To boot anything other than 5.25 disk imageds you need to unhook the FloppyEMU from the motherboard and plug it into the the external smartport on the rear of the computer. Then as Chrisa850 said once you turn on the computer, if you get the Applesoft prompt, type PR#5 and that should boot the FEMU. If you get the check disk drive message press and hold open apple-control and then press and release reset, otherwise known as the three finger salute. That shoul boot the computer from the FEMU.

In PicoFrogger once you lose all your lives the only way out of the game is to turn the console off and then back on. I also noticed that in the main menu for the Pico 8 section there is no selection to get back to the Legends Deluxe menu. You have to select Nexus and from there The Legends Deluxe.
Just my two cents worth.

If you click on the thread that Yautja posted about Dungeon Hunt I & II, go to the last page of the thread and you'll find a downloadable preliminary manual for Dungeon Hunt I and a complete Manual for Dungeon Hunt II. Both in PDF format. Thanks for the link Yautja!

@magnusfalkirk Yes to what @Batchman said. I grew up with Atari, so I have an irrational love of playing games with Atari Joysticks! Also, the Atari flashbacks have the difficulty switches and now support paddles pretty well. I do a lot of experimenting with emulation on different devices, and IMO these Atari flashbacks do offer a very good experience for Atari 70's and 80's content. However, if I take a console on vacation with me it's usually the Legends Flashback just because it does support a ton more content and plays great with actual Sega (well aftermarket in my case) game-pads.
On the Atari units we just made a big effort to restrict most of the sections to one-button content so that if you open up a game you can pretty much be guaranteed you can play with the one button stick. I'd bet with Nexus you have the biggest collection of one-button arcade games ever identified - if that's something to brag about. I still play Arabian sometimes - but then I clear my recently played list. LOL.
Some sections (Gameboy) have never really been filled out even to that extent, and some of the newer sections were not filtered so carefully mainly because of time. I happen to really like Colecovision, so when the point was made that some games could be played better with the "up" hack I was sort of really into that idea. 🙂
@rocketfan Thanks for seconding @Batchman answer about why there are less Nintendo and Sega games in the Nexus build than in the Legend build. I've got the latest Legend build for my 50 game version if the Legend Flashback and am amazed at how many more games there are in the 1.7 version vs the 1.6. Thanks again for all you and Dr. Axxon's work

@rocketfan I have a question about the Nexus Build vs the Legend Build that has bothered me for a long time now. Why is it that the Nintendo and Sega sections of the Nexus Build don't have the games number of games in them that they do in the Legend Build? On the Nexus Build, discounting the Game and Watch, The Virtual Boy and the Pokemon Mini, the Nintendo section has 107 games. The Sega section has 98. On the Legend Flashback Build the Nintendo section has, discounting the same three sections, 2,809 games. The Sega section has 1,120. Why such a big difference between the two builds? Just curious

Downloaded the latest build and reformatting a micro-SD card to put the build on and then install in my FB9. Thanks for all of this Rocketfan, especially the ability to easily add more games on our own!

Thanks for the information. I might have to get a Fast Chip card eventually. Right now I have an Apple //c+, running at up to 4mhz and a ROM01 GS with an AppleSqueezer that is running at up to 14mhz.
-
yes, I have two Apple IIGS's so I know about the 65c816. So is the 65c802 similar?

This is W65C802
Stupid question. What is the advantage of this chip over the 65C02?

Cool! I am eager to get the FujiNet for Apple running. It is awesome on an 800XL.
You could try a passive reflector. Use some foil to make a dish and place your FujiNET at the focal point of it.
How's the Fujinet working for you with your Apple II? I switched ISP's and now the Fujinet sses my router and is able to get online. Checked out the ISS tracker. It's awesome. My only problem is trying to get the //c+ to see the TNFS server I have set up on my MacBook Pro. Of course I do have a 32gb micro-sd card plugged into the Fujinet, so it's not like I can't run games on the //c+.

To answer my own question, Penult, which is 131k and I have the demo of, runs fine on the Harmony Encore. So now time to start finding other homebrews that are larger than 32k to get and run through the Encore.
-
About three weeks ago I mailed my Harmony cartridge to Batari so he could upgrade it to a Hartmony Encore. Got it back from him Tues and I'm loving it. Just need some recommendations for homebrew games larger than 32k to get and run through this on my Sears Tele-Games Video Arcade. I would suggest that anyone who is thinking about upgrading their Harmony cartridge should send it in to him to have it done.

no, there is no delay, it's immediate

Well crap. Tried your suggestion and it's still saying 'could not open directory'

I'll give that a try, thanks

On the host list page for fujinet what do I need to name my MacBook pro that I have the tfns server configured on? Just changed my Internet provider and now the Fujinet plugged into my //c+ connects to the Internet. I have the path set using Terminal, and it is currently running, just need to know how to access it from the Apple //c+.
I've tried using the name of the MacBook, the path that the Apple II folder is in. Neither work, it tries to open it but says can't open the directory. Help Please! I'm running MacOS Big Sur on an Intel Mac.

Is this model specific? Or will this work on any old model? I was looking at the AFZ page for the Flashback 9, and I don't have the same model as listed. Also, does emulation for NES, SNES, and other consoles work?
It says it's for Flashback 9 and Flashback 9 Gold, so yes it's model specific. With this frimware update and the custom firmware NES, SNES and other console emulation absolutely works. I've been using this on my Flashback 9 and haven't had any problems.

I don't know about the Hyperkin controller but if you can find an actual Sega Genesis/MegaDrive controller they will work. I have two hooked up to my 50 game legend Flashback and they work well with it. You can use the Mode button on the side to bring up the menu to either save the game, resume or quit.

Can't set screen to 16:9 Atari Flashback 9 Gold
in AtGames Flashback and Portable Consoles

Considering the fact that all the Atari games were designed back when the standard tv was 4:3 there is no way, on any of the Flashbacks, to strech the video out to the size of modern tv's. The picture would probably look pretty horrible if you take into account the pixelated look of the games in 4:3.
