PlaysWithWolves Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Yes- that means only one of us can actually make judgement on the hat..while the other is trying to amuse his internet friends.. We all can make judgments on its value, need, and speakers-under-bill appearance. We don't need to actually try one to make those calls. It's kind of like how we don't need to meet someone to judge whether or not to trust a reviewer who wasn't upfront that he could make or lose money if the brand is successful or fails. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBerel Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 From bankruptcy to now they have improved year after year. Taking things out of context is not helping your stupidity argument. But either way I am happy with today’s results. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk My target 1.50 euros Ya know, this is getting pretty bizarre even for shills. These guys are heralding the rise of Atari like a Phoenix from the ashes by sighting it's stock price improving year after year. From 10.60 to 20 cents, never rising above a buck/euro to an all time recent high of 50 some cents. Yeah that's a pretty meteoric year after year increase. I'd be tempted to say these two don't really own anything in Atari because they clearly have no financial sense. Then it occurs to me these two are probably on the board of Atari. That clicks right into place. They're exactly as clueless as you would expect, and hoping their worthless stock becomes worth something again, which is what I think the entire tease marketing effort was about all along. I think you guys have been conversing with the actual men behind the curtain for some time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schizophretard Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 If we can't make judgements about the hat unless we try it then how are we suppose to make a decision to buy it? 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+frankodragon Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I think after reading this article, it makes us think, for the most of us, about what we don't want to become if we buy one of these speakerhats. I mean, who wants some big, burly guy who smells like he hasn't showered for a while to punch you in the face just because he doesn't enjoy the music blared in his general direction? https://gizmodo.com/ataris-speakerhat-is-the-asshat-asshats-have-been-waiti-1797088671 If you don't want to know what we don't want to become, don't click the spoiler.

Flojomojo Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I just checked AtariLife because of dubsy...not to buy anything, of course, just to laugh and point. Speaker Hats are back up to $129.99, except for the "limited edition" (come on, any physical good is 'limited') Blade Runner 2049 hats, which are $99.99. Still a dumb product, still too much money. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+frankodragon Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 You probably can make your own speakerhat much cheaper than what they're selling: https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?initiative_id=SC_20180123041315&SearchText=speaker+hat&g=y&misspellText=speakerhat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinks Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Stop judging...you don't own one. I don't own lots of stuff cause I think it is overpriced and stupid not just your 130usd hat that happens to have speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be tempted to say these two don't really own anything in Atari because they clearly have no financial sense. They went bankrupt. They acquired a lot of debt and a big hole to dig out of. Their stock plummeted and flatlined for years. We didn't say their stock numbers were improving year after year- we said their numbers meaning the details of financial reports. The key thing to watch is that while those years passed- their debt lessened, their projects increased and their profits slowly came back positive. They are now in a much better position, and yes people that actually follow the details and have financial sense understand this. There is an entire forum in France that discusses Atari stock all day long. The value is up again this morning. They are up approx 170% from a year ago.

JBerel Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) Sorry guys- I'm not a shill. I don't work for Atari, I paid for the Atarihat- it was not given to me, and yes I put my money where my mouth is and bought stock in the company. I really think the hat is a good product. I also think the company is headed in the right direction. Sure they aren't without mistake, but as an investor I just look at the #'s. From bankruptcy to now they have improved year after year. They just released great #'s on their last report a few weeks ago. They are working on many projects, not just the box. My shares have already gained several thousands in value over the last few months and I expect that trend to continue. I agree with the other guy a few posts back who said he came here for information and discussion- instead it appears to be kindergarten kids posting dumb pictures. Seriously- what is the age demographic here? I know this is irrelevant to tacos, but bear with me. What Atari numbers look so great oh sage of the stock market?

What's that you say? Adding LEDs to a Speaker Hat could actually be a cool mod, if Speaker Hats weren't so expensive. https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/New-Design-LED-Light-Hat-Party_60009679442.html 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+frankodragon Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 What we know: The Ataribox looks like a 3D render at best, if you call it that. Anyone can render an image with a big screen television, add some shadows, etc. The video of the joystick; why is there no console there? Wouldn't a wireless joystick be needed to be pointed at a console, at least be around so it can function correctly? Where is the 'under the hood' picture? In other words, the console opened up and see the PCB boards, electronics inside? We're not "idiots." We're suspicious of anything with terms such as crowdfunding, Indiegogo, etc. Numerous posts spam on Twitter, "The Ataribox looks super awesome, can't wait to play." The Speakerhat is waaaaaaay too silly and expensive. Tacos are real and delicious. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll buy the Blade Runner 2049 hat for my son when it loses that extra 9" when it's $9.99 w/free shipping .. not a penny more.

alexkeaton Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) From 10.60 to 20 cents, never rising above a buck/euro to an all time recent high of 50 some cents. Yeah that's a pretty meteoric year after year increase. I am a Banker for 25 years and i would like to explain the background of the value for this stock. On January 21, 2013, Atari filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. The Company had a "new start" after that with fresh money. It made sense because they could use the name. Stock owners experienced their loss of their money in 2013 and after. But Investors who bought last summer because of the announcement have already doubled their money. With the past financal results it looks promising that the rate will go constantly higher on the stock exchange for the next years. With a succesful launch of a Console the rate could go through the roof like Nintendo did with Pokemon Go and the Switch Console. So i dont think it is very smart to make a facepalm. I took a quick look at the past annual reports and the numbers and the improvements looked decently good. Even without the Ataribox - There is so much Money in the Money Market at the moment. And with the global low interest rates we had for the past years and will have for the next years, the Atari share is an excellent choice for speculative oriented investors.

Thank you for the non substantive stock advice base on no market indicators or any fiduciary factors whatsoever, except for your opinion that it looked decently good when their stock bottomed out at 12 cents, stayed near the bottom for 3.5 years but has crept up a few cents over the last 6 months with their spam marketing. What bank are you affiliated with? I need to make for damn sure my money is nowhere near it. Do you understand what a penny stock is? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBerel Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 So here's the question. How is Atari getting any work done at all when 3 of their 10 employees are occupied providing stock advice and product endorsements on Atariage? Or is it Fred posting as all three of them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a succesful launch of a Console And again, WHAT information do you have that could suggest Atari could launch a console? Thats what this entire thread is about and the only people who seem to think Atari could find their ass if they sat on their hands have NOTHING to back their optimism up. Its either just wait, youll see or they have a feeling because it looks good. This is like saying With the successful launch of my soft drink that will be more popular than Coke and Pepsi combined, Ill be in great shape. The conclusion is predicated on a premise that is absurd until proven otherwise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
