Thanks for another conversion! I haven't been able to try it yet. I had to pack my 5200 away over the last week as we thought there might be flooding here. We lucked out this time around and no water. :)

 

I can't wait to try this as soon as I can get the 5200 out again!

I was looking at the number of 800 carts that were released and there are a number of other games that would make excellent conversions.

 

I sure would like to see Blue Max, Picnic Paranoia, Slime, Seafox, Protector II, Zepplin, and Major League Hockey. (Major League Hockey is a good choice seeing we have no hockey game for this system)

 

(A lot of these games are from Synapse and I do think that at least Picnic Paranoia and Slime did come out on cartridge if that helps)

 

What kind of time is involved with these conversions and how hard are they to do?

 

Has someone already gone through a lot of these titles and seen what would be involved in converting them to the 5200?

From what I have read here and elsewhere, MANY if not most of the "high-demand" titles have been converted over - -

Others before us have wished there was an easy list to look at for what has/hasn't been converted - -

And, I concur, it would be handy!

 

 

And, finally, just recently in the AtariMax SD card there was this interesting link to an article on the effort required to convert 800 games, to answer your "how hard are they to do" question.

 

:)

EDIT: and, for some reason, I forgot to put the link to that interesting article I just mentioned!
