ATARI ANNOUNCES COLLECTION OF LEGENDARY, GAMING CLASSICS WITH ATARI’S GREATEST HITS: VOLUME 1 FEATURING SINGLE CARTRIDGE MULTIPLAYER MODE FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER
Asteroids®, Pong®, Centipede®, and Missile Command® Lead Line-up of 50 Atari Classics Featured on Exclusive Nintendo DS Release, Hitting Stores this Fall
Los Angeles, CA – August 25, 2010 – 50 of the most addicting games from Atari’s legendary vault will be compiled into the must-have Nintendo DS title of the holiday season as Atari, one of the world’s most recognized publishers and producers of interactive entertainment, launches Atari’s Greatest Hits: Volume 1. The ultimate DS title for casual gamers, Atari’s Greatest Hits: Volume 1 brings together dozens of the most popular Atari arcade and Atari 2600 titles of all-time, including such blockbusters as Asteroids®, Pong®, Centipede®, Missile Command®, Tempest®, Lunar Lander®, Space Duel, Battlezone® and Adventure. This true treasure trove of timeless gaming classics will hit retail stores in North America this Fall.
In the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, Atari introduced a new era in interactive entertainment with its addictive arcade games and home gaming system. Now with Atari’s Greatest Hits: Volume 1, a retro gaming revolution will be ignited on the Nintendo DS. Each spotlighted game will feature the same pick-up and play control scheme as their original arcade and 2600 form, with modern updates to align with the Nintendo DS platform. Single card multi-player will be available for 20 titles including Space Duel and Pong with multi-card play available for head-to-head games.
This information comes from Epic Mickey creator Warren Spector…
“Yes, I have no interest on working on one offs. I want to do things that have a life beyond me, beyond the team, beyond a single game… I hope there are wasteland games featuring Mickey Mouse and also the Lucky Rabbit for years to come. We’re doing comic books and graphic novels, I want Wasteland to live on beyond this game.”
Obviously we won’t know how Epic Mickey will turn out until it’s released later this year, but I have a really good feeling about the game. Warren Spector has a great track record, so that in itself eases many concerns I’d have if this title was in the hands of another developer. If Epic Mickey lives up to expectations, I’d gladly welcome at least one sequel. Although, hopefully Spector will have a chance one day to work on a Duck Tales project!
