ataritiger Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) I think ? there were 3 to 6 games planned or started on Panther. One was Raiden. I think a Panther version would look JUST like the Jaguar version of that game. So, say you had Raiden, Doom, Wolf3D, NBA Jam and some 68000 games like Bruce Lee etc like 16 bit to 32bit games for PANTHER...I think that a Panther system with good simple games would have helped get ? sale$ good enough for Atari enough to announce the 64bit JAGUAR years later with AvP, Doom2, and get capcom and konami on board, treasure and others to help jag games heck maybe even probe doing mk2 too or least give more time for Checkered Flag and Fight For Life (and not treat guy like ?) to be better etc. Jaguar could have got more sales with Tempest2000 pack in instead of cybermorph (scrap it) and 3rd parties I mentioned above with SSF2T or etc then release JAGUAR CD ? with good cd games like Iron Soldier 2 and get more companies on board later in 1995 or 1996 like infamous Sega virtua racing 64 bit jag ? version with lawsuit deal or SNK games or something (like 3do had) along with packing in Myst which blew up around that time. And maybe JAGUAR 2 later with AvP2, Quake, etc in 1997 which could be backwards compatibe Panther and Jag cart system and cd system in a duo form. Maybe go in with Panasonic, Sega and Lockheed Martin for M2 with 80 games actually worked on for that and some finished are online now so I believe it. Yes they would eventually fall and be acquired by infrogames to help make Matrix games for Xbox ? but at least 1991 to 2001 could have been better. Better than saying no to NES, naming then saying no to Genesis and countless other bad decisions in 80s. I think that history would be better. I liked some 2000s Atari/Infrogames games honestly. Path of Neo was ? Edited September 5, 2021 by ataritiger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Raiden would look same as Jaguar version? Honestly Raiden looks like a low bit ST port. Panther doing 16 bit to 32bit ports like wolf 3d or doom in 1992 or 1993 would crush snes or genesis looks and feels at the time. If Panther had good games i posted, you think it could helped sales and got Atari to help announce Jaguar with more 3rd party support as well as expand Jaguar library with backwards compatibe Panther games?
