Vic George 2K3 Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 I wonder how long ago that was being worked on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwh Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 The article states that this was made around 1984.Just another idea killed by Tramiel;could not get the unit price below $500... A lot of tech stuff is 25 to 30 years in the making before consumers ever see it.Cool idea though;Atari on the airwaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcprs1 Posted August 21, 2004 Share Posted August 21, 2004 It's funny how new things just keep popping up with the 2600. Everytime I think I had seen it all, something new comes along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 That's because the 2600 is your god and overlord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwilkson Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Check out this article. Strange wireless cartridged. Anyone ever seen one of the these before? YES!!! I have seen one of these before! It turned up in one of the CGE panels a couple of years ago. IIRC, I think the guy said it was being field tested in Indiana and it was capable of >30 kbaud at a time when 2400 baud was "SCREAMIN FAST". Wow. I hate gaming history. It's so...depressing. This and the color vectrex(which also exists as a prototype), among so many other things....... -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
