Think the 'mystery' Retro Games console will be atari based? (full size 400 or ST?)


Recommended Posts

based on their small to large track record, I would guess a full size Atari 400, but would like an ST since I never used those before.

 

But... from what I understand, the ST was the 'cheaper' version of Amiga games... so maybe I'm not interested....?

 

What do you all think?

Maybe a 400 or XL/XE fullsize next year after the Amiga fullsize.

I owned both but kept the ST, it had many great games - maybe Amiga had the edge on some of those, but it wasn't all about games.  The ST was an all-round better computer IMHO, had a great desktop (GEM) and lots of good software.  I used mine to run CP/M software that I needed to learn for work, later I upgraded the memory and installed a PC board add-on which let it run DOS and PC software.  Eventually at work we used MegaST systems to run Mac software.  They were also used in the music industry.
