How about using a 200mhz w65C02s cpu!

[(re)build a *NEW* Atari Computer?]

The only chance of us seeing another Atari computer is if somebody makes another Flashback product.

 

I remember reading how the old Atari company were designing an Omni Computer that could run 2600/5200/7800 and 800 programs.

 

Something like this could be a hugh success, the Flashback 2 sold over 800,000 units and that was only in the U.S.

 

It could also be made in many different variations such as a console, handheld, educational computer or mini laptop.

 

[Very Greatful for this Forum and the Life GOD Gave me]

I can't read to long on LCD screen Computers because they give me bad headaches

Hi Sean. I find that all TV's and computer monitors can be pretty tiring to look at.

 

Lets hope the new generation of LED-LCD monitors can provide us all with something more natural.

 

[cooperative games?]

Asteroids has a 2 player mode, not sure if you'd call it cooperative though.

 

Does Joust have a 2 player option?

[Hi-res game visual concept]

I like it

[Don't watch TV tonight. Play it!]

It doesn't work on my computer It just says Applet jstella notinited.

[Picture of 7800 scart socket]

Tried connecting it to another PAL TV and this time it was black, white and light green!

 

I thought about adjusting some of the components in the 7800 but I don't want to mess things up. Reckon I'll just stick with the 2600 cartridges (that's all I bought it for really).

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

Again not Atari, but kind of related.

I was going to buy an NTSC Colecovision and then s-video mod it as it is beyond my expertise to mod a PAL Coleco.

In the end I decided to buy a French System, RGB Scart Just need to find some games now

 

Very nice! All you need now is a 2600 adaptor

[Picture of 7800 scart socket]

Good advice guys. Perhaps the TV is only receiving a Secam composite video signal?

[Picture of 7800 scart socket]

I finally got a Secam 7800 with a scart cable (hooray!) but all the 7800 games are in black and white (boo!). Does anyone know what the problem might be? The 2600 games are all in colour.

 

BTW I'm using it with a PAL TV.

 

Thanks

[Apple "Console" coming soon....]

If Apple does make a console, then it could also be based on the iPhones ARM chip.

[Atari COSMOS]

The 8 game limit would have limited its appeal.

 

Shame it didn't have a built in clock. It would have given it a more practical use.

[Happy Birthday Atari]

Happy Birthday Atari.

 

36 years young, eh!

There's a bunch of different DOS images - no idea where I got them from.

Does anyone know which DOS was used in the original 800? And are any of them better or more compatible than others? Thanks

[Arcade Action II Console?]

Just wondering if anybody has played on an Arcade Action II console?

 

Console, 2 joypads, lightgun and 101 game cartridge.

 

[Atari COSMOS]

It was a very cool system, I've gotten Space Invaders, Superman, Asteroids, Destroyer and Road Runner to work. I have not been able to find the key sequences to football, basketball, or outlaw to get those games to work.

I'm clutching at straws here. If the Cosmos has 8 games then would it need to have 3 buttons pressed down simutaneously, like using a 3 bit sequence to create a number from 0-7.

 

Does anybody have any videos of the Cosmos in action?

 

Found a couple here:

 

The holograms look much larger than I thought they would be.

[Atari COSMOS]

The thing that puzzles me is how the games worked at all? Did the hologram slides contain rom data or was there a separate cartridge containing the game data?

[The Atari Flashback 3 Petition]

I don't think Consumer Electronics is high on Atari's priorities right now

It certainly looks that way

 

It's a real shame though. I find hardware products much more interesting than software. They probably cost a lot less to develop aswell.

[Cloak & Dagger Movie Screen Shots.]

Ah, nostaligia! I'm gonna have to watch this movie.

[Should I get a 7800?]

compatibility issues are only on about 5 carts IIRC, and it is a bit hit and miss as to if a particular 7800 will have a problem.As for carts not fitting it is a very easy fix

Robot Tank and Space Shuttle don't work on my 7800.

[Atari's Landfill Adventures, I now have the proof it's true.]

Perhaps Atari would be interested in 'un-earthing' the mystery. It could be good publicity?

[Gamecube games better on Wii?]

Quick question! Do Gamecube games look better when played on a Wii console? Is there any upscaling etc? I've just been watching a demo of The Legend of Zelda-The Wind Waker for the Gamecube and it looks pretty good.

[Looking to get my 1st 7800... what to look for?]

Did you know that the Atari 7800 is the choice of the experts
