[2600 VCS Adapter Mod]

Is there any way to modify the VCS adapter to work through the 5200 with a video mod? I want to be able to have both the 5200 and 2600 through the video monitor.

 

thanks!

[New Lynx game 2005?]

What happened to "Eye of the beholder" ?

[Combat 2 where to buy???]

Thanks for clearing the air on that one Curt, I should of just asked you.

[Combat 2 where to buy???]

I had express permision from Lance to produce Combat II. Yet Atari Inc. Still insisted they outright owned ALL Combat name and game rights.

[How many carts does the 5200 have?]

It was essentially by accident at a certain Classic Gaming show...

[How many carts does the 5200 have?]

Don't forget, there were 25 limited edition copies of Atari Tris released.

 

And Official Boulder Dash II will be released by March of this year!

[Mr. Do's Castle - 5200]

I have 2 robotron 2084s complete and boxed with the joystick thingys. Are they really that rare? And what about space dungeon then? it's got the same setup, big box with joystick thingys.

[ROMS for Haunted House II and Combat II]

It was not a ploy to boost sales. They are truly discontinued, and the ROM will NOT be released. And should NOT be released by anyone else. I can say no more on the subject.

[Light gun?]

To get the ball rolling, if someone comes up with a hardware lightgun package and tells me how to access it with 5200, I make a game to support it.

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

Pause is easy if implemented in the hardware. Menu have been done before, even on 2600 hardware.

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

Seems to me though, that all the talented people here at AA already have these problems and issues figured out. What happened to the 2600 on a chip project anyway?

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

Good grief Charlie Brown! Re-writing the games? Seems a lot easier with todays technology to simply create a 2600 and have it really run the original software, then they'd never have to re-write it, they would be a lot more free to use whatever titles they have avaliable to them.

 

Seems like reinventing the wheel to me. Esspecially since most of the retro gamers want the real thing.

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

What makes me mad is all these "flashback" consoles, and none of them have a cartridge port! I mean, how much harder would it have been to add one! There's plenty of games out there still. Probably only cost them a few dollars to make new ones with todays technology. Make about 10-20 different 32-in one, atari 2600 or 7800 carts and sell them as add-ons for the flash-back.

[Irata's Quest]

It's not been canceled, just delayed.

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

Duh! I did that already. Thought there was something else.

 

My 5200 already ran the vcs adapter. I was lucky enough to find one of the newer 4 ports.

(I have 12 5200s, remember, 5200 developer)

 

John

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

what mod would I need to do to my 4 port to "keep it safe"

?

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

Has anyone every built a Slam Pam clone or a 7800 with a 5200 adapter? Or a 5200 with a 7800 inside. I'm looking to consolidate space with a single system solution somehow.

 

I wonder if someone could hack a 7800 mb and stick it in the vcs adapter. Isn't that what slam pam was anyway? I thought I remember seeing that there was a finished proto found recently.

 

John

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

FINE! last question. Why doesn't it work? is there a better video upgrade?

 

thanks

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

ok, can I hack the adapter to make it work with the upgrade? Or is there just no way?

 

thanks.

 

John

[Trouble with Video Upgrade Card!]

Ok, I installed my 5200 Video (rca video and audio) upgrade in my 5200.

 

It works great! All the games are crisp and clear, but I was bumbed to discover the 2600 Adapter doesn't work on it! I can still see it on the standard cable but it refuses to go through the new video adapter. My 5200 is a 4 port. But I also have a 2 port if that would work. Any ideas?!

 

thanks!

[5200 "frying"]

So it doesn't work at all anymore?

 

Sometimes I run into issues with the 5200's ram not getting cleared and I have to turn mine off for at least 5-10 seconds before i pop another cartridge in.

[Should I get a 4-port, or 2-port?...]

Is there a hack to adapt the 4 port's power supply deal into the 2 port method?

[5200 Missing in Action?]

Seems ALL the Atari brand reproductions are missing.. Hmm..

[Superman III]

Which is why I'm so happy it got converted already. I play it all the time on my 5200. It's one of my favorites and I dont know why, I still stink at it.
