>Atari has announced that the unreleased Ataribox has been rebranded as the Atari VCS, and they say they will reveal the date for pre-orders next month. Their wording has been interesting, as they say the "pre-order date to be announced in April.", not that it actually will begin in April. They're still being all very coy about it all.

>Originally, the Atari VCS under the name of the Ataribox was due to have pre-orders start towards the end of last year in December. This was then delayed, as Atari stated something about it missing a "key element on our checklist". We still have no idea what this was, as they're not yet saying.

Have the 4 horsemen of videogames united to finally give us that crash we've been waiting on, to finally end vidya-kind once and for all, or will this just simmer into obscurity like before? I'm excited, not for the games, no, that's unrealistic, but for the real world consequences to see how HARD they'll crash and burn.

I hope that d-pad isn't touch based, if it is, this is going to be DOA harder than the steam controller was.

It looks too raised to be a touch pad, plus I don't see why a touch pad would be concave and have those little bumps in the cardinal directions. My guess it's either going to be a clone of the Genesis d-pad, or it's going to be some awful mushy piece of shit d-pad.

Been quite a long fucking time, and I don't think people are going to take this new console any more seriously than any of the shit games they've published.

Really fucking hard to "hunt down" dependencies.

If you're building from scratch, you need the dependencies regardless of what OS you're using. You can't compile a program without having the libraries and programs that it depends upon.

Lmfao. These complaints make zero fucking sense in the context of a Linux-based ATARI. They don't make much sense in general, but they are absolutely irrelevant to the ATARI which will have its own support line and custom UI.

>It's the hipster OS for people with all day to set these things up and then hours to spend trying to hunt down dependencies.

I get it. You suck at Linux and like any good idiot blamed the tools and not your small brain.

PS: Linux distributions have a shitton of possible UIs and UI customization. Describing Linux has "having a UI" is pretty fucking off considering how the base is just a text terminal and the UIs are all shit you install on top, which vary depending on your linux distribution and configuration. You basically have zero fucking understanding of the OS.

There are linux distributions designed specifically for sound engineering and use with DAWs like Ardour if you're too stupid to compile a realtime kernel or get ALSA/JACK running properly.

Issues with sound has generally been dealt with years ago, the only problem now is with the most recent HDMI copy protection schemes on newer graphic cards to thanks to slow driver development and lack of interest. You can use a cheap USB audio out device if that's the case.

You're one of those instant gratification idiots who hates manuals, aincha? I mean, there are plenty of manuals breaking it down and explaining exactly how to do what you want for pretty much everything, but I'm guessing you opted out of the difficulty of reading manuals and learning how to do stuff, and instead opted for the much easier solution of banging your head against walls, trying weird forum advice from random idiots on the internet, improvising aimlessly in the hopes of somehow making shit work, fucking up horribly, and deciding you hate Linux because it's too hard.

Next time, try using your head. Linux is only hard if you decide to take a stand against learning how to do shit.

Maybe you've never had to work in an office with the technically illiterate or god forbid have employees like that but try teaching each one of them how to use poorly documented software that sometimes has massive changes to functionality on the whims of some developer whose paycheck isn't tied to how good his software is and you'll change your tone.

What's the point of switching to Linux for these people if they have no consideration for what the OS is about? How about they stick to Windows or use their iPads if they want to watch Netflix. It's thanks to people like them that Encrypted Media Extensions in HTML5 is part of the internet after Flash finally died out.

Hell it would probably be easier to run a Windows 10 VM in Linux to run DRM ladden proprietary software than trying to get it to run natively.

Printers and scanners yeah it's still a pain thanks to the user/groups system that doesn't allow it to be installed in a few clicks. If it's a newer wireless printer or made in the last 5 years it should work automatically though. Otherwise this site explains how to do it

Fedora is a very bad example for an idiot-friendly distro, given how anal they are about free repos; Debian too. Ubuntu is shit, but for an idiot who wants shit to just work, it makes sure that pretty much everything just works.

I run with a WM, but not a full DE. I prefer the terminal for most tasks, because it makes batch processing far easier. If I have a directory of randomly-named jpgs and I want to rename them based on their timestamps, it's far easier to do

for file in *.jpg; do mv $file $(date -d @$(stat -c %Y $file) +%F).jpg; done
than it is to do all that shit manually, and you're basically only limited by your ability to write quick one-line scripts, unlike GUI file managers. I use GUI programs for obvious things like web browsing, but file management with a drag-and-drop interface is slow and painful as fuck.

Note that I am also a professional Unix administrator and a programmer who targets Unix and Linux systems, so I'm not a typical user. I spend hours a day at work ssh'd into machines that don't have display servers, and X11 through ssh is more of a pain in the ass than it's worth; it's so much easier to just learn to use the command line right.

That said, using a command line isn't hard. With a little bit of effort, it takes only a couple hours of exploration and practice to get used to even for a non-programmer, and you never have to take advantage of advanced scripting. Back in the day, it was the only interface, and even idiot users got by with it. Just because you aren't used to it now doesn't mean that it's hard, it just means that you aren't used to it.

Depends what you want. Not as a desktop distro unless you want to put in a lot of legwork. It has nonfree repos, but by default it's free software only, and switching to enable nonfree means also manually installing all the nonfree drivers and other software you need after initial setup, so it involves two phases. It is also rock-solid and incredibly stable, and as with most very stable distros, the repos work on a freeze cycle, so you won't be getting very recent updates unless you use a decent amount of third-party repos.

As with most distros, once you get it set up, it's smoother. Debian, like Fedora, is more pain to set up, but more stable and easier to use with less background shit once you get it running. It's a very good server distro, though, and a dream to get set up for production server use. I would not recommend it to a beginner as anything but a learning exercise; it's fine for desktop use for somebody who's seasoned, but if you're that seasoned, you're already familiar with Debian and its strengths and shortcomings. It's not as rough to get into as something like Slackware, Suse (though I've heard it's easier), or Gentoo.

Forgot to mention. It's the parent of the other deb-based distros. Ubuntu, Mint, and SteamOS are forks from Debian. This doesn't mean a whole lot on its own, but it does mean that if you need configuration help or anything, most of what is applicable to Debian is applicable to those others as well (Ubuntu has deviated rather far, though).

If you use Debian on a desktop you need to switch to unstable repos, it should be still more solid than most rolling distros, but you also get all the updates you want.

Pulse is pretty necessary with multiple sound cards (I have a USB sound card attached to my laptop most of the time) or with HDMI since ALSA doesn't have any dynamic output redirection.

The dream is coming alive, guys. I have seen things you wouldn't believe… sorry for sounding like Blade Runner, but I mean it. Just two years ago, I pre-ordered 500 raffle tickets from Atari to win a subscription to a mailing list, and Atari directly contacted me because they felt I shared their vision, and boy I do! I have exclusive news for you: This new Atari machine will be more POWERFUL than Genesis and Super Nintendo combined! I know it's hard to believe, but you will see.

I'd only be interested if they were arcade ports or Atari 7800 games. Because Atari 2600 and 5200 were complete dog shit.

At least the 7800 had actual graphics and sound. 2800 was just a bunch of stupid indiscernible colored blocks going ==BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTBLEEEEEEEEEEEP==

Try Mageia Linux. It's more user-friendly and stable without going full retard.

Arch and Gentoo are both distributions geared towards advanced power users. OpenSUSE is for sysadmins and software developers. Ubuntu is supposed to be newbie-friendly, but I've gotten mixed reviews on it. The impression I got of Ubuntu is that it has the overly simplistic user-friendly way (which is supposed to handle everything) and the hard way, so when shit fucks up you're suddenly dropped into the hard way but if it doesn't then life is good.

Well, functionally it's still a debian derivative, but one thing Mint does well is the instruction manual PDF they offer. It quickly tours you through basic operations and teaches you the most useful thing in the X windowing system: The mouse copy buffer.

Pretty much any ubuntu package or tutorial will work 100% in Mint so that's a plus. Also, you get the proprietary media support packages right off the bat (you can toggle them off in the installer should you wish to, however)

It's not a theming thing. GTK+ and Qt both feel and behave differently, and their major revisions feel different from each other.

Ah, you wanted to use the Arch wiki's GPU passthrough guide, but without having to manually set up the OS?

With my computer's firmware, I have to fiddle with it every time it boots up to get it to treat the onboard graphics card as the main card.

Manjaro is basically Arch Linux, except user-friendly. It's usually fairly popular, but given Arch's love of all things bleeding edge, even if you try to run Manjaro using the stable releases from the Manjaro repository, it still isn't exactly the most stable distro around. Usually works rather well from what I heard though, and it's newbie-friendly alright. As for MX Linux, from what I can tell it can be somewhat roughly described as a systemd-free Linux Mint that uses the debian repository over the ubuntu repository and focuses on running light-weight and being user-friendly. I'd probably recommend it over Linux Mint. Debian generally has the benefit of having a massive software repository.

That said personally I tend to use Slackware Linux. First distro and favorite distro, but for a first install, it is more generally recommended for people who are technically inclined or appreciated MS-DOS back in the day. The learning curve on Slackware is exaggerated though. It's fairly user-friendly, but in the old-fashioned Linux command-line way. It is also true that learning on Slackware will teach you the Linux skills that will carry you on every distribution, while other distributions will only teach you how to use that specific Linux distribution. If you're motivated to actually learn how to use Linux itself, Slackware is probably the best distribution to start on.

>When Atari's chief operating officer Michael Arzt suggested we take a look at the ports in the back, we're surprised to find it actually weighs something: Atari knows how to mock up products.

>Less impressive is the accompanying game controller which looks like an industry-standard controller – the sort of thing you'd see hooked up to an Xbox or Playstation – but which is in reality a solid lump of plastic in the shape of a controller.

>"The traditional controller works," Arzt told us, pointing to the square-stick box with a red button that, many, many years ago, was the games controller. It's hard not to get a twinge of nostalgia.

>The red button goes down and when it does, a circle of red lights on the controller light up. The central stick moves. It appears to have a real USB connector.

>What happens if we plug this into our laptop, we ask Mike. I don't know, he says. Will it work? I don't know. If we plug it into a different games machine, will it work? No. So it's custom hardware and software? I don't know about that.

>Mike doesn't know lots of things about the AtariVCS – standing for Atari video computer system – which is odd because he's the exec in charge of it. But for those things he doesn't know, he makes up for with all the things he does know. None of which he can tell us about.

>Launch date? Can't say. Interface? Can't tell you. Hardware manufacturer? Can't tell you. Games developer partners? We're talking to people. Target market? We can't say.

>Mike explains that the situation is the hours before the final countdown to a NASA rocket launch. Sometimes, even in the last few seconds, they have to call it off because of one small issue. We point out that a games console is literally nothing like a rocket launch.

>We have to be honest, we tell Mike as he explains that AMD has offered another chip that is faster and will cost around the same and so it might shift to that chip, it doesn't sound like Atari has the slightest idea what it's doing.

>Literally across the road, companies are live demoing headsets that track your eyeballs and respond accordingly.

So will it be the same old games or are they making new modern games for it?

What has that company been doing for all these years?

Given the current market re-releasing old games as nostalgia bait should work.

actually I may have glossed over the best part

It will cost around $250

How much did an Ouya cost when it was new, like $100?

>>14526313

It's a frog company, Infogrames, that has been wearing Atari's skin for the past I don't know how long. The last vestige of 'real' Atari probably died around the same time as the Jaguar did.

It was $99, and no one wanted to pay that for an ouya. $250 is too much since a parent can just buy their kid a Nintendo console for that same amount.

Is anyone, including the manufacturers, even expecting this to be anything more than a fashion accessory console? It's not meant to play games. It's meant to sit on your shelf and look ironically retro.

Evidently, because you're a sucker. Skepticism is good, anon.

>>14524985

To be fair, we kinda assume that if you're on 8chan you are actually rather intelligent, tech savvy, and slightly hardcore. These days that assumption is no longer holding true and idiotic memelords have taken over the fort on /tech/ and are attempting to force their shit taste into /v/. So we're getting infested with retards and casuals who think they are good with computers just because they can work their way around the MS Windows control panel.

Git gud is usually the mantra of /v/, but evidently it's not for everyone here.

I like that it had a happy ending, but I also liked the bit with the raping. Only problem is Ouyachan is just going to be sitting around like a fucking bitch. At least while she was out on the street she was useful for something and was getting attention.

>Exclusives. That's the only reason Nintendo succeeded, and that's going to be the only way for Atari to succeed as well.

Except it's running Linux and games made for it, would also by extension be made for Linux?

I just threw mine in the basement. Pic related. Yes, I spent $700 on an OUYA. It was worth it though. I'll never regret it.

I fell for the OpenPandora. At least the OUYA delivered something.

It's Linux-based and they've stated at least it won't be locked out of running other code. It's effectively just a PC.

I just checked cinemassacre.com and it's still there.

Strangely, the embedded video there is from some random unaffiliated channel, but if Rolfe really wanted it gone you'd think it wouldn't be on his website that he owns.

Did he get into youtube trouble?

OUYA was just a Android set top box. The reason to buy into such platforms, even if they suck, is for the free publicity. It is a bit different when you are a small game developer. Most game sites won't cover your game, so you have to do stupid shit to get attention. Doing stupid shit happens to be something I'm good at.

>developer version

Early release works just as well.
