Thomas Jentzsch Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 For Halo you can buy the cheapest Harmony and the cheapest (smallest) SD card you can find. This works with >99% of all existing originals and homebrews You may look for Encore if you are interested into more, coming homebrews which may utilize the extra capabilities of Encore.

JeffIrok Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 As far as size, anything over 32K can't be played from the regular Harmony cart. At the moment however, there's only one game that I'm aware that's more than 32k (it's 64k). It's called MegaBoy by Dynacom. It's an educational game, and not in English (I think it's Portuguese...?). As for any other way to tell if a homebrew won't work on the regular Harmony cart, I'm not aware of it (doesn't mean there isn't though...)

RangerG Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 If Zippy is ever released as a rom (I believe it is demo only right now), it is over 32k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah-X Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Is a 32k+ cart possible/practical for new carts for the AtariAge store, or would these big future games be emulation dependent? I've been considering the regular Harmony vs. the Encore, but I'm thinking I'd buy the cartridge for something cool like Zippy anyway, and would have little need for the encore.

Thomas Jentzsch Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 64k carts are no problem for Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
