LOL What can I say... I dig how the game looks. To me, graphics mean the layout of the game, presentation and style, as well as how awesome everything looks. It's like, Fight Night has good graphics at first glance, but the menus and animations suck. robotfindskitten doesnt do much in the way of wowing you with graphics, but the presentation and overall style bump it up a bit. I also took into consideration that the Atari 7800 game looks just as good as the Dreamcast and PSP versions of the game, as well. Vinnie

Yeah that's awesome but I think something that mapped out where the dam tunnels go would be a nesscesity. CV

For those of you who give two craps, the Froo Froo has been updated with some major announcements and reviews of two homebrew games. While you enjoyed your day off (or resented not having one) I gave from the bottom. Enjoy! www.flipsiderunner.com/7800/news13.html Cousin Vinnie

In America this wasnt common at all where I lived. Too bad they are PAL games. Vinnie

Maybe I saw the Lynx verison mapped out and I was just remembering it as being for the 7800, It has been a few years. Well, you are a jerk... Vinnie

What Mitch said........ Vin

I did one for Super Skateboardin' on my site. It's ghetto, but it works! That's how I achieved the greatest SS time of all of the land. (But its a secret) I would love a Scrapyard Dod map for the site. I generally hate platformers or I would do it. SYD is OK, though... I just hate games with huge jumps... I think it's cheap. I've heard that the most difficult jumps can be skipped. That would make the game more fun to me, but I don't know if its true... CV

Do I smell and Asteroids Arcade Collection Dont forget about Defender Arcade Congrats on a great release Bob! Ugh.... no Hey Bob, my vote is that you tackle a new game not on the 7800. I believe in you! Popeye, Mr. Do, Moon Patrol... those would kick the a$$ Vinnie

Well, All I know is that my 7800 after-market collection is growing nicely. I haven't played a truly horrible one yet. Q*bert can be considered done. It's 99% there and awesome. I think all of the Pac-Man clones/ hacks kind of made them a little less special, but Pac Man Collection is amazing. But overall you would have to give the crown to Beef Drop. That game may be the best 7800 you can buy. Cousin Vinnie

I'm not a Kobe Bryant fan, but there is no need for Kobe Bryant to rape a girl. This girl was smart and wanted $$$$$$$. FUNK

The Video Game Critic gave Pac-Man Collection an "A". http://www.videogamecritic.net/ Congrats, Bob! Looks great! Can't wait to review it! FUNK PS: The Critic reviewed 4 7800 games and they all got "A"s. People on the board there are now saying they need a 7800 since the games must be so good. LOL

Errrr....... the game works fine in a Prosystem and the 7800 console... it DOES mean the same thing. FUNK

DEAR GOD SHADOW QUIT TELLING THE UNINITIATED TANK COMMAND IS A GOOD GAME!!! THAT GAME IS A PINK TRAVESTY!!! BTW, Galaga really kind of blows is why you were unimpressed with it. I like the 7800 because of the weird titles for the system. (Tower Toppler, Ninja Golf, Basketbrawl, Alien Brigade, Scrapyard Dog, Desert Falcon, Ballblazer, Midnight Mutants, Fatal Run, etc) are all favorites of mine. Games like Centipede, Food fight, Joust, Ms Pac-Man, Ikari Warriors, Commando cannot be denied if you like Aracade titles. Also, the homebrew scene is starting to take off. The Pac-Man Collection, Beef Drop, and Q*bert are all friggin' great.... I mean amazingly great... I mean mind-blowing yippie yip yip great. Vin

It's cool. Too bad the game sux Vinnie

Thanks I'm actually sticking to trying to completely learn the Display List thing so I don't have to start with someone else's kernel and create something entirely from the ground up. Bob That would be awesome. Your games are amaing in quality and I have a Pac-Man review special about to go up on the Froo-Froo that includes 3 of your games. No offense, but something other than a Pac-Man game from you (I'm sure) would be incredibly incredible and a breath of fresh air. Keep up the good work! The Champ

ET doesn't suck that bad. Anyone else agree? I remember playing this as a kid and I really was engrossed by it. Getting stuck in those damn wells irritated me, though. I also remember the first time ET died I think I cried. That means the game had to be halfway decent to get me that tore up, right? Or maybe I was just abused and blocked it out. Anyone got a couch I could lay on? Cousin Vinnie

was there really any good Superman game????

Organize all these supplies on a workbench or table. Make sure that you have proper ventilation in the work area, and that you have enough space to work with both console units. Ready? Lets go! Step 1: Take one of the RCA cables and snip it in half. Step 2: Take the other RCA cable and snip one end off of it. Step 3: Twist the three ends of the wires together, and then wrap in electrical tape. Step 4: Flip your 5200 over and set it on a smooth surface. Step 5: Use the elmers glue to glue the label side of the 7800 cartridge to the bottom of the 5200. Try to center the cartidge. Make sure you use enough elmers to completely fill the label indent, or your adapter may not hold together well enough. Step 6: With the 5200 still situated upside-down, glue the scrapwood to the edges of the 5200. Make sure they extend about 6-8 inches away from the console. There needs to be enough distance, or the mod will not be stable! Step 7: Let the glue dry for a day. Check that the cartridge and wood blocks are firmly secured before continuing. If you can't get the wood or cartridge to stick well enough, consider the advantages of hand-applying super-glue to the components using your finger tips. Step 8: Carefully place the 5200 over the 7800. Lower it into place using the cartridge as a guide. You should feel the cartridge firmly socket into place. The wood blocks should just reach the table to stablize your new adpater. If the wood blocks are not tall enough, glue a few slivers of wood to the ends of the blocks until they are tall enough to reach the table. Step 9: Hook the long end of the RCA cable into your television. Hook the short ends into your 7800 system and 5200 adapter. Step 10: Attach the power cords for your 7800 system and 5200 adapter. Step 11: While in 5200 mode, you need to have 5200 joysticks plugged into your 5200 adapter. The 7800 joysticks are not compatible. Step 12: Insert a cartridge into your 5200 adapter. Step 13: Your new 5200 game adapter features a special power switch that allows you to turn on your system even if the power switch on your 7800 system is blocked. Use this switch instead of the 7800 power switch to ensure that both the adpater and the 7800 are fully powered on. Step 13: Enioy playing 5200 games on your 7800 system! Here's a photo of the new adapter in action! (Note that the 7800 may not be visible while the 5200 game adapter is in use.) Your adpater should make your 7800 compatible with all 5200 video games and accessories. This includes the 5200 joystick, the trackball, and the 2600 adapter. (Yes, that's right! You can now play 2600 games on your 7800 thanks to the 2600 adapter for your 5200 game adpater!) Keep in mind that this is very sophisticated technology. Take care not to damage any of the components while in use, and do not store the adapter in temperatures below 32F or above 105F. With proper care, your adapter can provide many years of gaming enjoyment! Cool! Cousin Vinnie

But you did anyway! Vinnie

I meant the other way around. Playing 5200 games on your 7800. There seems like there has been too much talking about this and not enough working. GET TO IT Vinnie

That's right! That's what I want for Christmas. Someone make one, I command you Cousin Vinnie

As a self-proclaimed 7800 expert, I will have to say the 7800 version is one of the worst games of all time. Some say the 5200 version of the game is the best classic baseball game ever. Draw your own conclusions Cousin Vinnie

Why is there no 4th screen? Yo? FUNK
