Atari 5200

The sound effects also in the 2600 port were also just really bad.

Later ports like the Atari 5200 version sold around 35,000 copies, which is saying something either about the Atari 5200 or about people's trust in Atari making actually decent Pac-Man games.

The Atari 8-bit line sold around 42,000 copies, and the home computer release sold upwards of 500,000 copies.

So people just probably didn't particularly buy a lot of 5200 games, I guess.

It was half done, never came out.

Home version of Last Starfighter 4, say it with me, Atari 5200, never came out.

But it exists.

It exists now.

Yeah, so if folks don't know the movie, Cloak and Dagger, the movie, I'll briefly touch on the summary of this movie because it barely has anything to do with the game.

Technically, considering how action-packed the game is, the movie's actually pretty reserved because it is very much a spy thriller in which the Cloak and Dagger is...

Like I said, it's an Atari 5200 cartridge.

It is a cartridge containing hidden government documents that some Russian spies are trying to get a hold of.

Yeah

... uh, Mario Bros was released on the Atari 2600, the Atari 5200, uh, the FM-7, PC-88, PC-8001, uh, Commodore 64, the CPC, the ZX Spectrum.

Uh, it even got a Famicom Disk System port, uh, pretty late in 1988.

Uh, and then also Atari 7800, the Atari 8-bit, and then the e-Reader.

So I don't know what that says.

But I played some X-Pac-Man on the Atari 5200.

The only thing I want to say about this is that I think the 5200 port may be one of the best ports.

This runs well and looks really good on the 5200.

Absolutely.

Then there was the Atari 5200.

This was the next level above the Atari.

I actually think I had this.

...

I have my uncle's, uh, Atari 5200, the one that I played growing up at my grandparents' house.

So that might actually be something I do in my old age.

That's, that's very achievable.
