I agree with Larry on all counts. I just tried the Super Nintendo version on my xbox (emulator). Very playable. The PC version will always be my favorite because that's the one I played in college (probably should've been studying).

[Cartridge List for the Atari 8-bit Computers (400/800/XL/XE Computers)]

Thanks Chris. This is helpful.

[Flip Flop w/Box Atari 8-bit Cartridge for trade]

Do both of them have the label on THAT side? How are the labels on your Boulderdash and Astro Chase placed?

[Flip Flop w/Box Atari 8-bit Cartridge for trade]

At the risk of derailing this, I just found a loose cart of this and was blown away by the apparent value. Does this really go for $100+?

 

 

I'd give 100+ ... I'm amazed to hear that anyone has two Flip and Flop carts.

 

Cool thing about this game is that it's rare and also VERY fun to play. The disk version looks a little better (mainly fonts), but plays the same. Good luck Chris. Wish I had something to trade (maybe 37 basic carts?).

I don't believe that anything like you've described exists. Sounds cool, tho. Why do you like pokey over SID (just outta curiosity)? pokey sounds more retro?

[HSC10 Round 2: Pac-Man]

Man, I'll have to hope to get some scores on one of the catch-up weeks. I've been playing the Pac-Man games on and off over the last several days, but I totally forgot that this round ended over the weekend.

[Was Satan's Hollow ever released?...]

I believe this would have been a CBS (not Atari) release, but I could be wrong.

 

Nice looking label either way.

[Atari Articles in Computer Shopper magazine]

Yeah, I remember those mags. Giant. A friend of mine used to buy them about every month in the 80s, but when he moved (and I helped him) it was decided that they were too big to move.

[HSC10 Round 2 Poll]

Q *freakin* Bert!

 

 

Also, iirc, The Last V8 is almost unplayable on NTSC.

 

I'll play whatever the group chooses, however.

[HSC10 Round 1: Jet Boot Jack]

Challenge.... Accepted!

 

Hahaha!

[HSC10 Round 1: Jet Boot Jack]

4600. Bit of a learning curve with this one, but I'm glad to finally play it.

[Atari 800/XL/XE Ultima II and Ultima III]

Glad to see 'em go to a good home (and to avoid ebay).

[Atari 800/XL/XE Ultima II and Ultima III]

*sold*

 

I am offering two complete boxed sets of Ultima II and Ultima III for the Atari 8-bit series.

 

Both sets are complete-in-box (as far as I know). Both include the cloth maps and manuals, etc. (see pictures). U3 includes some personal notes and an extra user disk.

 

While I am a fan of the Ultima series, I have not played these particular disks. I offer no warranties, but guarantee that you will receive what is pictured.

 

I ask $45 for each item, or $80 for both. Preference given to offers for both. Shipping within the continental US will be $10 per parcel (if you order both, they will ship together in one parcel).

 

This offer is good until Feb. 14, 2013.

 

Please send offers by PM (including low-balls).

Was there really a company called Afflatus Link, Inc.?

[Myide 2 for Atari 8 bit from Atarimax / mr Atari]

Hi,

Mr Atari posted 24 converted XE Roms(32K-128K) on his web page. They work great on the MyIDE 2 Cart.

It is sweet to be able to play these large roms on an unmodified(no extra memory) Atari using the MyIDE 2.

You can press System Reset and the Atari responds in the same manner as if you had the original cart plugged in.

With the Xex & R16 Rom loaders, you can run virtually any program ever made for the Atari on an unmodified(No extra memory) XL-XE computer.

Here are the 24 roms.

R16.rar

 

I'm uploading 21 more roms for the MyIDE 2 that I've converted.

I have not fully tested them, but the title screen at least come up.

I failed at converting Hardball,Mario Brothers and Tower Topper.

Someone who is alot more knowledgeable than me (Mr. Atari) will have to convert those.

All 8K and 16K(Non-Banking) carts will work without any modifications.

21 more R16 Roms.rar

 

Let me know if the roms work or not.

I'm out of town for the next week, so I won't be able to post for awile.

 

Thanks,

Doug

 

Very nice work! All of the ones I tried have worked perfectly (and I've tried quite a few).

[Has anyone dumped the Dorsett tapes?]

Glad to hear these are archived.

 

Speaking of "hearing" and sorry to go OT ... is there any way to use such titles as "Conversational Spanish" on any emulator? And less OT, can the dorsett tape images be used with the Educational MS cart?

[Label Variations]

There is some info here. Look toward the end of the document. I think quite a few label variations are not mentioned there however.

[Myide 2 for Atari 8 bit from Atarimax / mr Atari]

R16 are 16k-banked images for MyIDE-II

 

R16 is the extension for the ATARIMAX FAT32-loader to recognize the file-type.

 

I have converted now most XEGS-roms to R16 format.

 

Amazing. I love this cart too. Nice work Mr. Atari.

[Myide 2 for Atari 8 bit from Atarimax / mr Atari]

Sounds interesting. Forgive me. What is an R16 image?

[Mystery Unboxing]

I know, that was the joke

 

Crap, I should have guessed that. Good catch either way.

[Mystery Unboxing]

Why is your avatar a picture of Burt Reynolds impersonating Norm McDonald?

 

It's actually the opposite of what you said, but I just did it because I thought it was funny (I do that on occasion). Turd Ferguson is a handle I have used once in a while in the ##atari IRC chat. Therein lies the relationship.

[Mystery Unboxing]

Nice find.

[Bounty Bob, really.]

I think this is even funnier: Atari XEGS Light-Gun

 

I like the "Add warranty from 19.99" ... extended warranty? How can I lose?

[Ridiculous Reality]

Astonishing, absurd, and very playable. Well done! Thanks for the NTSC version. I look forward to playing this on the "real" ...

[EA Flats]

Sure!
