Vinny - Oops... Mom Got An Atari! 

ok

and then the threequel: whoops, guardian got a tiger game com

I want the spin-off "My uncle got a 3DO"

"Grandma got a CDi"

How about “Whoa, Grandpa go an Amiga CD32”?

Can’t wait for “Zoinks! My aunt got a Commodore 64!”

B 62 bomber, and it’s funny i say that because of hbomberguy.

I guess he can't, since Atari bought everything Intellivision related except the Amico.

His mother is very proud of him

Part of me hoped it would become a running gag, always teasing the segment and always "accidentally" postponing it at the end.

What SEGA truly wanted gamers to do all this time.

Imagine playing a game based on Hudson Hawk, but instead of Bruce Willis you're a bird.

Oh geez, grandpa provided us a Philips CD-i!

"Dios mio!!!! Uncle Johnny gave us an RCA Studio II!!!"

I got myself a 3DO a few years ago. lol

What the hell? My son gifted me an Amiga CD32?!

@@crazyluigi6664 hope she made lots of spaghetti (had to)

Wait really? That’s fuckin funny

Now THAT'S as scummy as soap scum!

I had one of those pieces of sh!t! I played Wizardry: Bane of the Cosmic Forge on it, and also a Basic game where you were a monkey throwing bananas, I think you could select the trajectory, force, etc.

And speaking of first impressions, I'm not sure there's ever been a better message to open a game with than "Press B to start and A for pandemonium."

Jillian "Jill" Taylor, wife of Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor. Daughter of Colonel Fred Patterson and Lillian Patterson (show canon). Actor's real name is Patricia Castle Richardson, born February 23, 1951 (age 73). She was a Broadway star for her early acting career before being hired to play in the movie "C.H.U.D." (1984) and then jumping over to Home Improvement at the request of a friend.

He had a problem with the supplier going out of business unexpectedly and leaving them holding the bag. The ads were never taken down so they just continue showing the storefront. Vinny said don't buy anything right now.

I had my grandpa give my zelda breath of the wild on 3 separate occasions

Lego Indiana Jones is an amazing game and I love it to death......just not on the 3DS. Xbox 360 is where it's at.

It feels like an American Amiga console to me (Amiga is already American but had more of a home in Europe). The full potential of the machine wasn't fulfilled because the hardware wasn't properly documented by Atari.

There are some other OK games on it, but yeah, nah.

THANK GOD FOR LLAMASOFT!

Tempest 2000 isn't the only awesome Jaguar game. Rayman looks just as beautiful on Jaguar as it does on PS1. Jaguar Doom was used as the base for almost every console port made in the 90's, even the beloved PS1 version! Wolfenstein 3D's Jaguar port is often considered the best version for a console of the era. Super Burnout is like Outrun but with vastly superior graphics at 60fps. If you do your research, you'll find some truly excellent games which still hold up today. Also the Jaguar's homebrew community is surprisingly massive for such a niche console.

@@AmigaHyena Alien Vs. Predator could also wotk with an upgraded system of sorts.

Atari held on because Nintendo's licensing fees were ridiculous all the way up until the Wii. The Gamecube was the first console that started seeing things level out a bit because with it you didn't have to pay Nintendo's special little factory to make cartridges. Atari originally centrally held all the licenses but let companies manufacture their own cartridges up until the Activision lawsuit where they switched, being the ones to manufacture the cartridges but sublicensing the VCS/2600 and 5200 out to the explosion of third party developers migrating from the Commodore PET and 64, Sinclair ZX81 and ZX Spectrum, Apple II, and Atari's own 400 and 800 home computers into the console sphere once Activision proved it possible. Thus causing the crash of '83. So in the end what gave Nintendo the market for the second generation of home consoles also ironically kept Atari alive.

ET was just the tip of the dickberg

It's the isometric Donkey Kong sequel we never got, it was even made by the same ghost developer behind OG arcade DK heh

Atari usually left that impression about all arcade games. Cause of the video game crash and all that.

Hydro homies devastated

Ohhh my.

Disturbing

Tbh, you got three of the 2600's best games in there

@@thestripedmenace I agree, I was lucky to have one of the best from Atari, one of the best from Activision and one of the best Arcade Conversions to the 2600 console that was a Konami game ported by Activision (at least I think they did the 2600 port). Now that I think of it, that DK Junior game might have been the 7200 version, because it looked like a 2600 cart yet only different and because I was a kid at the time it was the first time I realized Atari made consoles outside of their popular 2600 system.

@@TBoneTony I just restored a Atari 2600 Jr. Fascinating little console, and it has literally nothing inside it. It had to have been heavily discounted by 1994 to about what a Jakks Pacific Plug and Play costs at retail, let alone a thrift store.

It was a convoluted console, yeah, which is why some particularly talented programmers, like John Carmack, actually managed to get some pretty damn cool performance out of it (a smooth port of Doom), but why the average programmers went _"Oh fuck THIS, we'll make it like a SNES or Genesis game I guess."_ It has had a pretty long lived homebrew scene, probably because if you're inclined like Carmack (who thought porting Doom to it was fun), there's a lot you can make the thing do with the right effort and approach.

but what is even the point of 64 bit in the mid 90s when you only got a few megabytes of ram .32 bit was enough back then having more bits just means you can have more memory it took until the mid to late 2000s for 64 bit to become useful to gamers .it was all just marketing a 32 bit system from 2000 will beat any 64 bit system from the mid 90s and that is why we still don't got 128 bit or higher. it just makes everything more complicated without any improvements

A lot of that was attributed to how Atari marketed it in a way people would understand. Non-techbro kids wouldn't understand how it made 64 bits work unless they said two 32bit cpu's.

The graphics are really nice, and I just like the premise a lot.

It's like a quirky indie studio from the early 2010s went back in time and ported their game to an actual old console.

@@stevethepocket You could think of it like that, but Ninja Golf is a real product of its time, the 1980s and early 1990s was really the perfect cultural and entertainment climate for this sort of game. Ninjas were VERY hot shit in entertainment at the time, aside from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles you had all kinds of ninjas in movies and comics, and thus also in games, and these would very much be the stereotypical black garbs and facemask type with katanas and shurikens. Last Ninja, Shinobi, Ninja Gaiden, these are the much more well known properties but there were countless smaller ones. Even 3DRealms's Shadow Warrior was originally going for these exact trappings in its earlier development in 1992. This game was probably made from a mixture of _"Ninjas are so cool!"_ and _"Ninjas are so marketable!",_ and very possibly together with a loving parody angle of _"Hey, wouldn't it be funny if we did a ninja action game, but it's about like, playing golf?"_

They actually made a spiritual succesor with ATHF characters. Actually I think that game was already played in the channel before.

@@viejodamis09 Oh dude you're right lol, same people?

I’m glad i wasn’t born back then jesus.

not sure how this hardware works but i assume the hazards are background tiles

classic middle class mom with the "good ending". "bad ending" would be roseanne. lol

Yeah, the Atari homebrew scene really kicks ass! For all consoles!

The Videogame Crash Of 1983 sent Atari's company plummeting into a canyon and all videogames didn't sell at all through 1983, 1984, and 1985 until the NES came out and saved videogames.

@@MrWolfSnack videogames were never in any real danger of dying. People still wanted them, it was the retailers and market analysts that thought they were dead. Nintendo had to spend 2 years trying to convince them to carry the NES. Atari may have had trouble with that too. But once the NES came, Nintendo was fast to lock in 3rd party devs, and the retailers, and bully everyone else out of the market.

It's Aqua Teen Hunger Force Zombie Ninja Pro-Am

Just Jill and Al's mom.

is "milves" the proper plural form of that word??? Ive never seen it used before. Also yeah.

@@selectionn Milven

Also if not for that lawsuit which delayed 7800 until '86, it would've beat the NES to the US market by a year.

And the joystick on the early Atari systems wasn't any better, it was just a D pad with a stick in the middle.

It wasn’t worth it, at least it’s over now.

@@joshshrum2764honestly just feel bad for people who grew up with this, my mum grew up with the ZX Spectrum and those games are equally as bare bones and nothing, idk how or why anyone even bothered paying so much for consoles back then, no wonder there was a market crash lmao

And now, somehow, they are trying to make a comeback.

Great Radiohead song too.
