Good for you but I would hope that the new "proper" version of SG would include the original ?

I'd be happy not to see SG anywhere, really not my thing, just my feelings of course ... It's about the only LS game I did not like to be honest, loved the other 100+ games :-) :-)

SG, GR iOS, Revenge, Sheep in Space and Txk are my faves - I would certainly pay a fair sum of cash for any or all of them on my Switch

Space Giraffe in VR - holy shit would that be fun. I can still see Level 64 when I close my eyes, many many years after finishing that game.

T4K gets name checked in the interview with Michael Artz regarding the "Ataribox" on Eurogamer:

https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018 ... th-the-vcs
...we're very excited about games like Tempest 4000, which is a completely re-imagined take on Tempest.

...if you ignore or are completely unaware of Tempest 2000 and Tempest 3000 published by Atari.

To be fair, I'll give almost anyone a pass on not being aware of Tempest 3000. T2K, on the other hand, is a major part of Atari history and as well known as the arcade original.

I just had to go look- Hasbro, which if I remember right had the rights to the Atari library at the time. :)
