Ah... the games list in the menu NOTES that the ST games are actually the Jaguar conversions. That answers that...

Something interesting is going on... I purchased the game, and I was going to use the various tools out there to see if I could easily extract the rom images from the game. While the game menu only lists ONE Jaguar title (Tempest 2000), there appear to be roms for Jaguar versions of Gridrunner, Llamatron2112, and Revenge of the Mutant Camels inside... two versions of the Llamatron2112 rom, actually. Now I'm wondering if these are supposed to be unlockables or if I just missed something somewhere...

I will -- I kind of got distracted with real life stuff, but I have a small backlog of "weird gaming stuff" I will process over the next few months.

I was using them in wireless mode -- I'll try it later using wired and checking the sensitivity.

... is it just me, or are the dial/paddle controls sort of horrible? I was trying out Warlords and Super Breakout, and instead of smoothly moving across the screen, my bat/paddle/shield seems to JUMP from position to position. Is this a hardware problem, inherent to this controller, or a software issue?

Ordered one of these from Costco for $49.99 -- and, as weird as it sounds, it's partially to get a legal license to some of the non 2600 titles. I remember reading the game list and finding a DECENT number of things I didn't have. I'll have to double check it later... I recently installed Retroarch on a Walmart ONN Google TV Android box, and I'm curious about performance on this thing versus that.

So, this is interesting... The game's menu has a RESTART option -- choosing it essentially sends an OPTION 1 keypress to the emulator. (If you hold down PAUSE and choose the option, the game returns to the title screen.) Option 2 isn't emulated at all, as far as I can tell, which means you can't toggle the music... nor can you flip the screen.

While I sort of understand the logic of the buttons (no full button access, just "gameplay" ones), it appears that there is no "quick restart" button as they didn't map that...

It looks like a fairly bare bones Lynx emulator, running the game. It does offer save states and is only $3... The description mentions "left and right handed controls", but I'm not sure if it supports "flipping" the screen. The emulator only appears to support a few Lynx buttons...

Ah -- the only thing on that list that I own is Aztec Challenge, so it might have been that disk.

Is there a list of titles that were released as "flippy" disks? Atari on one side, and C64 (or something else) on the other? I thought I had a few of them, but I can't find my original disks for One on One nor Racing Construction Set, and it feels like ONE of those was a flippy. I checked Atarimania, but neither game page seemed to NOTE being a flippy. Maybe I'm using the wrong search terms, but I can't seem to find a list of dual-system disk releases...

Oh, I won't do that. I should have some Atari power supplies SOMEWHERE... not sure where, though. I remember getting the C64, and it didn't have a power supply, so that helps!

PROBABLY... I'm digging through boxes and finding stuff I forgot I had. I'll check on all of these and update folks soon.

I don't know that I have extra power supplies hanging around -- I'm fairly sure these are systems I picked up from thrift stores since high school, and I didn't realize I had multiple. I always used my XEGS... I may not get to the photo part until after Christmas, but I'll check back with everyone. I'm trying to clear out a large quantity of collected-type items, so I may come across weird things as I go.

These have been stored in a back room for... several years. I'm not entirely sure how I ended up with three, and the conditions are quite variable. So this isn't really a treasure trove, but if there was a decent way to sell them I'd be open to it. I'll see if I can snap some pictures in the near future.
