On this first #Atari Newsline Publisher Spotlight (NOW in 4K), I take a look at #Mythicon, a very small budget Atari 2600 game publisher that made some waves when it began selling games for $9.95 on cardboard displays at grocery stores across America. Then, the crash happened. Was Mythicon responsible for the #videogame crash of 1983? And if not, did they steal from other games? Is there any kind of legacy that Mythicon (and publishers of games like it) left behind? Games discussed include: "Fire Fly," "Sorcerer" & "Star Fox" for the Atari 2600, developed by Bruce de Graff & published by Mythicon in 1983. This video includes opinions and discussions from widely available and free social media outlets and message boards which are not necessarily my own. Public discretion advised.
This was so last week... 🙂 On this double feature, I sit down with #Podan, who hosts the amazing #YouTube channel #ILove. We discuss many things, including his take on all things Atari (past and present), content creation, our pedantic spelling & pronunciation habits, cats vs dogs, why he loves the #AtariVCS, what else he loves and much, much more! I also show some awesome (and funny) clips from Podan's channel. It's a fun interview you won't wanna miss! (in 4K!)
