pacman000 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Obviously Atari SA needs to start a 2nd Indigogo so they can afford to license Space Invaders. Repeating the past with other folk's money & all that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaysWithWolves Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 The behind-schedule, prototypeless AtariVCS NEEDS a feature that forces the player to sit within 3-6 feet of the box and few will use anyway. Or is my cynicism misplaced, AlecRob? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it happens, they'll continue the theme of using budget 3rd party off the shelf gear. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 glorfindeal 1 hour ago Headphone jacks are passe. Bluetooth audio is more than effective. At some point they'll need to come to grips and decide whether this is new or throwback, real or imaginary. Still no reason for this to exist. Meanwhile, more PS/XB AAA games are going up for prepurchase for November 2019 release. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TACODON Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 We have a rebuttal ! Though I think the real question is, can they tweak the renders to include these upgrade? Good think this is just vaporware. You can update those renders all day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBerel Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Besides, I thought there was supposed to be a fictional headphone jack in the fictional controller that was wirelessly connected to the fictional box that played fictional games.......and the Atari Vault. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+x=usr(1536) Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Hm. That didn't work as planned. Disregard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaysWithWolves Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 The modern controller might have an audio jack, but it's not specified and pictures are for illustrative purposes only. Unless I missed something, the only mention of audio or headphones is in section that is likely only USB peripherals: Or, because it's the typical Atari vaguespeak, we can imagine anything. AtariVCS must have a 9-pin serial port. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBerel Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Where will the MindLink plug in? Also, I hear it will be compatible with the Oton Ayr hovering projection system. They may need another slight delay on that one, but it's in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom_of_Krankor Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Why put up with audio issues when connecting headphones to your system when you can get the best sound around with an Atari speaker hat? 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TACODON Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 The Atacobox is truly the system of the future. This strengthens my argument that they need to include a free speakerhat with every console! It should have a badge for FOUNDERS on it. Show us the renders, ATARI! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 That's where the bluetooth comes in Which Atari* will do so much better than the competition. Assuming they bring it to market before Playstation 5 arrives. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
