Hi, I hope the XM will be shipping soon and with that shouldn't the games for it be available in the AA store. If this were to show up on my porch tomorrow, I'd like to be able to get games for it in advance so I can play them as soon as the XM arrives. I know certain programmers have had the chance to test out games and I thought most of the games are done. Just hoping to see them in the AA store soon!

That depends on how the game programmers want to release their games. Most are released by the authors directly, only a few get sold through the aa store

I think all the games should be made available through the AA store. I feel that AtariAge should gain a little profit off this venture, considering all the free publicity and forum bandwidth used here in the 7800 forum for the project. Unless of course Al doesn't care about that stuff. It sure would be easier to have a centralized place to buy the games instead of relying on numerous sellers.

I try to keep up with all the games that programmers make and put on here. Sometimes I miss certain games I would have liked to have bought. There seems to be a slight window and then, sorry you missed out. Programmers sell their games first, but then I'd like to see them available in the AA store. Seems like the 7800 games need to be updated in the store. I've seen the same games offered in there for quite a while. New games would be a plus!

Hi guys:

Just as a side note here, all of my games will be available in the AtariAge store once Al gets the time to update it.
What happens is I usually do a run myself first, and then once I run out they move over to the store.

I never try to keep anything from anyone - believe me, I want as many people as possible to enjoy the games I create. :)

I gather Al just doesn't have the time needed to keep things up to date these days. He needs help, clearly, but that's a hard thing to arrange on the net. RL comes first when it comes to stuff like this. Not a criticism, just reality.
