Chronogamer

Good info on the Adversary, a system that I knew nothing about. Seems like it was a good clone back in the day, unless it came out much later than other clones with the same innovations.

 

I've finally reached the "less than 30 years behind" mark.

 

Yeah, this chronogaming thing is depressing at times. I really value what I've learned about old systems and games, and the early history of companies such as Atari and SEGA, but man, sometimes I just want to play the latest big FPS or RPG. But then, when I do, I realize that games used to be more fun than they're now. You just get fed up in a matter of (few) days, while some years ago I'd play the same games for months or even years, and I still think of them today.

 

Well, time to move forward! Or backwards. Forward in this backward time. Meh. Next entry.

Yeah, that's a good point, though I think that the games now are extremely intricate and interesting on one level, the fact that there are so damn many games makes it hard for me to keep playing one for any amount of time.

 

That and the fact that they're so easy to come by. Waiting to save up enough money to get a new Atari cartridge back in 1982, and then hoping for a ride to Sears is a lot different than getting on Steam and having access to so many games for (the equivalent of) pocket change.

 

Onwards!

I just got one today. It like my Radio Shack Full Color TV Scoreboard 60-3055 are designed to act like TV switchboxes. Also the Color Game Action Games by Intercon Marketing uses the same MM-57100 chip and the Color Game Action Games also acts as a switchbox as well. There is a switch on the back of the Adversary that turns on one player mode. In One Player mode one controller is used to control both paddles.

Hello, fellow traveler! Nice to see you here. I hope you returned despite the absence of new content or interaction. xD I appreciate your comment. ^ ^ Also, I didn't know about that switch on the back of the Adversary. I still have mine. I'll bust it out if I ever have a girlfriend again.

Hi! My name is Evan and I have recently bought one of these for myself, I have no clue how to set it up so could you give me a little instructions on the console.
