    but that doesn't work for me


  2. I'm Looking to buy an Atari 800 computer that is in good condition and has all the cords, the BASIC cart, and either MAC/65 or atari assembler editor (optional on 6502 carts)

     

     

    I have $22 at the moment and I will have more soon.


  3. How much would an official atari heavy sixer be under these conditions?

     

    Working (plays games with no problems)

    has all switches and they work and aren't broken

    has all of the wood grain on it still

    has a/c adapter.

     

     

     

    any info would be good and Please no scammers, I'm not looking to buy right now, just wondering for future reference

    Circus Atari was quite difficult on it

     

    How could one properly play Circus Atari with a joystick??? You gotta spank that thing with a paddle! :roll:

     

    i have the manual for some reason. never had this stick, but i have the manual. it says that the stick turns so you can use it as a paddle.

     

    Unless you mean one of the Jakks with Pole Position, the 2600 stick doesn't turn at all.

     

     

    hm idk, i just have a manual for "atari joystick plug n play" and it shows how to move up and down and then it shows the stick rotating.


  5. I recently purchased "Battlezone" for my VCS. it got me wondering, if a port for the almighty Battlezone was made for the 2600, could it be capable of having Red Baron? because those are fun games.

     

    also I was thinking The Liberator arcade game should have a port for the Atari. that's an awesome game.

    and my code above was changed by me because i was tweaking to see if it would compile, so ive tried with all kinds of indentions and stuff.


  8. My two cents is ET as well. Pac Man hurts my eyes with the constant flicker and hurts my ears with the sounds. I also never had a problem with ET as a kid. Not as elegant as Adventure, but no where the train wreck of Superman.

     

    are you using an actual 2600 or playing an emulator, cus the flicker isn't as bad on a real atari and also it looks a lot better if you turn the color/bw switch to bw.

     

     

    buuuuutttttttttttt since pacman is the same everytime you play it i'm going with E.T. as well. if you know the logic and why it suck and you know how to beat it and you can actually find the call zone then it's actually not that bad.
