Hensonverse Speculation and Commentary

With Atari still around ITTL here are some very basic ways that some Atari games could be upgraded:

Pitfall - Rhonda/Quickclaw (Tomb Raider)
Commando (Contra/Call of Duty)
Haunted House (Resident Evil)
Kung-Fu Master (Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat)
Kasumi Ninja
Swordquest (The Legend of Zelda/Final Fantasy)
Pong/Asteroids/Canyon Bomber/Breakout/Tempest (WarioWare Inc./Game and Watch Gallery)
Crystal Castles (Banjo-Kazooie)
Centipede/Millipede (Commander Keen)
Marble Madness (Tetris)
Gauntlet (Just expand on the 90s revival.)
Primal Rage (Mortal Kombat)

Just some bonus revival choices for you.
 
If we were to update these games, starting with Pitfall, should we focus on Pitfall Harry (insert name) or on a more grown up and sexy Rhonda (insert name)? Do we keep Quickclaw and if we do do we keep him as a coward or do we make him an autonomous or semi autonomous ally who helps with game play?

I would go somewhere in between. Pitfall Harry is the protagonist for the first half of the game, but since this game would follow a timeskip, Rhonda would be old enough to take his place after Harry gets shot in the knee with a blow dart.

As for Quickclaw, seeing Harry's injury make him down for the count would force him to act on his name and be more brutal with his paws.

Basically, Part 1 of this reboot would follow the Tomb Raider format. Part 2 would be a mix of Tomb Raider, Pokemon, and Metroid Prime.

Pokemon and Metroid how? Also if this version of the game proves successful who does the sequel focus on Harry or Rhonda?

On a semi related note with Harry being a possible shortened form of Harrison how about using Jones for Pitfall Harry's surname and if not that than Jonas?
 
Pokemon and Metroid how?
Elements of Pokemon would be in there because of Quickclaw's newfound sense of fighting prowess, a la Persian or Luxray.
Elements of Metroid would be in the Pitfall reboot because of the change in perspective. Metroid is nowadays arguably more known as a first-person shooter than as a run and gun thanks to the Prime Trilogy, while the back half of this reboot would lean more heavily on the explorer aspect of Pitfall Harry's legacy.
Also if this version of the game proves successful who does the sequel focus on Harry or Rhonda?
I actually think the sequel should focus more on Rhonda, as Pitfall Harry's time as a gaming protagonist would seem as quite old-fashioned by the late 90s, much less today in the 2020's.

Harry Jones...

That name actually befits him quite well when he's not exploring jungle ruins.
 
Having seen how big Isaac C. Singleton is I would love to see a movie with him and equally large actors like Bing Rhames, Michael Clarke Duncan, Tiny Lister, and Terry Crews as brothers with someone like Cicely Tyson as their mother.
 
Hey ExowareMasses, have you got my request for Dreamcast branding and the potential ABC-Universal logo yet?
Yes, and I'm thinking about it.

I always thought it would be in competition with the toonami channel that is in @Otakuninja2006’s timeline about toonami
