Netsurfer_x1 Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Indeed! We need devs to sign on, and with a quickness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netsurfer_x1 Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Clear carts like Action 52 (NES)? That's something I'd like to do. My goal with regard to that is have a limited run of 104 (hand numbered, and maybe even autographed by myself) cartridges per volume with full (gatefold) packaging, and clear cartridge cases. Once they're gone, they're gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Of course, the ROM will be available for download, right? Limiting your audience to a total of 104 doesn't sound awesome to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glade Swope Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Combat (“27 Video Games”)* and Video Olympics (“50 Video Games”)* on one 4k cartridge - (switch to other ROM when game select goes past the last one on each) and you would have... Action '77! * - quote from the game's box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Gotta watch the dates on these posts. The last response was from 2012. Still, there is new information. Action 52 for the Atari 2600 is a worthy idea too. CPUWIZ just posted information on an upcoming board that can do 256k. That means 64 4k banks which should be enough room for at least 52 4k games. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/219144-new-homebrew-board-coming-soon/ My last question was whether we need to start a community hunt for SARA donor carts or if he managed to buy someones stash of donors. Extra memory would make my games and something like Action 52 much more awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shufflehound Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 When you consider that back in the day, individuals were given about a fortnight to create a finished game, Action 52 should be done in the same fashion, but with multiple people working on one game for only about a week before moving to the next one. It's a race of quantity over quality! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a race of quantity over quality! You're obviously talking about Agile development. For the laymen stretch = quantity and quality is something that runs.

Underground_Robot Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 This i'd like to see. Especally Cheetahmen. or Ooze myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Aye. Alas, someone revived Action 52 and is making money off of it. We'd have to change the name to "Lynxladies" or something. Time for more positive female heroes, methinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 New information: I just emailed the current IP owner of Action 52. Hopefully I can work out licensing or at least some guidelines to make him comfortable with my own homage. This process can take awhile but at least it's started!

I got the official word: THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST IN THE CHEETAHMEN AND ACTION 52 , BUT BECAUSE WE HAVE MANY FUTURE PROJECTS THAT INVOLVE THE ACTION 52 AND CHEETAHMEN FRANCHISE, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO AUTHORIZE ANY OUTSIDE PROJECTS. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS MAKE LICENSING TOO MESSY AT THIS TIME. GREG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well, that sucks but now I'm also curious as to what is it they have planned! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well, that sucks but now I'm also curious as to what is it they have planned! Everything but classic systems. Looks like iOS, OUYA, etc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubxcube Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Guess you will just have to change the name to "Action 51". Unless they are owned by King and have the rights to the word "action" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Nah. That'd kinda be flaunting it in his face. We can still do a multi cart - just with our own unique awesomeness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I appreciate how you asked the right owner. I do not like some dude gravedigging an ancient flopped video game that itself was so broken it could be called a scam that became a minor meme though. If you have no better idea than to cash in on something like Action 52 with iOS versions you better lie down and die. Theloon, just call it Active 52, Another 52, Power 52, Asswipe 52 or something and you're good. The Cheetahmen become the Jaguarmen, the Ooze becomes the Jizz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
