The Atari Jaguar Thread

No problem.

Also just noticed I didn't include the original name. Andrew Whittaker is what's on the credits for the game.

LOL Yes, I was wondering what the original name was. Looks like there was a gender change. Not the first person from video games to do that. Funny enough, that was the lecture I gave today to my residents and fellows!

Here's a video from John Hancock looking at games you can play on the Jaguar using the GameDrive cart...

Now this is what the Jag needs, a new RPG!

Supposed to be coming out later this year from Songbird.

Yes, that's coming. There is new platformer being developed as well.

I hadn't seen it but it looks good. Metroid for the Jag!

TrekMD · April 29, 2021, 00:21:02 AM

Yes, it's inspired by that game.

Here is a longer video of the gameplay for Asteroite...

New Jag CD game coming out this Friday!

Only info I have is this tweet - https://twitter.com/mindthreat/status/1400217132537991183

Anybody know anything about this?

TrekMD · June 04, 2021, 03:01:39 AM

I did not. Thanks for posting about it.

Saturn · June 04, 2021, 04:12:24 AM

Never heard of it but looks... interesting

How viable is the Jaguar CD drive? I thought I had heard it was quite flakey.

Shadowrunner · June 04, 2021, 15:05:28 PM

As long as you are careful with it it's not too bad but yeah it's not the best design.

So looks like this is a match game like Simon. Only shipping to the US right now so I can't order one but supposedly there will be a way for people outside the US to order later on.
