I can compile the lists into a database for you. I may not be Atari savvy, but I can do some databasing. After looking at the two lists, this is the information that I see:

 

Title

Manufacture

Serial No.

Release Date

Text Only (select yes if there is no artwork)

Picture (yes or no)

Screenshot (yes or no if picture is yes)

Artwork (yes or no if picture is yes)

Colors (distinguishing colors)

Notes  

 

If these categories seems okay, I’ll be glad to compile the two lists it into an Access database if this might be of some use to you.

 

Bored,

I meant to send this privately. Oh well.

[I Want To Write A Game!]

you know asm?

 

Not a clue.

 

I've tried reading some of the more recent posts, but they seem like they are from people that are in the middle of learning, and not quite at the beginning "I have no idea what the hell I'm doing" stage that I am in.

 

Can anyone recommend a website to get started at?

 

Thanks,

rivalhunter

 

[I Want To Write A Game!]

Greetings –

 

I want to learn how to program a game. I have a few ideas, but I want to program a pre-existing idea in order to a) learn how to program and b) determine the limitations.

 

I want to program for the Atari 2600.

 

About me: I can program some VB, ASP, and can program for the Palm OS. A very long time ago (back when dinosaurs roamed the earth), I programmed for my Apple IIe as well. I need some place to start to see what I can do and how to do it. I know that the languages I know are a far cry from the languages I know, but I am willing to learn.

 

Thanks,

rivalhunter

 

[Any good Atari finds this weekend?]

I discovered this website on Thursday, and discovered that I wanted to be part of it all. So this weekend at the local flea market, I aquired an Atari 2600 and six games for $40.00(US).

 

I call that a good find! And it all works just lovely.
