  1. I like how Mr. Gaeta thinks if they start production on Wednesday, 2/26, they can start shipping Monday, 3/2 Then changes it to... 4-6 weeks? If they started full production today, not pre-production, it'll take weeks to finish and weeks longer to ship and weeks longer to arrive ?
  2. Yeah - just being honest, the pictures that Atari showed were very suspicious. Because anyone who has been in that industry will know straight away that those facilities weren't set up to manufacture everyone on Indiegogo's orders like they seem to be trying to pass off. Those look like a temporary setup for a custom (and small) order. It's pretty deceptive all around.
  3. The main reason I ask... I worked in manufacturing circuit boards for boat engines for a while (and marine electrical systems.) I saw similar PCB assembly tables. And the time I spent in Ningbo, China was limited, but from the production tables I saw in Atari's update they are equipped to, perhaps, produce 50-100 units a month, with 10 or so units a day. And they list this as "pre-production" so these aren't even production units they were showing. And they have at least 11,000 orders to fulfill. The facilities (sorry 3 tables) they pictured are in no way designed or equipped to manufacture 10,000 production units of anything. Not before 2022 anyway. And currently I'm hearing that a lot of facilities are not going to be fully open for at least another 2 weeks according to what the government is having them do due to the flu.
  4. What are the odds from people in the know (you guys) that this thing actually launches soon? The production photos seem like a very small limited run, like hundreds of units, and not set up for large numbers of orders (like, in the thousands or tens of thousands).
  5. After considering this, I'm with John now. He's right. The virus is just a virus. Atari is forever.
  6. yeah but according to john, and I quote, "Not every single person has the virus" So who's right and who's wrong here?
  7. That John guy HAS to be a troll at this point. Not everyone has the virus so get to work? Maybe he isn't a troll, because it's hard to make this stuff up. This is a pandemic JOHN. Newborns have the virus now. Maybe if Atari had been on their game and launched it when they originally promised... What does he even want it so badly for at this point anyway? Antstream? ?
  8. "well balanced" "great potential for games" "versatility that Atari offers" """custom cooling system""" "I ESPECIALLY ENVY THE UI THAT GOT PORTALS WITH THE SPEED LOADING"
  9. What I see is John P: Left: I can't wait to get my Atari VCS, keep up the good work guys Right: It wouldn't be in your best interest to screw us Atari!!.... you won't like the consequences...
  10. How did these kinds of people find this and back it? The comments are hilarious. I honestly feel kind of bad that that UI is what has people excited about this "exciting project"
