Atari2600Homebrew

[Necron99]

Atari2600Homebrew. is now live!

 

I made this site to document the countless after-market games for the Atari 2600 produced in Cartridge form.

 

I've pretty much exhausted my own records of information on these games, but I'm sure there is more games out there and I'm sure some of you have information that just isn't documented anywhere.

 

I'm open to suggestions on the site and taking submissions and information on titles which have missing info/scans.

I'm pretty sure my game M.M.S.B.C. has been in cart form and is still available

M.M.S.B.C. II was offered at least years ArcadeRX and is available as a ROM

Dead of Knight 2600 is in pre-release but is also intended as a cart release

This one I knew about it's on the watch list.

 

I'll add those titles soon! any better photo's or scans of the carts?

Is there any guides for submitting photos and scans? Pro tips? I'm pretty new at this! I could even submit my game Candybar as it had a release albeit EXTREMELY limited. I have the original case, cartridge and manual.

Do you only register games that make it to physical cart release?

 

My game Nitebear on Sleepystreet was produced by Neotokeo2001 but I think was not released to the general public. Do carts such as those count?

http://www.atariage....n-sleepystreet/

 

UPDATE: Less than a half-dozen for CandyBar and Nitebear on Sleepystreet so they probably don't qualify.

[Necron99]

I'll take any photo of a game I don't have listed. I'm not too keen on adding one-off's but definitely small limited quantities. How many CandyBar carts were made?

 

Physical cart releases is what I'm looking for.

 

Thanks for the Dead of Knight images!

There's 2 L's in Darrell. Those are also some very early screenshots.

Looks like you got it right for my other homebrews.

Fixed! I haven't had time to write up descriptions for every game yet, so there's a few of those on the site

nice to see my two games listed.

the carts of each wasn't numbered (if remember correctly there was 50 of each and both are sold out(I do have 4 carts left one set (2k3 and 88) and two '88's ,but I have decided not to sell those)

and there are no plans for second run,but the 2k3 rom can be found on atari age under hacks, '88 rom is available via pm or e-mail to me.

and people can ask al to make a custom cart as long the original labels and instructions are used(or can be used on emu or harmony cart).

currently laserman'88 is being planned to be reworked on with more levels and more bombs thanks to the multisprite kernel (no date announced when I plan to rework it or reluanch it)

Was there a Laserman 2K3 VGS Edition released as well?

[Dan Iacovelli]

Was there a Laserman 2K3 VGS Edition released as well?

yes there was it just had different label

and there was actually a VGS edition of laserman '88 (pre-relese actually because it only had one level on it

the full version had 5 plus the 2 bonus levels, the non-cart version only had 5 levels though)

for some reason, I can't view the images they don't load?

[+Gemintronic]

That's pretty strange. They're images in my AtariAge gallery. Anyone else not seeing them? Have you tried completely reloading this topic?

 

UPDATE: Used direct links to Photobucket since AtariAge is being weird for this topic and my image gallery.

it's the label one for M.M.S.B.C. and Dead of Knight, i can see them but they don't load if I click to expand. I tried using firefox and chrome, my PC and laptop. I opened in a new page and it said I don't have permission to view the attachment.

I think you got Turbo (Hozer) wrong. it is not related to the Coleco game.

[Dan Iacovelli]

I double checked my records there was actually 25 of each of game made.

if you need a description of the games its in the instructions

Fixed that....I knew it wasn't the same too....for some reason I thought I fixed that before.

[Dan Iacovelli]

[Necron99]

keep up the good work, its incredible that the homebrew scene especially for 2600 has exploded so much

[+Gemintronic]

You might stalk http://www.rfgeneration.com for their homebrew list. VGCollect seems to have someone who has my games too http://vgcollect.com/search/m.m.s.b.c.

I did a bunch of submissions at rfgeneration. a lot of the homebrews that are there were added by me or I added additional info. They don't want submissions of hacks or reproductions even though there is a few in the homebrew section, so eventually I stopped....plus I submitted everything they needed from my collection.
