I have paid around $12 a year for Antstream since December 2022 (day 1 of me having my VCS) and it has the arcade Pac-Man. I know it's not directly Atari but it's the second App I had on the system and I check it every day for new games. It's so cheap I consider it part of the VCS package. My system just updated. Thanks for the heads up.
Atari has not been licensing other IPs to put on the VCS afaik, and I'm not sure I would expect that to be cost effective, particularly with how terrible the 2600 version of Pac-Man is. Pac-Man has got to be a very experience IP.
i said the samething to atari the last time i let atai know my wishlist i want to see atari and namco to do parperiship because i want to see both old and new pac-man game and other bandi namco games on modern atari vcs or maybe atari can aquaire bandi namco
I'm thrilled with my 7800+! Now 100 percent of my library works! The Pause Button really seals the deal!!!
Great weekend report. Keep up the good work! And glad you could fit in drinking more coffee while giving the report. 😂

You are welcome.
Looks like a Bubsy collection is coming, but only on Steam? And no Jaguar Bubsy?
@@derekdash2179 need Bubsy on the VCS!
I'd love to see Pacman back on Atari, but I fear the licensing costs would be prohibitive. Loving my 7800+ too!

Very true, but they need to be smart about it and work out a good deal.
Figures i just flashed 4 VCS's just before this update
