Well, see, you just proved my point. With my grasp on the facts I'd make a perfect Atari CEO.

-
Necro-bump! Has this project finally died? I have never seen the 2nd volume anywhere. It's a real shame if it just never released...

-
Yeah, that's kinda what I figured. I really want to try out Missile Command TB but I don't want to shell out for a cart and a Trak Ball without playing it first...
-
I've looked around and presume the answer to be no but I'm looking for an unequivocal answer. Does the Stella Adapter support Trak Ball usage through the Stella emulator?
I can't find any info stating that it does so I presume it can't. The flip-side is I can't find anything that explicitly states that.
There's probably a million threads on this subject but I seem to be rubbish at finding information on this site - there's a lot to trawl through!
Thanks for any help.

Pay the programmers real wages thus keeping 'Activision'. Do the deal with Steve Jobs for what would be Apple and leave that business to concentrate on computers. Do the deal with Jay Miner and merge 'Apple' and 'Amiga'. Keep legacy consoles alive (Flash Back units with SD slots anyone?) - Atari's biggest asset was it's early market penetration keep the momentum of that going while developing newer iterations. Quality Control on game releases would have to be a big thing too. Price games at am impulse buy level. Create proper franchises to fuel merchandise a la Ninty... Hey, this is easy! You know, I should've been a CEO.

Er, ditto.

Go for it.

Here's a link to the adaptor page. You can order them there.

I'll take note.

Thank you.

Damn! I can't believe I missed this!! Please don't point and laugh at me...

Anyway, I'll buy the album on release. Gotta love them 2600 chiptunes.

I've looked around but the terms 2600 and homebrew are pretty generic and haven't really lead me anywhere. Anyway, I was wondering is there a section of this site or even a specific page somewhere dedicated to homebrew? I've been out the 2600 loop for sometime and while noting a fair bit of activity in recent months and years I haven't really tried any of this stuff out. Now I'm looking to give some newer stuff a blast.
Any specific place?
Thanks, PFL

Thanks for replying. I've sent you a wee PM.

-
So, can I ask what's taking so long? I'm genuinely asking. I mean, is it parts that you have to wait for? Other controllers to make up the numbers? Spray painting time? I'm just curious why months go by and there are no updates. Please don't take this as a dig. I'm honestly interested and would like to know if there's any sort of time scale that can be put on the project...

-
I just looked to confirm but I never received a PM either...

-
Just wondering if there's any news on the 7800 front?

-
Digital Press is pretty good. It may not be Ninty specific but there are a lot of Ninty geeks there and it's a pretty civil place too.

-
Just want to say thanks for this fine endeavour.

-
I would love one of these (maybe 2 if you're willing to sell them). I love the Vic, I love Sega and I love shooters. Seems like a no-brainer!

Any chance of protectors for Vectrex games?

-
I suppose the closest you could get now would be something like an 'Indie' console designed in an open source manner for indie and homebrew games using SD tech for storage. Something like a GP2X but a home console version...
-
Well, just thought I should say my one has never smelled of anything really. Maybe you've got a freak item?

Stella Adapter and CX-22 Trak Ball?
in Atari 2600

That's great! Thanks folks for the info. I'll dig out my dusty old Trak Ball this evening and give it a whirl.
