  1. So this Kickstarter project (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/silverfallsmini/breath-of-thunder-a-jrpg-on-modern-and-legacy-consoles) initially promised a release for several retro consoles for the new crowdsourced game "Breath of Thunder" if certain stretch goals for the kickstarter were fulfilled, including a release for among other platforms the Atari Jaguar, Sega Dreamcast and Game Boy Color, but the creator has since quietly withdrawn that promise and now only focuses on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation Vita, and Atari VCS. Although he still wants to eventually release the game for all consoles that were initially mentioned in the kickstarter, he now considers a release for those platforms a bonus if they ever materialise and shouldn't be considered guaranteed. However, he did release a video on YouTube of him having made a very rudimentary ROM for the Atari Jaguar, but it's basically nothing more than a still image: My take on this is, that because the creator behind it is known for wanting to tinker with different platforms, we'll probably see demo versions, or proof of concepts rather, on many platforms like the Jaguar but the full version of the game only on Nintendo Switch. Still, a neat little project.
  2. I wouldn't know how feasible it is, but that is one sexy machine.
  3. They should've named the three chips in Atari Panther Itchy, Scratchy, and Poochy.
  4. Thanks John! Will fire it up later tonight, it's always exciting to see new homebrew releases for the Jag. Looks great!
  5. Hey Adriano, sorry to hear about the hiatus, you're my favourite retro gaming podcast. Take care buddy.
  6. Which is a shame because they have 2 million preorders in the UK.
  7. You're 100% right, and the only exception I can think of where it would make sense to port a game to Jaguar would be if Atari developed or published a game on NeoGeo in the first place that never saw release on Jaguar (they didn't) or if a game was on both platforms but was superior on the NG which could then be ported to Jaguar yet again, but better this time (and no examples comes to mind). Or if a developer just wants to flex his skills for the hell of it.
  8. Really? Cause I'm still waiting in line.
  9. Not only that, but Virtua Hamster has even been dumped online and can be played.
  10. I know y'all are probably joking, but you do realize that it's a question mark on the cart, right? Not a Z or a 2.
  11. And what comes next? Hey! Bust-a-Move.
  12. Sorry, what I meant was, will there be a release in Europe?
  13. It helps to think of the N64 controller as an SNES controller on which you have added more comfortable handles and an analog stick. The "face" and shoulder buttons are very much alike, if you ignore those features.
  14. Why haven't you used any of them? Is it because whoever produced them didn't acquire rights to any games?
