Paul Slocum Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 It looks like it's free. Anybody in NY willing to go and try the tacos? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I'll actually be in the area, but there's no way I'm going to a pop-up "gamers lifestyle event." Dcave? More like Dbag. There can't be much crossover appeal between this e-sports stuff and the "mostly broken PC running Atari VCS emulator" scene, can there? 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Perhaps there will be both an Asteroid MMORPG and a Centipede battle royale game on display? 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+frankodragon Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 If anyone goes there, they can probably take a along a Converse shoe box boasting they have a prototype. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why two? Because they only have two that work. They sure are desperate for attention though. Much like a naughty child. Or my neighbours. 5 minutes ago, Agillig said: Well, if you're a backer, this is incredibly good news. At least until they unpack the DO NOT TOUCH signs from their case. After all, they never said it's the attendees going hands-on. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there enough room in the booth for them to sleep in it overnight? 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+thanatos Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Taco truck is coming to work tomorrow. I'll make sure to post an update. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TACODON Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 To keep this thread on topic. I had some really good taco Tuesday dollar tacos for dinner. I actually had two of them and know they did exist. But what will Atari show off? I bet they just use 2 Flashback X and hope no one notices. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+thanatos Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) Kind of surprised this hotel joke hasn't been made yet. Though I think I may have done it for a previous years' E3 post. Too old to remember. Edited February 26, 2020 by thanatos Bah this new editor confuses me. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+MrBlackCat Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Next they will announce a delay because they got a virus... like the "Core-OnAh" virus... it corrupts cores in your processor you know... but they are still working hard around the clock to get these out to the backers! Stay TUNED! Norton will have an anti-virus update for Atari in WEEKS! Not months... MrBlackCat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a classic, and clowns are appropriate for this three ring circus in the middle of the f--k up farm. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
