Due to the incredible demand for the retro-inspired model and overwhelming success of Atari’s VCS Indiegogo Pre-Sale campaign, Atari has announced a second production run of the wood-faced units, now called the Atari VCS Tribute Edition, as a tribute to their fans and the enduring appeal of the Atari 2600-inspired design.
CGM Writes: Going hands on with Marvel Rivals at Summer Game Fest 2024 showed us that not every PVP shooter is meant for casual players.
CGM Writes: After seeing the new PlayStation exclusive, Astro Bot at Summer Game Fest, we give our take if it truly is as joyful as it looks.
Can't wait. Can never bring myself to delete the first one off my ssd even when I need space, its that good.
I deleted it, - but re downloaded it and got another 4 jigsaw pieces yesterday!! all this news of astro made me want more. can confirm I sighed and smiled multiple times, which is more than I can say for the usual games I play (cod & GT7, which do invoke a little bit of edge of the seat excitement, but not as fun as astro)
Im excited to buy this, just a simple fun platformer. Japan/Asobi is such an underutilized team, i hope this changes that cause they've honestly produced some of the funnest platformers outside the Mario series imo. I still replay puppeteer from time to time
I was thinking about Astro Bot and games they made sort of like it in the past and it reminded me of Puppeteer.
It came out at the very end of the PS3 generation so it didn’t get much attention as PS4 was right there. They really should remaster that game for PS5 it was a lot of fun.
With Future Games Show 2024 taking place last week, certain indie titles truly managed to stand out from the crowd.
I saw some youtubers like rgt85 and dreamcastguy saying this might be scam and showed some pretty telling points as to why.
I'll wait until official release and then buy one if the reviews are good.
This is such a missed opportunity to really create a true Atari box. Meaning a unit that plays the full compliment of Atari games from the arcade and home consoles. To have all their systems represented in one would be sweet. Instead, we get.... this.
This is sounding no different than the Retro Engine Sigma which was a complete letdown and false advertising. They never even sent the right the power cord so I could never power it up. I emailed them for a replacement cord after sending pictures and they send me a euro adapter without the cord. Won't get burned again.
incredible demand and overwhelming success... sure, whatever makes you sleep well at night...
This is going to be another stepping stone on the Atari failure timeline, and it's not even the old Atari either.
I want to get this when it's bargain bin price and going out the door because there's going to be very few out in the wild, and that's all it's good for is collecting for later.
