	Atari Jaguar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Jaguar and the Lynx were the last two Atari systems to be developed, but because the company did not want any direct involvement in hardware production, they were produced by outside contractors.
		Atari immediately agreed and the system was released in November 1993 for a sale price of $249.99, under a $500 million manufacturing deal with IBM.
		After Atari was bought out by Hasbro Interactive in the late 1990s, Hasbro released the encryption coding to the Jaguar, finally opening the doors for enthusiasts and hobby programmers to make their own Jaguar games and software, similar to what has happened with another defunct game system, the Sega Dreamcast.

	Atari Jaguar CD - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The drive was manufactured for Atari by Phillips in the United States.
		Comments from Atari a few weeks after the unit was launched stated that the entire inventory had been sold, and that another batch would be ordered.
		However, with the JT Storage reverse takeover looming just a few months away, it is possible that those 20,000 drives were the only units ever produced.

	AtariAge - Atari Jaguar History
		Atari said they planned to debut the machine in 1993, and that there would definitely be a 64-bit RISC based processor at its core.
		Atari was set to market the Jaguar with a $3 million advertising budget, a telephone support line, and promised support from over 20 third party developers.
		Atari's first hit came in the form of Jeff Minter's Tempest 2000, an update to the classic game that was almost universally applauded and won several awards.

	Mark's Atari Jaguar Page: (c) 2000 by Mark Rathwell (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Atari proudly boasted that the Jaguar was made in the USA (thanks to deals with IBM and later Comptronix), hoping to appeal to the patriotic side of an American gaming public that typically purchased Japanese goods.
		Immediately, Atari took great pains to identify the many companies working on Atari Jaguar games and the list was surprisingly impressive: the number of 3rd party developers working on JAGUAR games had not been seen on an Atari console since the Atari 5200 in the early 1980s.
		Atari also announced that they were working on hardware for a Jaguar II system as well as a voice-modem and virtual reality helmet for the existing Jaguar.

	[FAQ] Atari Jaguar Frequently-Asked Questions
		Jaguar circuit boards were manufactured and assembled by an IBM subcontractor; IBM then cased, tested, and packaged final Jaguar units, which were then sent to Atari.
		Again, quoting from Jaguar designer John Mathieson, "It may be the CPU in the sense that it's the centre of operation, and boot-straps the machine, and starts everything else going; however, it is not the centre of Jaguar's power.
		The Jaguar had modified boot firmware to run the development board (the "Alpine board"), and it had a cable coming out to provide signals to the Alpine board that are not normally present via the cartridge connector.

		Atari released the Jaguar in limited quantities in 1993 with a much wider release in 1994.
		The Jaguar includes such technical features as morphing, transparency, lighting and shading, unlimited sprites, 32-bit color, and the ability to render 850 million pixels per second.
		In addition, because the Jaguar wasn't designed to push polygons as the PlayStation was, many continue to believe it couldn't keep up, even though the specifications are similar.

	JWNYC's Video Game Collection - Atari Jaguar
		Atari had very little to do with anything but the marketing - and the marketing was pretty much crap.
		The end result was that it was destroyed in the 16 bit era by the 2D prowess of the Genesis and SNES, and it was destroyed in the 32/64 bit era by the 3D capabilities of the PlayStation, Saturn and N64.
		Apparently, Atari was stuck in the 1980's (as if the whole claw-mark thing and leopard prints on everything didn't convince you of that earlier).

	ATARI Jaguar
		The 64 bit superconsole from Atari, years ahead of the competition, that was supposed to put Atari back in the market as a serious competitor.

		Of interesting note, Atari did sell a highly modified version of the Jaguar console (called the Co-Jag) to Atari Games (the seperate coinop division that warner held on to until 1995 when they sold it to Midway Games), for use in their (then soon to be) popular Area 51 arcade game.
