THX-1138 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 The company that made it ceased operating. The developers asked for it to be removed and Atari had no choice but to take it down. They can still make it available to those who bought it but cannot sell any more copies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like ill need to contact support eventually and see if they can push it to my account again for my other systems. They can do that if you already own it, contact Support on the Discord or email them. Edited May 12, 2023 by THX-1138 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mockduck Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 It seems gone, and I was not able to call it up in the VCS Store to redownload it. Seems possible that this one is indeed gone for good, which would be a shame. Don't uninstall it if you have it installed! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be the first case of a game actually being removed from sale after being in the Store. Missile Command 2020 is still available last I'd checked... What about that DOS football game?

ATekGuy Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Not sure if anyone has noticed, but Tail Gunner is listed in the VCS store for $999.99! Uhhh, what...? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To re-hash this whole fiasco, the developers of Tail Gunner had a falling out. They don't want the game to be sold in the store anymore because they don't want to worry about dividing up the proceeds. The game is there only so that people who have purchased it in the past can re-download it again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATekGuy Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 It just seems like a weird way to do that, especially since if someone fat fingers the BUY button, it tries to go though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you would need to have quite a few fat fingers to make that happen. It's more than one button press to actually buy the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATekGuy Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 No, but I did scare myself for a minute that I had pressed the BUY. 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E. King Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Looks like Atari finally fixed the VCS store to allow access to the download for those that purchased. Nice job Atari! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
