The Atari 7800 Game By Game Podcast


Recommended Posts

Some of you may know already, but I am working on launching The Atari 7800 Game By Game podcast very soon!

It will be similar to Ferg's show, but not an exact copy, as there is no way I can top what Ferg is doing!

But Ferg is great and has been very encouraging as I start this.

 

I'm aiming at covering 2 games a week, except for special episodes. For the most part, I will go in part order, sprinkingly in the 3rd party games here and there. I'm also hoping for as many audio and text submissions on the games as possible!

 

I'm currently working on episode 1. For the first episode, I wanted to focus on the system itself. I'm also hoping for lots of stories from anyone who ever owned a 7800. When did you get it, why did you get, what was your first impresssions of it, that sort of thing, I will take any text or audio submissions you have. Length doesn't matter, but I do ask that you keep it family friendly.

 

You can send either text or mp3 to: atari7800podcast@aol.com

 

Thanks guys!!!!

I already put in a small Ep 0 that I hope iTunes publishes soon.

The first full episode is now on itunes. Thanks to everyone who sent submissions! I'll still take them, even if it about something already covered.

Next up will be Centipede and Asteroids.

Is there a place where we can download this outside of ITunes? I'm having problems loading the software on my PC.

Well I'm just a rookie at all of this,but I do have 3 options outside of Itunes right now.

 

The MP3 is stored on archive.org: https://archive.org/details/atari7800podcast_aol_Ep1

FYI: I am going to go every other week for now. I may go weekly in the future, but this gives me time to getting used to podcasting and growing the audience in between episodes.

 

Currently I am looking for feedback on Asteroids and Centipede on the 7800, whether you had it as a kid, or just played it for the first time yesterday. You can also give me you system memories too, if you didn't get into the first episode. You can send text or mp3 to atari7800podcast@aol.com

Gotcha!

Sorry for the delay in episode 3. It was supposed to be out last week, but my grandmother passed away last week and I spent last weekend traveling to her funeral. Episode 3 should be out soon.

 

You can also start sending feedback for episode 4 which will cover Dig Dug and Food Fight. No promises, but I will try to get it out next week to get back on schedule.
