Atari Jaguar

I tried to play, like, you know...

It, which, which isn't, I mean, it's actually not too bad to play Cannon Fodder on, like, the Atari Jaguar.

Yeah.

But you do kind of miss a mouse.

Absolutely bombed.

Um, and it's just, is this a case of the Atari Jaguar again, promising the world and not delivering, or you know?

I think it's a case of, like, mixed identity.

It never really made itself clear what it was, never really made itself-

I've worked too hard for this.

It comes from my Jaguar collection, and I'm like...

Yeah, that's fine.

We'll make the swap.

Good job, 2016 Steve.

That was a genuine waste of your time.

Dude, love to see it, don't you? Five years ago, though, I played a really good port, maybe the best console port of Wolfenstein 3D on the Jaguar, and it was awesome.

I think about it a lot, actually.

Yeah, and there was a lot of games and IP started.

I mean, just to stick on consoles for a second, the Atari Jaguar was discontinued, the 3DO, Sega CD, and Nintendo's infamous Virtual Boy, which has had a comeback recently.

Like, as part of the Switch 2 Classics library or something, they're selling...

A Virtual Boy that connects to your Switch 2.

You will have played on this very Lynx if you saw me at Kickstart a couple of years ago.

and my almost complete Atari Jaguar collection.

We've got most of the games there.

We've got the console itself as well.

And of course, the Panasonic 3DO interactive multiplayer home console.

I want to know the person who had an Atari Jaguar CD that worked and played this on it.

I mean, you didn't have much options with the Jaguar CD.

Keaton, did you have one of those?

um so we thought a fun introduction today uh would be to talk about some fighting games and uh you know uh i see i see a game behind you right now

yes uh this is fight for life for the atari jaguar and um whenever we were talking about what games to choose we were kind of thinking about should they be like each other in some way should they and i think they should in a way um they don't have to match up year wise or console wise or whatever right um but just something in that genre right and one of the games i i thought it was fight for life um so i'm excited to talk about that

yeah and uh you would think that if you're doing fight for life you think i would pair it up with uh virtual fighter uh but that would be too easy uh no we're gonna do uh eternal champions for the sega genesis which you can't see but i am holding up the box for eternal champions um A game that was, you know, I think it's like, this is 93, yours is 96.

And they come from very, like, they're not that far apart, but they come from very different eras of, like, gaming.

Like in the Jaguar game, Fight for Life, it's pretty blocky.

It's kind of the dawn of that era of gaming.

It was also the last game for the Atari Jaguar that they published.

And Atari actually published it.
