Ya know what, if Atari is really going to back this corporately at a retail level count me in for 100.

Good luck Curt. Let's make FB3 a reality. By any means necessary.

[Shawn Sr.]

Holey shit, if this actually is getting read by ATARI and making a difference than hell sign me up for 2 units.

[doctorclu]

I'll also take 2. The Atari 800 was and is a favorite machine of mine, I would love to have some current hardware for that fav platform of mine.

[Wonder007]

count me in too!!!!

Keep up the good work guys... Atari is listening it seems, I will be going in for a meeting shortly and if allowed, I will post an update on the FB3 status...

Online petitions may make you feel good, give you that warm fuzzy feeling like your opinion matters and your needs are cared about. But the truth is its pure economics. No entity is going to sink money into a product that wont sell. And if everyone on AtariAge bought five FB3's it still wouldn't be enough for Infogrames to care, let alone afford.

Bingo, stop whining to Atari (they don't care) and look for new avenues.

Definately put me down for one!

FB3 in 2003! (06 didn't rhyme)

[gambler172]

Hi
oh yeah,i really want it.
greetings gambler172

[birdie3]

Please count me in as well.

[DarthCloud]

I have the original Flashback and the second, I would like the FB3 to complete my collection A FB2 RevC would be nice also

[Almost Rice]

I already noted if it was an 8bit I would have bought at least 3. I know I will with the specs that was given on message 425 on the other thread.

[Jubal]

I bought a Flashback, I bought a Flashback 2, and if it gets made I will certainly buy a flashback 3!

[Lord Helmet]

Sign me up for at least 2

[Atari-Jess]

I'm only saying I'd buy one here because I would.

I suppose the only reason this petition is having any effect is because Vendel himself is directing the posts to whomever. As a result, this isn't just being sent to the company, its being sent to vendel, who brings it to the company.

While I still think online petitions are bad, I will admit that this isn't quite the same.

New ATARI stock profiles have the company in some really merky waters as of May\June reports, So even if they like the idea I doubt it's gonna get out the door. It's a damn shame too. Oh well, we know Curt himself with make it happen with or without ATARI involved so I know I'm getting a FB3. Real question is who I'm buying ti from and when

There's lots of other rhymes -

FB3, whee whee!

FB3 slap my knee!
FB3 in my Ford Mercury!
FB3 can kick Bruce Lee!
FB3 aint no Wii!
FB3 I gotta pee!

That would work if they could get the Bruce Lee game on there.

[AussieAtari]

Count me in.

[Shaggy the Atarian]

I want an FB3 even more so than I wanted an FB2. So I'm in for anything to get these out, whether it's corporate Atari or via fan based channels. Some of my old Atari 8-bits aren't working that great these days.

[Drewman21]

Count me in for 2 or 3 FB3's.
I missed out on the all the Atari systems with the execption of playing a friends 2600 when I was a kid. I would love to have a updated piece of Atari hardware to play with and of course to mod. I have gotten so much out of my FB2 that can't believe that I passed up on having a 2600 for all these years. Please make it happen if arms need to be twisted or even if it has to be done as a homebrew.

Thanks for giving it a chance to happen.

[purenergy]

A Flashback 3, would make me hap-py!

[bcombee]

I'd certainly pick up a couple of FB3 units -- one for playing, at least one for hacking. It sounds like a really cool idea.

[1980gamer]

I want at least 2 as well! Please continue with this project!

I am more of a reader than poster ( writer ) So, to get me to jump in takes some doing.

Gene

[qberticus]

I want (at least) one...

[jpfalcon2003]

Me also. Last one was great. Hopefully Baby Pac-Man will be on it.lol

[YarsRevengeFan]

I would buy one as well!

I had a 400 computer when I was younger, and like a dumbass I traded it away, not realising that in the future I would be into classic gaming!
