Developed by On5, RollerCoaster Tycoon 4 Mobile has been "reimagined" and will offer social features, leaderboards, and achievements. According to Atari, the game will offer 20 pre-designed coasters, as well as numerous attractions and features for customization. Coaster blueprints can be shared via Facebook and Game Center support.
The game will be available in early Spring, but interested gamers can sign up for updates on the game's official site to receive bonus in-game gifts. Surprisingly, the app won't be free-to-play. Atari says it'll cost $2.99 when it launches later this year.

i think part of that was the average PC at the time didn't have enough GPU power to push higher polygon models.

The 3D worked perfectly fine in RTC3! It was a little chunky looking, but it's an old game! Just update the graphics, add some features (like a prototype mode for coaster construction), and give us a proper RTC4. This thing they're doing is a bastardization of a good franchise.

Terrible news. We will never get a proper Rollercoaster tycoon followup.

Wait... Atari still exists as a business? I guess the U.S. business entity exited bankruptcy this past December, but if all they're going to do is cash in the old franchises on mobile games, that doesn't bode well for game quality.

Wait a minute, Pitfall was by Activision's David Crane (yes, the real Activision, not Bobby Kotick's adventure that started in the early 1990's).
The new US-based Atari split off from Infogrames as part of the bankruptcy emergence settlement: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/206388/Ataris_bankruptcy_escape_plan_is_courtapproved.php

Pours a 40 out into the gutter.
G'bye RCT. I'll always remember the fun times I had launching park visitors into the open blue abyss. The screams only confirming their joy to be set free. The ensuing flames as a testament to their endless courage to try again...and again...and again.
RIPRCT
