anyone use a 5200 emu on a psp or DS ? I have an Atari800 emu that I play 5200 roms on on the PSP but on the DS I do not have anything that plays 5200 roms. Anyone know of any ? Also I have a 2600 emu on my PSP because I was trying to play the synthcart but it does not work

Count me in ! I have 2 4 port systems hooked up in one room. One is in my audio rack with my PS1 audiofile CD player at the bottom of the rack is a dedicated TV for the CD display and my first 5200. The other is on my full gaming set up TV. Also have the box it came in and a Sean multi cart. Would love to see someone create a synth cart, Drum machine Cart or anything that would enable me to make music on it!

You really should post a picture of your 9 year old drawing hand label art !

Had to take a pic of this to show yall NY remembers the 5200 color skeme

Ok I know I am talking to myself here but if anyone cares to know I did get the RMT working on my psp with a Atari800 emu I can play songs that are in the files but I still can not seem to get it to make original music Anyone ...... Buller....... Buller..........

Much easier than a colecovision controller in my opinion speaking of which anyone have any quick fixes for those?

I am dying to have this as a working cart where I can make music with it on my 5200 not just listen to demo songs Anyone developing this dream of mine? I have downloaded the Atari 800 for my psp and 5200 roms work with it Does anyone know if the download on the RMT site will work on my psp?

Ok turns out 4 jays did give me REV9 one controller works great the other the joystick is all off I tried opening it up to make sure those little calibration things were at there correct positions but it did not make a difference the black wire does seem to be in the way of the joystick making the full rotation but I think that placement is normal Anyway I do not mind the 5200 joysticks that much once there working I do not regret sending the joysticks I did to 4jays but the eraser trick seems to work just as good I do have the joystick ad on's that allow me to use the big button classic joysticks in conjunction with the 5200 joystick start buttons Still have yet to try the wico ones

My nephew is hooking me up with programs for my Atari 1040st I hope to get homebrew music programs and cool games I did not grow up with one of these but now I have this ill spot for it in my studio and want suggestions of what to fill floppies with to Also my big question Do I really need double density floppy discs? and if so where do I get a box these days?

ok that makes sense because they did seem kinda flimsey but I bet they last for a long time until I have to replace them But how do I know that 4jays put rev9 in my rebuilt controllers? what do I look for ?

Thank this guy for posting this on youtube because it really does work and I kinda feel like 4 jays charged me 40 bucks to "rebuild" my controllers when in actuality they probably just went at the contacts with an eraser How can I tell if they really put in rev 9 circuit boards? I did this quick fix on my second 5200 that I put in my old room aka studio annex and I noticed that one controller erased had gold contacts the other had silver they both work fully now after the erasing but I will say the one with the silver contacts works better which seemed odd to me because I thought gold contacts would be better Anyway I was playing Pole Position and some other carts last night with these newly fixed controllers and plan to fix the other joysticks I have and if I find out 4 jays meerly erased my contacts they will be hearing from me Anyway everyone who does not want to pay to have your controllers rebuilt or do the rev9 ting this has been working for me I will let you know if there are any problems Anyone know of any with this method?

Damn really why is this so complex isn't there someway to get the actual 5200 controller to be infared? it has the start and pause button on it Sorry I am infamous for coming up with ideas that are to complex for me to execute myself but thats what you geniuses are for My question is has anyone attempted this for the 5200 in the past?

extension cables are still a cable but I have never seen those can you post a pic? With all our technological advancements we have to be able to make a wireless controller for the 5200 even if only 10 people will use them I have a infared ps2 controller set and a few broken 5200 controllers Now how do I put it together to make the illest 5200 wireless controller? Someone has got to run with this idea its our duty and 5200 lovers would infrared be ok? you need to buy a wireless pc gamepad (not usb)and use the pc to 5200 adapter like if one were so inclined they would buy this eBay Auction -- Item Number: 360199720687 and make an 5200 adapter or find someone selling one too bad i didn't jump on these but i have a few gampads already eBay Auction -- Item Number: 270518636754 although my experiences with wireless controllers (2600 rf) and a nes infra red) they just aren't that great

I just put my second 5200 to work in my studio annex.This is basically my old bedroom where my recording studio used to be and now I have turned this room into a video transfer video production room and a art studio.I plan to get a monitor to go in this rack and I would like to have one of those monitors that you can hook up 3 vcrs to and have the 4 screen split like on a security TV anyone know about those monitors? The 4th slot I want to put the 5200 through and what would look really great would be a wireless controller due to the fact that I have the 5200 on the top of the rack I plan to have a multicart here and just keep my main 5200 and collection in the real studio.Just incase I am drawing or making a video here and really need to play 5200 Anyone ever make a wireless controller? Will someone please make one

Ok how about on the PSP I just ordered one homebrew ready?

I got it installed on my flash card I am using itouch ds card micro sd all that jazz It has up to date firmware and the stella program opens and says it see's 2 roms but they do not display and underneath that is says null I am trying to run the synthcart rom and a game but they are not showing up I am totally lost what I am supposed to do with the DIDL thingy and the other thingy but they are all on the card What am I doing wrong ?

Just an adapter for the 2600 though right? The 5200 already has the right wire

I dunno I do not mind them being RF I do not want to go and mess with them I am sure it is an easy mod that I am capable of doing but something about keeping the consoles as the are is just the collector instinct

Use one of these on the 2600 (and the 5200 if it's 2-port): Use one of these on the CV: Switch them to the TV's antenna input with a cable A/B switch, or two if you have a 4-port 5200 (I can't find any switches with 3 or more ports, maybe they exist): If the 5200 is 4-port, rig it inline on the RF. Run the NES and Genesis (Genesis only supports composite and RGB) through a switch box to the TV's composite input. For the rest, get the appropriate S-video cable and run them through a switch box to the TV's S-video input. OK so I am in the process of taking your advice but I have questions I have a 4 port 5200 and it has that annoying rf thingy I have a Colecovision I have a 2600 and a Genesis I would like to be able to switch between all that On the switcher you show there is only A B so your advice is to hook up the 5200 to A then daisy chain the 2600 to the weird 5200 rf box thingy Then hook the Colecovision into B Is that correct ? The Genesis I am not sure how that works that special cable they sell where does that hook in? I need one s video 4 port switcher to hook up my NES Dreamcast PS2 Gsmecube so where is the Genesis going? Thanks for the help

http://www.gooddealgames.com/inventory/Atari%205200.html are all these 5200 carts really available? I thought they were super rare? I am really interested in the music tracker cart I know someone mentioned this to me on here but how come no one mentioned all these other carts? Can we have a full list of all homebrew and ports for the 5200 Also if I buy the Atarimax flash cart are all these available as roms?

I want to buy the cvdrum cart and the 2600 synth cart where can I do that?

Hey I would like to know what is the best solution I have 3 rf consoles Atari 2600 Atari 5200 Colecovision and 5 S Video consoles NES Dreamcast PS2 Gamecube and Sega Genesis I currently get a lot of static chaning RF Boxes to one another IE: 5200 RF to TV Coleco into extention Is there a multi RF Swticher that would expand the RF in's of my TV?
