It's not useless. It provides entertainment.

Why create anything when there is something else that already does the job?

I like this project, these guys are taking modern video game concepts and retrofitting them to a 25 year old system.

If I had NOS and a ford model-T, you're damn right I would see if I could hook that shit up.

That's completely irrelevant when deciding whether or not it is useful or useless.

This is EPIC WIN! 27 years after it's debut, people are STILL writing new software for it, and new hardware........

Aside from the Atari 2600, I can't think of any classic systems over 1/4 century old that is still being utilized like this.

It wouldn't surprise me to see an Atari 7800 version of it crop up sometime in the future.

Yes, there is a significant difference between something having a point and something having a use

Although the inclusion of "serving no useful purpose" seems to be wrong, the definitions seem legit

You're a little slow, obviously.

Go google "define:pointless" and "define:useless"

No need to get all pissy...
You dont have to have something to be able to be of use to have a point for it...
No offense but dont just think because one website says something means its true, do some more research...

It's not useless, or pointless.... it can be used to shock the crap out of your friends kid who thinks that only todays game consoles can do that.


I love it... in fact, I want one!
