Skatepunk60 Posted February 5, 2002 Share Posted February 5, 2002 Ive got a Tandy color computer 2 from my childhood. I dont have many games but some one told me that Atari 8-bit computer carts would work in this can anyone verify this? (Ive never seen an 8 bit cart nor do i own one) THANKS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 No, Atari 8-bit carts will not work in the Tandy, so don't get too excited. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari-Jess Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 I own both and can tell you with out looking they wouldn't even fit. But no, the processors aren't compatable Z80 vs 6502 (or that later one whatever its called i forget 650c2 or whatnot) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 Actually, the Color Computer uses a 6809 processor; it was only the "business class" machines that used a Z-80 (or better). There are some excellent games for it, but most were released on tape or disk. I honestly cannot think of any really decent cartridge-based games excent Space Assault (a Galaxian-clone). Atari 8-bit carts will not even fit into the slot. Coco carts are very wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
