I’d heard about this in passing and just assumed it was another lazy rom collection, so never thought more about it. After seeing all the effort and extras that has been out into it, I’ll definitely have to pick it up! I love video game history and preservation so it’s great to see a company really put in the effort and care to present these games in an authentic way and place them in their historical context!

2:24 much like Richard Garfield interview for mtg 30 where I bought roguebook, it helps to buy as a sign of solidarity for enjoying the video. Surprised it's on sale physically at retail but not digitally. Not too big a deal though Amazon is after Christmas but I can pick up at target. 9:00 ninja golf 🙂

Bought this on the strength of this stream. Digital Eclipse and Atari deserve all the success this may bring them.

This was such a blessing for Atari to get treated with respect like this all these years later

I hope the devs see this comment: THIS IS SO AWESOME! I’m buying copies for all my friends. I hope it becomes a longtime series like Namco Museum. Excellent archival work!

I'll add to that - I'd love to get a Namco Museum version made by Digital Eclipse with this much love & detail poured into it.

This is how collections are supposed to be like 👍🏾 Well done guys 🙏🏽👍🏾

His conversation with Gerstmann on his podcast was a great listen.

Beyond incredible. Picked this up last week. Loads of fun and great history content. Thanks for putting this episode the together. The amount of consideration, detail, and care put into this collection really makes it shine.

Nice to see you again, Mike! Great work and thank you!

Sorry I missed this live, but I'm watching it now. I already ordered two copies, one for me, one for my brother. We were both kids of the 70's and grew up with ATARI. My only question for Mike..When is Nintendo going to beg you guys to make the Ultimate NES Museum Experience? I imagine they have a nice collection of stuff to scan and photograph. I'd buy it just to have clean versions of all of their 80's NES/SNES commercials. It would be an amazing thing IMO. -Matt Henzel

And thanks for all of your hard work, Mike, John, and Audi. PS: I've been friends with Frank Cifaldi since around 2001. We worked on a CD-i dumping "thing" back then.

Thanks for doing this! Glad you mentioned it on your weekly podcast!

Ohh I really like this video. Great content for the masses. Excellent job at capturing what makes videos great.

Nothing makes more sense than making video game history interactive. Amazing job!

I always wanted the Jaguar but I knew it was going to fail. That's why I only rented it. It had the potential....

Oh the nostalgia! Thanks for this episode!

Yay, that was wonderful! Let's hope for many more carefully curated collections in the future! I've purchased it and am loving it!

Truly enjoyed the stream!

A wee cameo of the kid there John!! 😂😂😂 I have purchased a lot of games based on the DF retro videos, this included. Keep up the great work guys. HI AUDI!! ✋🏻

Nice video love the indepth coverage and observations..

Audie Sorlie is the best!!! Great to know he’s back.

I was already interested in picking this one up but after this stream I know it's a must buy for me. And that collectors edition omg 🤤

What a wonderful collection, finished the timeline last week-end.

So fired up to get this, all this stuff was my childhood. For some reason I’m getting excited to buy a Jaguar though..

The games played during the stream were predominantly (or was it exclusively?) 7800, Lynx, and Jaguar. Thank you for going with more niche and more interesting choices! :-)

so much work has gone into this collection, but alas, the first video games i ever played as a youngling still elude me: "Pitfall", "Enduro" & "River Raid". is there a reason, licensing or otherwise, that these 3 games don't make it into these kinds of digital collections? was i the only one who enjoyed these games back in the day? ah well, keep up the great work!

Hard to argue against Tempest 2K for best music on the Jag. However, I have fondness for Hover Strike’s music, and Iron Soldier’s too. Partly because those were two excellent (and underappreciated) Jaguar games!

This Mike Mika is a most wholesome and pleasant fellow, I have to say!

This live steam goes perfectly with the game.

MYR is Malaysian Ringgit, the USD exchange rate is somewhere around 1:4, so MYR15 is somewhere around $4.

But why do the Turtles Lair items load in so slowly in the TMNT Collection on Switch?? Whyyyy

Enjoying this for the most part, Lynx emulator missing option buttons? malibu bikini vball can't start a new game or bring up the CD player for in game music? Seems other games may have the same issue. A few like BasketBrawl does assign buttons for what the options would be.

And yes, my atari was the 800xl playing Bruce Lee, Montezuma and river raid

My very first games console and PC.

Disagree on Imagic. They were a way better third-party developer than Activision back then, IMO! Atlantis, Beauty & the Beast, Swords & Serpents, and so many more classics!

this is what a GOTY edition should be absolutely!!

Would love remasters of the licensed ip games for the jaguar

Where did you learn to avoid the ground?

Already talking about not going "retroactively" back to this project and it's only days old.

Jaguar 2D games were chuggy like CDi? Hm, alright.... You can't run solely on 68K, you need to use the object processor/sprite engine and that has no issues updating 60FPS. It is pretty quick and powerful with sprite drawing. Slowdowns were caused by 68K limits or lack of optimizations. Nontheless, most "16 bit" Jaguar 2D games are running 60, with some exceptions. Actually there are a lot of pretty impressive Lynx games, mostly faux 3D, but also some impressive 2D scroller like the mentioned Shadow of the Beast. And there is Zaku, a fast shmup that runs 60 FPS. ;-) Lynx was very good at throwing a massive number of sprites on screen and nice to program.

If I wasn't climbing trees or playing dodge ball I got to play Atari for an hour sometimes two.

I just want to play Raiders of the Lost Ark, but know the IP would be problematic

Highlander is not an Atari Jaguar CD exclusive anymore. In early 2021 a DOS port was leaked, developed back in the day, just two months after the Jaguar CD game. It has some advantages over the Jaguar CD game, but the video quality is just abysmal.

I hope this goes on a huge sale on steam

When EA official spokespoeoe came out and said "nobody wants to play a Star Wars game as a moisture collector. Everybody wants to be a Jedi." I realized that the people getting paid millions of dollars to make sure the games are what the gamers want, don't know what the gamers want. Do I want a digital museum with high rez OG artwork and Hi-Fi OG sound assets? Hell yes I do. Where's my Serious Sam digital museum? Where's my Quake digital museum? I don't want to suffer through another action movie as long as I live. I prefer dry documentaries that could use a mundane moisture farmer.

I think it's important to be honest with ourselves about these situations. This collection is incredible but this isn't "what gamers want". This is what a select group of oldschool fans are into. If this sells a million copies it'll be considered a huge success. Disney and EA are not interested in selling a million copies of a Star Wars game. The gaming market is massive now and a big title will sell 10-20 million copies. What the majority of gamers want, no matter what we wish was true, are the action blockbusters. That doesn't mean there isn't room for smaller titles, but we're never going to get the AAA Moisture Farmer simulator unless somehow that becomes as popular as a Call of Duty game.

overlay sucks a bit tbh

Ohhhhh MAN......OHhhh Really Cool. I WANT. WHEN CAN I DOWNLOAD ON EPIC........

It is a shame we cannot get this for Nintendo as well. I hope Valve can buy Nintendo one day!
