We exert maximum effort in our hands-on with Atari shooter Minimum | Gaming Trend

Minimum is a mostly traditional multiplayer shooter that tacks on some fantastic features to give it depth yet still easy to approach. The title of the game alludes to its aesthetic style more than anything, which consists of mostly plain, white textures with sprinkles of colors from the likes of weapons and some unique environments tucked away in various stages, such as the exterior of a space station bathed in orange from a nearby star, perhaps the sun.

In essence, its a shell swap of the 2600+ they released previously, since they will both play the same games. I know its a bit of a stretch... but why not make a Jaguar+ that plays the Jag, 7800, 5200 and 2600 games in one? Throw in a Lynx adapter (ala super gameboy) and then you can play the portable games on the big screen too.

I can't wait to get this. Day one

That would have been ideal

In addition to that make the games built in and stuff the cartridge support.

It’s odd they skipped the 5200

So they can support it like their Ouya... I mean VCS (I have both too ugh.). No thanks. There are very few great Atari games from that era, most of the good Atari games came way later and were arcade based. So rather than get get a compilation of those games (pretty much available on any console), it's better to spend a big chunk on another console so you can stick carts of terrible games that are basically the same game with a couple changes in control direction or a sprite. Hellz nopes. You are better off spending that money on a retro/import console and building a real library, rather than another regurgitation from a company cosplaying as Atari.
