    @Ben from Plaion Do you know if Atari will be releasing new 7800 carts for it?
  2. MantaNZ
    I can't wait for mine. I know this is probably an unpopular opinion, but I'm not too worried about compatibility as I only intend to buy brand-new releases for it, which will obviously work, haha.

    Sorry, I have looked and I don't even seem to have the rom file anymore. It's out there though as I have seen it included in rom packs - there are plenty of alternatives too

    Whoa, really?

    Haha, no longer have a Jag.

    As the title says - it's the last cart I need to complete the Radofin/Hanimex/Acetronic/Prinztronic/Fountain etc. 1292/1392 game collection. I will pay very good money for a good condition, complete unit. Cheers!

    I bought two carts and adapters for myself and a friend's Fountain consoles (my friend also has a Tunix (Arcadia compatible)). Bloody awesome piece of kit! A couple of the games weren't released here - the Winter Games and tech demo really wowed me - I didn't know the machine was that capable! Thanks @Rolo - super happy with out carts!

    My cart just arrived - works beautifully on my Fountain Force 2 I highly recommend PMing Rolo if you want one - I doubt he'll make them/have them in stock forever!

    I would love to get some info/quotes from you for my article! Happy to plug the book too, of course!

    EDIT: I just realised you're looking for the Radofin one in particular. Oops! Are you still looking? The cover feature in issue #4 of NZ Retro is all about the Fountain game console (New Zealand 1292). I'm going to be shooting mine and all of the games (I have every game title boxed (the hobby module and three dual-game carts that were NZ only). Happy to send you shots - I have a pretty much brand new system in box. I teased the magazine with this and hardly anyone got it. Jesus, people were guessing Mario! Haha. I was kinda surprised as the Fountain was REALLY popular here - more so than the Atari 2600.

    WELL WHEN YOU PUT IT THAT WAY... !

    I was a wee bit angry and I take back what I said about him being a c$%t. He clearly just has issues - I have struggled with an unwell brain as well, so who am I to judge? It's clear that he's very insecure and that's really sad but there is one thing to consider - a lot of people worked with Tommy for a very long time and none of them have come out and said anything negative about him (as far as I know, at least), so he can't be that much of a horrible person to be around. I think we just have a man with some serious delusions of grandeur who thought he'd be the next console king and he went completely the wrong way about everything. I don't believe the Amico ever started out as a scam - he's WAY too vain to destroy his reputation on purpose. In saying all that, I hope there are repercussions for his (and other Intellivision members') actions. They done @$#%ed up, man!

    Hi everyone, Just thought I'd let you know that issue #3 of my little gaming magazine is available now. International orders welcome (or you can order directly from you 'local' Amazon). I know I say "magazine", but it's really a full colour paperback book. The quality is super nice - really sturdy cover and nice, thick paper - perfect for collectors! You can grab a copy from www.nzretro.com or Amazon, as previously stated. Of course, issues 1 & 2 are also available (digital versions are FREE) if you want to catch up and issue #4 will be out early January. Cheers!

    That's the one thing I believe now. They have the same legal surname, at least. If Tommy was going to fake it he would have been dumb enough to call himself Tommy Tyler. I can't believe I fell for Tommy's bullshit. I thought he was a genuine guy who wanted to make a console and he just stuffed things up. Nope, he's a blatant liar and a right C$%T. I wish I'd never given him the time of day. I'm thankful that the Amico Development team never got back to me, though (I had even signed an NDA)! I mean, I lost my initial deposit for the Founder's Edition Amico but that's nothing compared to not being paid to develop a videogame.

    Jebus - I think I'll pass at that price, haha.
