Atari Announces the Atari 7800+



I never would have imagined this- but Atari has just announced a new Atari 7800 console hitting the retail universe. As a long time Atari 7800 "journalist" I have covered the development and growth surrounding the Prosystem for over 20 years. The late Curt Vendel tried to make a go at something similar 15 years ago, and I wish he was here to see it. This collection features a lot of Bob Decrescenzo's work- including a few of his homebrew masterpieces, including Bentley Bear's Crystal Quest as a pack in and a new game: Bounty Bob Strikes Back!

This was an hour long podcast that ran at 1am with Jon Stoll "The 7800 Pro Gamer" and Funkmaster V in breaking news CNN style. We discuss EVERYTHING that we knew about the system, hardware and software and were corrected several times by Jon's fans live in the chat.
