Atari VCS

"Atari is a corporate and brand name owned by several entities since its inception in 1972, currently by Atari Interactive, a subsidiary of the French publisher Atari, SA. The original Atari, Inc., founded in Sunnyvale, California in 1972 by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney, was a pioneer in arcade games, home video game consoles, and home computers. The company's products, such as Pong and the Atari 2600, helped define the electronic entertainment industry from the 1970s to the mid-1980s." (Wikipedia)

Atari is now crowdfunding money to make the Atari VCS, described as a "Gaming and Home Entertainment Streaming Device with Open Platform for Creativity and Customization!"

With 14 days left on the crowdfunding-platform Indiegogo the campaign has raised 2,893,764 USD from 11003 backers. The initial goal was 100,000$. So it's safe to say the campaign has been a success! Tempest 4000 is under development for the platform by Llamasoft/Jeff Minter.

"Atari's iconic joystick is back and better than ever!" Let's hope so, because the original sucked! (I'm an x-amiga owner, so what do I know? ;)
