Seems that Imagin systems corp. has used the Atari for new and greater things. Even though the Jaguar was a short lived system it can once again get "word of mouth". Now the funny thing is its a Dental Camera!!

Check out www.imaginsystems.com/index.htm for the Hotrod (Atari Jaguar) Dental Camera.

So whats next? Gameboy remotes? Dreamcast garage door openers? The future looks friendly indeed for forgotten systems.

Atari-Age contacted Imagin to find that it had purchased the molds for the Jaguar casing from one of Atari's mid-'90s incarnations some years ago. For whatever reason, after a few minor modifications, the casing proved just the right size and shape to hold a $5000 dental camera. It retains the expansion slot used to connect the Jaguar's CD-ROM expansion as an "optional docking station," while plugging the memory cartridge used to store images into the existing cartridge slot.

What they crap... I know this is off-topic, but as soon as I clicked this link some weird popup link message thing came up and scared me. First time that's happened...

They should have things at the dentist where you can play videogames while being worked on.

Why is a certificate pop up showing upon opening of the thread?



Ok, Cobra, you have an IMG tag to a site that is popping this up.

My dentist actually has Gamecubes in the rooms, as well as cable TV. He has one wavebird connected to each system. I think he has like 5 rooms, and a GC in each. He doesnt have many games and what is in there is usually what you get. Mostly family type games. But yeah. Ive never enjoyed the dentist so much before!

Me - "Aggggggggggggggggh"
Dentist - "Oh sorry did that hurt?"
Me - "No man I just died."
