gamer1682 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Instead of being a woodgrain looking console, it should have a darth vader case, making it look cooler and popular. I just wish the Fb3 included a cart connector with it so you only needed to make a quick trip to radio shack..

The REV 3 is most likely don by now ready to ship in the new year as Curt already stated. And the Vader style case, while a good idea, still won't happen. On to the cart port...lol.. ya right...lol.. Take that trip to RS casue thats the only your getting your cart port.

carpecarne Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I so want Curt to sign in, and with a smirk, reply in this thread, "You sure? " Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/78288-fb2-rev3-idea/#findComment-955100 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feralstorm Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I doubt there would be a variation in the case design unless there was a "New version" with different games of something like that Wouldn't be all that tough to do though, since all you really need is to change or remove the veneer.

carpecarne Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I don't think they would change the outside for one simple reason: The woodgrain is engraved in everyone's memories as being an "Atari". And since this product is directed towards a nostalic video game market, they want to be able to market this nostalgia as best they can. If you really want a vader, just take it apart and spray paint it! As far as the innards that Curt said would be changed....I so pray that it's a push in slot for a cart connector. (I can't solder to save my life). Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/78288-fb2-rev3-idea/#findComment-955117 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this is just anecdotal, but I was never even aware of the "Vader" model until about three years ago.

carpecarne Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Curt: HAHA...thanks for clearing up any rumors! Thomas: thanks for making such an ADDICTING game! (presuming you made it...ja? nein?). I showed it to my girlfriend for a split second and she was hooked as well! As Nolan Bushnell said: "The perfect game is one that is easy to learn but difficult to master." If only I could play it on my real atari! Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/78288-fb2-rev3-idea/#findComment-955536 Share on other sites More sharing options...
