Ben's "Ultimate Portable" not so ultimate?

Post by dragonhead »

i was kinda disappointed when i saw that that new landscape VCSP is his "Ultimate Portable" that go so hyped up. i mean yeah, its cool and all, but i was expecting a newer-type system, or one that was hard to make portable.

what are your thoughts?

not his best, but still pretty good, IMO. My favorite atari is probably the oak one. That one looks awesome.

I'm not saying it's bad. I'm just saying it's not my favorite. It's still pretty good, though.

I think it's great. In my opinion it's his second best Atari; the Vagabond is my favorite.

It looks pretty tiny.....
But I still think there was too much hype.
I mean I was expecting a dreamcast or a gamecube awhile a go...

Oh come on! You guys on the MB knew that the portables under the "Project 42" flag were going to be Atari 2600, Playstation, NES and SNES. I cant imagine were any of you get something different from. As for hype, its Ben. I've read just about every thing on is two sites and that what he does. He hyped up the last portable, probibly just to be funny.
