List of Atari Jaguar games

The following list contains all of the games released on cartridge for the Jaguar.

The Atari Jaguar with the standard controller

Unveiled at the August's 1993 Chicago Consumer Entertainment Show,[2] the system was released to compete with 16-bit consoles such as the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo Entertainment System and 32-bit systems such as the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer (which launched the same year), Amiga CD32, Philips CD-i and later in its life cycle the PlayStation and Sega Saturn. The Jaguar struggled to maintain a substantial userbase during most of its life and by 1996, the system and game development for it were discontinued.

On February 13, 1996, Atari agreed to merge with JTS, Inc. in a reverse takeover,[3] which would later take effect on July 30, and on April 12, 1996, the company filed a 10-K405 SEC Filing.[4] After Hasbro Interactive acquired all the Atari assets in 1998,[5] the Jaguar and its patents were released into the public domain.[6] Since May 14, 1999, when Hasbro's announcement was made, the Jaguar would enjoy a cult following with a slew of homebrew games being developed and released.

The system's crippled multi-chip architecture that was difficult for most developers to program games for it,[7] combined with Atari's severely limited financial resources[8] and poor commercial performance in the market resulted in a limited library of only 44 titles released in cartridge format during its official commercial run, with 6 more titles released when the system was discontinued. Originally released at US$249.99, Atari dropped the price to $159.99 in 1995 for a few months before being dropped again to $99.99 for clearing their remaining inventory. Fewer than 250,000 units were sold.[9] This list does not includes games for the system's Atari Jaguar CD add-on.

gollark: I will be releasing the hash of them at some point.
gollark: Since it wouldn't work, it would be irrational to, so you shouldn't.
gollark: Doubtful.
gollark: I did. It's written inside the fully opaque (and also indestructible) concept I mentioned.
