Atari® and Steve Wozniak Announce Industry Changing Partnership on Atari VCS™ 

 

The Atari VCS team knows how important the marriage between hardware and history is. Why else would we share so many old time pictures with our fans about days gone by? The original Atari 2600 console literally launched the in-home video gaming revolution that still powers the home entertainment industry today. In honor of this long standing legacy of technology innovations, today we are proud to announce a major new partnership with the father of modern home computers and trail blazing leader in technology, Steve Wozniak. Atari leadership has been in discussions with Mr. Wozniak for some time leading up to this major announcement, and Steve has been a major supporter of Atari since he helped launch our company to stellar success decades ago. Upon first laying eyes on the demonstration model in a high profile public meeting with CEO, Fred Chesnais, Steve is quoted as saying, "neat."

 

More exciting information about this global industry impacting partnership will be announced later this winter. Everything is going great and continues to move forward, with more exciting news to come from the hardware team. This is totally not a shit show. Stay tuned!

NEAT!

Collectorvision did a game called light Grid racing which is basically the light cycles game from the arcade. It’s pretty cool even has the music.

Pitbull and the motorcycle guy from cable? This technology conference keeps getting weirder and weirder.

OH...

 

"Look at me I'm playing with the UNconsole"

 

Like that ?

 

Exactly like that. But add some “bleep”, “blip”, “blop”, “bloop” sounds and you’re right on the money.

I don't know why, but  this gif gives me the giggles, also The Woz looks like he's turning into Santa... Gee, wonder who'll get coal this year... 

I imagine Woz doing this every time Frodo tries to explain the VCS to him

So it's an Intellivision but not the Intellivision. 

 

(I can't believe I'm having this conversation).

 

 

 It wasn't  a Mattel made by Intellivision so it's an Amico made by Intellivision  ... either way it's definitely not a AtariVCS whatever that is

So this event... it's next July?

It's all theoretical until it's not.

I would disagree.  It has the name right on the controllers and the box.  So it is a new Intellivision. 

 

Amico made by Intellivision, for me at least Intellivision will always mean this beast

I do have the Ultimate Intellivision Flashback   but again, just having a source for controllers was nice.

 

90% of my Intellivision gaming these days is on that thing. I love it!

[New Atari Console that Ataribox?]

Now they are calling it a Wozniak event

Yep.  If I had to guess, it'll either be a repeat of the GDC off-site hotel suite fiasco, or they may have someone at a table in a breakout area. 

I was envisioning something a little more like this as the attendants exit the presentation rooms  ...

 

 

 

[New Atari Console that Ataribox?]

I can't find anything Atari related on that destech website so I'm not sure where he would be presenting. Perhaps at a hotel room near the event? This conference doesn't seem to have anything game related that I can see.

Atari's apparently revealing the VCS in 2 days..? O.o

Is this accurate?

 

I wonder if this is why this guy is speaking at the event

Hey retro technology fans! It's a screen less smart watch that communicates via Morse code! On Indiegogo, of course.

found via the r/shittykickstarters group, which has some Ataribox chatter from time to time. 

How did you know that?

Atari seems to be getting annoyed... And I'm not sure why I actually took the time to respond to them.. I should've learned my lesson by now XP

 

Chill out and have a taco.

Well, duh.  Everyone knows he's the real @ColecoJoe!

This makes me desire a Clue game for the Amico ... will the real Tommy please look into this?

The internet never ceases to amaze me with their ignorance and negativity.

So easy to just check... but that would take too much work... y'know... like 30 seconds.  Easier to just hate and spread lies to help push your false narrative.  He'd do well in politics. 

 

Don't believe anything this guy says, he is not the real Tommy!!!!!

Keep in mind this is mocking a user on the insular Atari VCS Supporters Facebook group who accused @ColecoJoe of being @Tommy Tallarico(TT).  It's not really about TT:

 

 

 

 

 

Absolutely!! It’s all in good fun. We love Tommy but live for comedy and tacos.

Where are they posting this? On the Cult/WernerLand?

Yup, a few weeks ago they accused me of being Tommy for some reason.
