The Atari Video Club (AVC) was been a major supporter of every Jagfest. Atari Video Club writes the annual Atari Jagfest Fanzine and created the "Beyond Tempest" edition for the show. AVC also produces a Fanzine for all Atari fans throughout the year.

The GOAT Store, LLC served as the organizers for Jagfest 2K1 and donated countless prizes, including one of their Jaguar JAMMA Joysticks. With over 3000 unique products in stock, if you are looking for a rare game to complete your collection or an old favorite just to play again, you can find it at the GOAT Store, LLC. They are Your One-Stop Classic Gaming Shop!

>Good Deal Games is the host of a Web site featuring video game music, cartoons, audio interviews, trivia, classic video game advertisements and more. Good Deal Games has also recently released two Sega CD games: "Bug Blasters: The Exterminators" and "Star Strike". The company is headed up by a group of individuals so devoted to gaming that every cent of profit that Good Deal Games has earned is used to make the company grow.

Jeff Minter was the mastermind behind some of the most popular classic game updates. He single-handedly made the Jaguar into a force by creating "Tempest 2000," following it up with another game that gave a nod to the video games of old, "Defender 2000." While "Defender 2000" wasn't as well received as "Tempest 2000," they are both considered some of the best games for the Jaguar. "Tempest 3000" was released just before Jagfest 2K1 by Llamasoft for NUON Enhanced DVD players.

Protom Multimedia are the creators of new and exciting online and off-line multimedia programs. Currently, the company is directing their focus toward business oriented programs. The company is run by gaming enthusiasts with an avid interest in the Atari Jaguar, and they felt it would be an honor to help Jagfest 2K1: Beyond Tempest grow.

ScatoLOGIC is the company behind the release of "Battlesphere" for the Jaguar. Since Battlesphere's release, it has become the most sought after Jaguar game. Hidden inside Battlesphere is the key to the Jaguar Unmodified Game Server (JUGS). The Jaguar Unmodified Game Server is a way to play exciting new Jaguar games on your Jaguar without having to convert your existing system.

Songbird Productions, the most prolific Atari Jaguar developer in recent years, will be on hand at Jagfest 2K1: Beyond Tempest. Carl Forhan established Songbird Productions a few years ago as an outlet to publish the Lynx games he wrote. Who could have known that soon thereafter Songbird Productions would have published four impressive Jaguar titles as well as countless quality Lynx games?

The first company that refused to give up on the Jaguar released six titles for the system after Atari had pulled the plug. Those games, "Zero 5," "Breakout 2000," "Iron Soldier 2," "World Tour Racing," "Towers 2" and "WORMS" are known among Jaguar fans as many of the best titles for the system. Telegames also released "Brutal Sports Football," which has become a cult classic on the Jaguar, and "International Sensible Soccer," as well as countless games for other classic video game systems.
