I received mine this week as well. I played it a couple of times on Prosystem, but there is nothing better that playing it on real hardware...another great game from Bob!!!

Star Castle Arcade - Beta Release
mmervine replied to Thomas Jentzsch's topic in Homebrew Discussion
Really enjoying this and getting a little better with some practice...ok, maybe I found a bug...I re-read the entire thread, so I hope I didn't miss anything...I am playing the latest build (140) with my Harmony cart and my 7800. When I try to pause the game, it flashes 'paused', but keeps going. -
Star Castle Arcade - Beta Release

I have to say that I am not very good at this game, so I will have to keep playing to get better. Very impressive work...seems to work great on my 7800! -

Another 7800 Game to update like Donkey Kong XM?
mmervine replied to swlovinist's topic in Atari 7800
Not to hijack the thread, but we are still missing some classics like: Missile Command, Millipede, Kangaroo, Defender, Warlords, Tempest & Zaxxon to name a few...it would be great to see Ken, Bob, or Perry work on one or more of these! If I had to vote for one remake, it would be (and don't laugh) Pole Position II. Love the game and it could even better with voice,improved graphics, and the option to use the racing controller! -
I actually like the switch box with the 4 port. I have it directly connected to my TV. My 7800 feeds into the antenna part of the box and my Flashback 2 into the AV ports. Thus, I have three game systems plugged into one TV and never have to move wires around!

2013 Portland Retro Gaming Expo -- Will You Be There?
mmervine replied to Albert's topic in 2013 Portland Retro Gaming Expo
I am hoping to be able to make this show...trying to squeeze it into my travel schedule...should know by the end of the week... -
Where's those 128K 7800 boards when we need them?
-
I was lucky enough to travel out to San Jose for business...I took 3 dead controllers with me and just handed them to Bradley...
-
Best will give you $6 for a trade in...thus, I would say that $6 is the market price for a non working 5200 controller.

Had a chance to test the latest build this morning. Other than the things that Bob said that he is working on, I didn't notice any big issues. A couple of comments: 1. After the player dies, the game sometimes continues for a second or two (not sure if this is intentional or not) 2. Game stops whenever there is voice synthesis (I assume that this is to be expected) then resumes 3. Would be really coll if, at the title screen, we would sometimes hear 'coin detected in pocket'!

This just keeps getting better!
-
Awesome...just ordered both of these!
-
Bob-just gave this a spin with Pro-system...looking really good! I played Berzerk about a million times on my 2600 and in the arcade...I can't remember ever playing Frenzy...wow...I missed out...what an awesome game! Can't wait to see the finished product and slide that cart into my 7800!!! You the man!!!!!!!!!
-
I couldn't agree more, I play Bob's games more than any others for my 7800!
-
Ditto!

I was out in San Jose this week and stopped by and spoke with Bradley. He says he is still having a blast as an Atari dealer and has no plans to retire any time soon!

It has been some time since I looked at this thread...wow...this is really amazing work!!!
