Great ideas, a few great games, poor management (Score 1)

The Jag did have some truly great games (AvP, Tempest 2K, IS) and the Jag CD had Virtual Light Machine for playing music CD's to a trippy light show. I was at the '95 E3 to shoot videos for AEO. At the time we were shown a working prototype of JagVR. It was pretty cool, the guys from virtuality in the UK were behind it. But it never saw the light of day. They (Atari) were also working on AvP2 that would hook up the Atari Lynx (another great system) to the Jag as a "smart controller". But they didn't have the cash, developers, or customers to stay alive. Atari lost a lot of retailers and customer faith even before the Jag arrived. Many customers felt that Atari didn't support their products which translated to poor sales for retailers who didn't want to give up shelf space to Atari when Sega and Nintendo were King. But in all, I enjoyed my Jag. Esp playing my first networked (two Jags, two tv's and headphones) Deathmatch Doom games until 3am. Just like delicious dish - good times.
