+wongojack Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Yeah - From 2017: https://venturebeat.com/2017/07/20/ataris-new-speakerhat-blends-wearables-with-fashion/ There are a lot of posts on AtariAge about Speakerhat, but they are mostly buried in the Ataribox thread. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They bought the intellectual property fair and square. Companies are bought and sold all the time. It’s not like they stole the name and are putting out bootleg products. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was probably the reputation they got for starting kickstarter funds and then not delivering. Guess we can't say that's completely true now. We may not be getting pong on a watch, but there is now pong on a TV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 You mean air flow controlled so once it detects you're about to pass wind, the speaker turns on and blasts your favorite song to overcome the other sound? Perhaps even with built in perfume dispenser. Atari might be first to the market with a product that nobody knew they needed but could not live without once it is available. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covering up the smell of something bad? No that's the job description of the ataribox social media crew! 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cebus Capucinis Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I was thinking more an air sensing active mic that turns on and actually amplifies the sound, but if you wanna cover it up, more power to you, I guess! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TACODON Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I would have bought one but they all show out of stock! I guess only founding members got one. Are these TacoBox compatible by the way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Now I'm envisioning a sex toy based on the Atari logotype, where the middle line is extendable upwards. It would make total sense after gambling, hotels and crypto currencies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 It probably does, programmed to play jingles from old Atari 2600 games for certain types of actions. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Gemintronic Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 The AtariHat was the email they gave me after inquiring about developing games. Maybe the "VCS" is just a ultra flat hat stand for their real product? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
