Topic: Atari Jaguar

Do you think the Jaguar should come to the Virtual Console? It has a relatively small library of only 67 games, plus 14 on Atari CD.

It'd at least give them something to do.

Considering that Atari has shown no interest whatsoever in bringing any of their games to the VC, I'd say that's highly unlikely.

Have you ever played a Jaguar? It's pretty bad. I don't know how they would simulate the touch tone pad on the Classic Controller.

Not all the games made extensive use of the numeric keypad and yeah, there's only a few games I would own if I were to buy one again (which I'm actually considering): Tempest 2000, Defender 2000, Iron Soldier and Wolfenstein 3D (the Jag had the best version on home console - pretty much identical to the PC original).

To be honest I'd find it easier to believe a compilation cart was coming out for the DS (Atari Greatest Hits Volume 3)!

Got one of these in my attic, which is where its going to stay.

I played one years ago on display at a store called Incredible Universe. In fact I think that was the year they came out. Personally I was too impressed with it and I dont know many who were. Wasnt it waaaay overpriced compared to the other systems out at the time?

Actually, Tasuki, I looked up that the console that should not be named sold for about $700 [!!!] way back when it was first released. The Atari Jaguar sold for about $250 way back then, I looked up.

@Starboy91: AH ok I always got those two mixed up since they were released about the same time.

never played but dosent it suck

There's a few good games for it; not enough to warrant VC inclusion, probably.

Does that matter? C64, SMS and N64 each have less than twenty games on the VC.

I remember Wal-Mart clearancing these out years ago for really cheap, I wish I would have got one then

It's VERY unlikely for Jaguar games to come to VC, there aren't even any Atari games on VC.

It is better left forgotten

I suppose you're right, there's barely a handful of MSX games out for the Japanese VC. I guess I was thinking more that if an Atari console was on the VC it would probably be something with a wider audience, like the Atari 2600. Which reminds me, I need to check out those 2600 games in Atari Greatest Hits Volume 1 on the DS!
