alien vs Predator, iWar, Kasumi Ninja, Tempest 2000 and more!
