Let me know and Thanks! It’s still showing up on the store for me. Actually I just refreshed the store again on my Atari VCS and the games gone, so no it’s not showing up on the store for me anymore either. It was definitely on there earlier. I have it in my account though as I purchased it. Very strange. Edited March 24, 2023 by Atari_JaguarVCS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buescherking Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Yup, I had it in my store the other day, was thinking about buying, thought I would wait till the weekend, and Poof! gone.. It is weird, guess I'll wait some more and see if it reappears at a later time. Thanks for the Reply! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_JaguarVCS Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 The customer service team behind the Atari VCS 800 is definitely some of the best to deal with, they tend to fix things asap 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+swlovinist Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Nice to see some games still coming out on the platform. Six so far this year. I do hope that they can fix the update issue with the console so that new owners of the VCS can enjoy it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mockduck Posted April 26, 2023 Author Share Posted April 26, 2023 Released 4/26/23: Escape from PoPo $6.99 This game is built off the work of Carla Meninsky's 1980 VCS classic Dodge 'Em and takes the game from Atari and adds fuel and a graphical overlay. Gameplay is more puzzle-based to find the right path through the level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+jeremiahjt Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Did the price of the 2020 version of Missile Command: Recharged get reduced to nothing? I know it cost something before, but I picked it up last night for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't get my payment to work in the VCS store at first so I decided to grab this freebie gem and downloaded it on April 11th 2023 for free.

Mockduck Posted May 12, 2023 Author Share Posted May 12, 2023 Two things: First off, added 5/12/23: Avian Knights $21.99 A Joust-like arcade mode with online leaderboards and an eSports league tie-in! Also up to four player local co-op available. Secondly: We have our first case I think of a game being removed from the VCS Store Catalog. I am not aware of how long it has been like this, but someone mentioned recently that they were not able to find Tailgunner in the VCS Store, and I have checked and can confirm. Even though I own the game, I can't call it up in the Store to download it or re-download it. So, at least as of 5/12/23 it is not available, anyone have a better date for it? In some ways this is not surprising as the game was been removed on the PC and Oculus Go side a while back. I heard somewhere from someone that the people who made the game decided to go their separate ways. So, for a while now, it has been the only place to get the game.

Mockduck Posted June 2, 2023 Author Share Posted June 2, 2023 The first AtariAge Store games arrive on the Atari VCS! Released 6/2/23: Tower of Rubble 2600 $3.99 Amoeba Jump $3.99 Both from Dionoid Games Studio, available as physical carts for the original 2600:https://atariage.com/store/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1211 https://atariage.com/store/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1235 Amoeba Jump is a 2600 "homebrew" version of the classic (can you call mobile games classic in 2023? I think so...) indie/mobile game Doodle Jump, and Tower of Rubble is one I am not familiar with, but appears to be almost like a rhythm-based Tetris-adjacent where blocks fall from the top of the screen and you have to keep your person from getting crushed by staying on top of the pile. Very cool to see these on the VCS! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davpa from Atari had mentioned it would be released today, but I and others noticed it was available last night so, since it was available, I added it to the list and gave it a release date of yesterday.

T.A.P. Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Any hope Tailgunner could get a re-release or something? That was one I was really interested in getting, but sadly just never got around to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
