The Knight Rider 2600 project

I guess my point in asking that is that Thomas is a great Atari programmer as is. His game has awesome (For the 2600) graphics. Is challenging, fun to play, awesome word of mouth, etc... Plus he is very much involved in the Atari community. That said.... 200 units were sold after how long???

 

Which game was this?

You're expecting him to recall what game he was thinking off 7 years ago? :P

But gee it was so awesome! And the programmer's name is mentioned, that should narrow it down. Someone here will know what it is, I'm confident of that! I'd just like to know it it's still available or, if not, I'd just like to see screenshots on its AtariAge listing and maybe read a review or two.

Thomas. You recently sold a GREAT game with a custom controller. Thrust +. A great game that you didn't have to pay extra to licence. Just out of curiousity, about how many of those have sold??

I don't know the exact numbers, maybe around 200.

 

AtariAge units (which I have one of), the Jah Fish debacle, or both?

The total sales since 2000 (including Hozer).

He definitely had/has it goin' on! :lust:

 

Back in the '80s, I was more of a fan of the short-lived series Street Hawk. I even got the lunch box. Hey! A Street Hawk game would be cool! Doubt he could sell 1,000 of those, though. I'd be surprised if 1,000 people remember that show.

I wonder how the theme song would sound "ATARI 2600 STYLE" I bet it would be kind of cool , but suck for the most part...

Yeah, it would probably just be part of the middle of the music like this:

With no extra stuff added in like this:

 

fake_knight_rider__extra_2010y_05m_15d_0008t.bin

 

 

There's so much stuff in that Knight Rider theme that it would be kind of hard to know what to keep and what to ignore since you only have two channels.

Nothing wrong with floor burger...but I prefer floor pizza.

Street Hawk is about to hit DVD from Shout Factory. Hopefully, they won't screw it up (still pissed off how they bleeped SCTV in a couple episodes...and completely replaced the audio in one segment). It sounds like Tangerine Dreams had a dispute with Universal over the series' score.

I bought it on DVD from a seller on ioffer.com. It is homemade (shhhhhh...) and I made a custom case label for it. I don't know if I'll shell out the money for an official release or not, but thanks for the info!

It can sound better than that:
