digdugnate Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 im a couple pages late to the party but this destechaz deal looks like GDC all over again. Is Fred going to bump into a Woz at a Burger King and pretend talk about the unconsole? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I think Burger King would be the wrong place to host it, rather go for Chuck E. Cheese to get the proper Atari vibes. 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woulfe Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 The Woz He hasn't done anything tech related in what seems like ages He was on dancing with the stars recently So they want to show the 'box' to The Woz Show something to the man who invented the personal computer way back when, someone who would know at a glance what does what on their bargain basement board, someone who after looking at said board would laugh himself into the next century.... Oh yeah, this can't go wrong, can it ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBerel Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Fredo needs to take a page from other marketing efforts and get a map to the stars homes so he can take selfies of himself in front of their homes and places of business.....or just outside the adjudicated minimum distance documented in the restraining orders. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaysWithWolves Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I was actually surprised, this morning, to find the conference started yesterday and ends today. According to his Twitter account, Chesnais' Kabuki theater is today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaysWithWolves Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 For legal reasons, the ATARIpocket will now be known as the "ATARIpox Pocket". Previous picture changed. For uniformity, Atari will now call its moddern console the "ATARIpox VCS". It may also be called the "ATARIpox Box". 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TankedThomas Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I've been lurking for years but finally decided to make an account, partly because of this thread. I just want to thank you all for the absolute goldmine of entertainment that this shitshow has provided. I can't wait for Atari's next milestone (which is, hopefully, showing Woz their half-baked prototype and someone recording his inevitably priceless reaction). 7 5 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
