  1. Here's a video with great PC speaker music I made a few years of Jungle Hunt by Atarisoft (1982).. The video capture in from an original IBM PC (model 5150). For the audio, I removed the PC's cover and set a microphone right next to the speaker.
  2. It's just a matter of timing. Press up a little ways before Thor gets to the edge if I remember correctly.
  3. No problem. That is the first time I've heard of an original Defender working on an ADAM. There's probably some minor differences in OS roms in some ADAM's.
  4. It always the same problem. The game runs but a few of the controls don't work. Joystick "up" doesn't work. Right fire button doesn't work. Left fire button fires both smart bombs and lasers when it should only fire lasers.
  5. I have an ADAM compatible Defender cartridge. Possibly sold by ADAM's House (eColeco). The cart on the left was patched for ADAM by Walter's Software and maybe sold by ADAM's House (eColeco). It has one label that wraps over the top of the cart. A Coleco cart shell and the word "ADAM" replaces "Colecovision." The cart on the right was released by Atarisoft and doesn't work right on an ADAM. It has an Atarisoft cart shell and there are two labels - one on the front and one on the top.
  6. Great score! My best is 131,330 in HSC in Jan 2012 .
  7. Here's a gameplay video I made a few years ago.
  8. Nice find! I haven't been to the Ax-Man in about 25 years. I used to go there a lot in the late 1980s and early 90s.
  9. Here's ROM dumps of my Walter's Software carts. I've got a PDF of the ADAM's Desktop manual but I'm having trouble getting it added to this post. ADAMs_Desktop_version11_1991(ADAM)(Walters Software) .bin Defender (ADAM)(Walters Software) .bin SmartDSK_1989_ (ADAM) (Walters Software).bin
  10. I voted "No." It's easy to use the search engine to find the ADAM content.
  11. Here's an ebay auction in the Netherlands that includes a rare language card for Adam Smartwriter. It has a high starting price and is untested. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Coleco-Adam-Computer-Keyboard-Plastic-Bracket-Papers-Super-rare-Collector/332606209546?hash=item4d70dffe0a:g:umMAAOSwrIlatuCs
  12. Gauntlet uses Tandy graphics and only requires 256K RAM according to Mobygames. In the link below you can click on "256K" and "Tandy/PCjr" for other games that meet those specs. http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/gauntlet/techinfo I had King's Quest 4 for my 384K 1000 SL in 1989 and it worked fine. I still have it but my 1000 SL has been upgraded to 640K. There were 2 versions of KQ4 released. The most common used the SCI graphics engine and required 512K RAM which is the version you must have had. There was also a rarer version that used the original AGI engine (also used in KQ 1, 2, and 3) and required only 256K RAM.
  13. I beat the game too. So far 3 out of 3 have beat the game on beginner skill level.
