I was really interested reading your article about Atari's financial woes. Poor Atari, controlling only 56 percent of the home videogame market. I feel real sorry for 'em. (Like boo hoo). Several months ago, I sold my Atari 2600 and bought a ColecoVision console.

SORRY, ATARI!
I was really interested reading your article about Atari's financial woes.
Poor Atari, controlling only 56 percent of the home videogame market. I feel real sorry for 'em. (Like boo hoo). Several months ago, I sold my Atari 2600 and bought a ColecoVision console. It's great—and with the Atari adaptor, I still buy an occasional 2600 cartridge, like Raiders Of The Lost Ark and Centipede, but find myself disappointed by the low res graphics compared to ColecoVision.
If Atari wants to control more of the market, why don't they start making versions of their great arcade licenses, like Dig Dug ancTBattlezone for the two other main videogames systems, Intellivision and ColecoVision? That way, they'd have the best of both worlds, making more profits from their own game consoles and the other two as well, instead of complaining of profil losses, with their arrogant nose in the air, with all this "we are superior" crap.
