GATO for the Atari 7800

Posted on October 26th, 2003 by Frank Cifaldi

Curt Vendell of The Atari History Museum has just released a binary image of a “proof of concept” version of the unreleased GATO for the Atari 7800.

GATO is a WWII-era submarine battle simulation originally designed by Spectrum HoloByte and published by Atari for the Atari 8-Bit line of computers.

Spectrum HoloByte was later purchased by Infogrames, who just recently purchased and are now known as Atari.

Right.

This particular version cycles through a series of four screenshots, and is not a playable game. It is unknown as of this writing whether or not further development was made on the 7800 version of GATO.

Download the binary from this page at AtariAge.com.
