Since I never owned an Intellivision, I never heard of Shark Shark.  Looks interesting.  Looking forward to trying it.

I like the way the fireballs come slinging off that spiral when you hit the center first.

Did anyone else get a receive the email regarding the Atari VCS version of Missile Command today? I wish them well, but oh man. Compared to the upcoming Amico Missile Command, it's not looking to good. What's up with the giant hand as a cursor?

It isn't a cursor they are just showing it's touch controlled.

Wow that squid ink spoiler attack is going to be rough. If you have every played Shark! Shark! it keeps you on your toes trying to grab fish & avoid the shark - that black out is going to be terrifying. Great game play add.

How do you know that? It doesn't say that anywhere. The hand is in the same graphic style as the game and how would you have touch screen on the VCS? Aren't the VCS controllers pretty standard?

1) Skiing

My guesses on the remaining 4:
 

3) Leisure Suit Larry

4) Call of Duty

5) PUG-G

6) Halo

 

What?  Did you not hear Tommy in that he still has some big developer and system reveals?

I was close 🤣

I was actually excited for them for second - wow they are announcing their first game for the VCS! Good on them... then I scrolled down...

They are just shilling for a mobile game announcement. VCS backers can't catch a break.

Seriously, it's just a mobile game? Ok weird. I figured it was for the VCS seeing as the email said Atari VCS.

Mobile and no hand.

Regarding why Ian got so mad, all I can see from the history of this feud is that another big name among the video game influencers has sided with Amico, which makes it harder and harder to call them shills. So he yells it loud and crazy-like. Double-down Ian, double-down.

Yep a "free to play" mobile game - so you know what that means. Yet another below the belt hit to Atari backers - I wonder how many thought "wow maybe they have FINALLY turned the corner on this system". Nope, just another nut shot. :sad:

Right on. Well, the missiles in this version literally look like sperm. No thanks, I'll wait for the Amico version.
