atari2600land's Blog - Aaron the Aardvark Redux

[RSS Bot]

So most of the time today was spent sleeping. I slept until 3pm, which gave me a total of 13 hours of sleep. While I wasn't sleeping, I worked on my Jaguar game, Aaron the Aardvark. Mostly little things, like making the walking animation for the aardvark work correctly, redefining borders - mostly of collision detection boxes, and assorted very minor details.

I have over 300 Atari 2600 games. Yet I've always been envious of photos of other peoples' NES collections, the whole long rows of games on shelving. But NES games are huge. I have to think small or else I'll run out of room, more so than I already have. I've wondered why Nintendo made those huge cartridges, yet Sega et al. made smaller ones for competing systems like the Master System.

So I have a goal of some day getting 200 Game Boy games. I'm halfway there (103 right now). So instead of having just one bin of Game Boy games, I'd have two. Unlike the Game Gear games, which take up 4. I have about 130 Game Gear games. I have duplicates. If anyone wants a copy of SML, Baseball, or Alleyway, let me know.

I just bought a copy of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes on eBay.
