+atari2600land Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I don't know if this is documented anywhere, but I found a glitch in Pac-Man. If you press 1+9 at the title screen and then press 1+9 again, the logo gets all blocky, will stop cycling colors and the game freezes and you can't start it unless you reset the system.
