+SpiceWare Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Hmm, the letters are too big and partially obscured by the graphics. I found the print version of the page, much easier to read. CV: It will be based on the 2600 architecture, but this time we are enhancing the game experience with newer display and interfacing technologies and putting the system together into a form factor that Atari had never before delivered to gamers.Been a while since I've been in this forum - last I'd read was the FB3 wasn't going to be 2600 based... "display technologies ", "form factor" - sounds like it could be hand-held. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+SpiceWare Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Ah - the lead in question is what caused me to think it was the FB3. TE: What is this "new product"? There have been rumors that the "Flashback 3" could be based on the Atari 5200, the 7800, the 2600 again - with new games, or with some form of cartridge slot - or a magical combination of any of these three. Can you hint what the next Flashback to come will feature? In re-reading the article I see that Curt's prior response was "a new product", not FB3. Hmm - maybe the "new product" is a FB4?

Lord Helmet Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I think he might have been referring to the FB2 portable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SpiceWare Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Probably - I hadn't seen that thread as I'd not been in this forum in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
