+Stephen Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 23 hours ago, Mockduck said: I have had the VCS for a couple of weeks now, and have put in about 20 hours with it. I've put together my review. No one should care what I think, but hey, that didn't stop me: Wow. I knew it would never be able to do 4k in any games, but the fact that it can't even do 4k video is hilarious. Maybe they should have just advertised the woodgrain on the front was in glorious 4k. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mockduck Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 I have created a new thread for "The New Atari VCS FAQ" which is meant to potentially be stickied at the top of the forums, or at least maintained fresh anew with an emphasis on information only over discussion. I'd say keep this thread for the current whatever this is, but I will defer to the mods and AA peeps on that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've pinned the new thread, and I also renamed this one to avoid confusion between the two, as I mentioned earlier. This thread is available for opinionated discussion, so let's keep those discussions here and NOT in the new FAQ thread. 8 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wizzard Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) Just want to say that I tried Xbox 360 style controller and it works good with Atari OS seems to be the same hardware as official Atari modern controller, the same buttons.

And I guess I've been out of the loop, I didn't realize it was a $400 system. I kept thinking $249.99. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, after installing Windows not bad actually, maybe not worth compared to other options but for those who already have one or are dead set on getting it regardless I am sure they wont be too disappointed: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
