jaybird3rd Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Maybe Mike is hiding out on Baker Island (UTC-12), one of the remotest places in the world, which means that it will still be "the morning of the 26th" for him for another ~5.5 hours. Or maybe they're just waiting on the 3D renders for their new "sizzle reel." It takes time to render that much BS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh3-rg Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I really can't discuss it anymore than what I posted, i.e., system on a chip like their Genesis product, with the same potential for different form factors (console and handheld). The SOAC is still under active development. If additional leaks come from someone else, that's fine, but I obviously can't be the source of any leaks. So potentially the CC could contain multiple SoCs and have a relatively tiny FGPA to support the more archaic systems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Loguidice Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Wow so they totally kept you out of the loop on the SNES product until you asked them about it? Shame you had to find out 5th hand from someone outside the company on an internet forum about the upcoming product from a company you are supposed to be working so closely with. I'm an Independent Contractor so there's no obligation to let me in on everything right away, particularly in the case of something still being brought to a working state. There wouldn't necessarily be much for me to advise on yet anyway. Still, I was surprised since this hadn't come up in discussions in any capacity. It's definitely a good idea, though, even with the obvious lack of onboard Nintendo titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roland p Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I got a feeling it's not happening today since people discovered the truth of the prototype. Yeah, they are working on a new one that will fix the issues of their previous prototype: 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, in fairness, the guy who's interested in "old school game programming" probably isn't an idiot; he may simply be unaware of how many options we have now for developing games on just about any classic platform one chooses. So, if any of the Facebook "fans" are reading this thread, I'd simply refer them back to my earlier post and reiterate what I said there: there is nothing that the Coleco Chameleon promises to do that you can't already have. Nothing. We're all waiting on pins and needles for the Kickstarter (which is starting to look like it will never come, at least not today) because we enjoy the schadenfreude, but there's no reason for you to keep waiting. Go out and get your favorite classic system, dig into the documentation and tools, and start having fun making your dreams come true, today, on your own terms. If you have questions about how to get started, you'll find forums like this one to be a plentiful and welcoming resource! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Loguidice Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 So potentially the CC could contain multiple SoCs and have a relatively tiny FGPA to support the more archaic systems? No, it would be a stand alone console and handheld. What games could we realistically expect from an Atgames SNES Flashback? Ultimately it doesn't matter with cartridge and SD card support, respectively, but whatever is reasonably available. I recommend we stop talking about this here and someone opens a new thread. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MantaNZ Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 We should take bets. I say we'll never hear from Mike and co again. Actually, no... I say he'll pipe up and blame everyone for trying to sabotage the project and then he'll go away. I'd bet both my nuts that this thing won't get a Kickstarter campaign though.
