Looking for TI-99/4A Mini Memory program

[+save2600]

Had this Centipede (or was it Millipede) clone on cassette BITD, in assembly that was specifically written for the Mini Memory cart. Was it called MiniPede by chance? Anyone happen to have a copy or a .wav of it? Down to just using cassette's on my system.

 

Also, I removed the battery a long long time ago, but forgot what it was I pulled out of the thing. Would a CR2032 do the trick? Might be able to solder in a holder for one too. Anyone do that to theirs?

 

And lastly... isn't Mini Memory supposed to come with the spring loaded dust cover? If so, mine seems to be missing. Can't imagine NOT putting it back together properly, but who knows.

It was definitely MiniPede. I used to have it on tape, but the tape got destroyed when my apartment got flooded while I was living in Turkey.

 

On the MiniMem questions: you can use a CR2032, and a lot of folks have added a battery holder over the years to make replacements easier. The spring-loaded dust doors were in a lot of the cartridges--but not all. No harm if they are missing, but they are aesthetically pleasing. TI eventually changed the case design to create a small compartment around the card edge. It reduced the part count for the cases.

No luck tracking down Minipede yet... anyone?

I think I might have tracked down Minipede save2600 - its on this attached disk

 

With mini mem cart:

TI-BASIC: OLD DSK1.MM-LOAD

 

From MM-LOAD menu:

DSK1.MINIPEDE

 

Should see a *DONE* once loaded

 

Go into Mini Memory & choose

2. RUN

 

Type START

 

Boom! Minipede
