It's good to get around. Currently hitting this, Atariage, Jaguar Sector 2, plus on a bunch of Atari and other BBS's out there. (remember those?)

Yes there are. My favorite is the Prison Board BBS

telnet://rdfig.net

On that BBS there are a lot of door games, there is the wall at the beginning where you can say hi to the other people on the BBS, and once you get to the main menu you can hit X for internet, and then either A for Atari BBS's or C for Commodore BBS's.

And what else is interesting, there is a Retrochallenge 2009 where people are having fun with retro systems for a month. They have a BBS at:

my fondest jaguar memory was when me and a bunch of friends were living in a shared house (we all chipped in for rent ect...) and almost all of them decided to move out without an warning to 3 of us, including me. i took my rent money and went and bought a jaguar, an extra controller, a case of beer, and some pizza. we got drunk, played kasumi ninja, and then the gas got turned off so we went and bought a space heater... and still kept playing kasumi ninja until the electric got turned off and the three of us were forced to move. it may not SOUND fun, but it was.

p.s. i never did learn the damn fatalities.

if i had to mention a fond moment, i guess it would be just finding a new Jag in 1997, and buying a used boxed jag for $120 with 20 games

other than that no memories at all

My fondest memory was right after I had just bought it. I think it was June-ish 2001, I was living with a now ex and I had put in an order for an air hockey table at SEARS for the previous x-mas. It had never came in so after half a year I cashed in the money and we went shopping.

I found the Jag for $25, I grabbed some games and instead of going home we went to a friend's place. I hooked it up and played lots of Cannon Fodder.

My one and only memory of the Jaguar was playing it at an underage, alcohol free dance/techno hall. They had various consoles set up to play in the lounge area. They always had Tempest 2000 on the Jag. Good times.

My fondest experience is probably when I bought the system. I picked it up when they were marked down to $30 new (I think it was the Summer of '96 or '97). I already owned a Saturn and my brother had a Nintendo 64, but the thing still impressed, even if all I had to play was Cybermorph. The best moments later on had to have been picking up a lot of great cheap games brand-new at the time and intense rounds of Tempest 2000.

My fondest memories were not buying one and instead buying some decent consoles like the PS1, Saturn and then later the N64 and Dreamcast.

I didn't buy a 3DO until much later unfortunately but its now my all time favourite console, closely followed by the Saturn and Dreamcast.
