Leonard Tramiel Exclusive Text Interview - Great Atari Insight - GAMING LEGEND ALERT!

Recommended Posts

Commodore and Atari legend Leonard Tramiel kindly gave up some of his free time to answer some questions for Arcade Attack. He discusses his time working at both companies, developing the Jaguar and Jaguar CD as well as the ST and the canned Panther. 

 

He also gives an insight to working with his father, the amazing Jack Tramiel. It’s a lovely read with a true gaming pioneer, enjoy.

 

Some Amiga chat also thrown in for good measure.

It was a good little interview, though I wish he would given answers that had a lot more depth to them.  Still, it was a nice read and definitely the work the Tramiels did at Atari is underrated imo.

Q: What do you feel were the main reasons why the Jaguar failed to properly catch on with consumers?



Leonard Tramiel: I don’t think that the people at Atari, me included, really understood how to work with outside developers or their importance.

so true
