JrPac

Hm. I'd check the pins on the port and make sure none are touching. Hopefully it's just fixed by a new port.

Very nice! With more memory that would be very cool to have music as well. I've been doing alot of artwork for early '80s Midway games (think Galagas, Pac family, etc.) for custom applications on arcade machines and could certainly help out with the labels should you have these cartridges produced (I would certainly buy myself a NTSC copy).

Title says it all. My 2600 Jr. has always had a cracked top shell as long as I've had it and figure it's time to replace it. Other than that he's a fine fellow. A loose top case is preferred however a full case is fine. Doesn't matter if short or long rainbow. Condition just has to be overall good.

Here's mine: Long Rainbow NTSC Atari Corp. Made in Taiwan S.N. AT 860928564 I'd really like to get an all black 2600 Jr. someday.

I was having the same issue with my Light Sixer 2600. Upon arrival years ago, the picture was perfect however degraded over time until quite poor. I was using one of those direct RCA to coax adapters you can find at Radioshack (seems to be what you are using here. Correct me if I'm wrong) however no pun intended, coaxing the coax adapter didn't help. The issue turned out to be the power supply having a poor connection. After cleaning and ensuring a proper connection, the picture is back up to tip-top shape. I'd start by simply wiggling the PS around.

Over on the KLOV forums there's a huge wealth of on FIF Jr. I used Audacity and small audio sections from the movie to add in the voices to the game. Just copy the sound files over to the sound folder and click "replace with new" and you're good to go. http://www.arcaderestoration.com/Media/Files/JrPacFixitFelixJr2.zip Hope this helps!

Upon testing on a 7800 to observe colors, I found that the game contains many quick-moving, seemingly random black bars that vary in size within the playfield. Odd.

I'm using a Light Sixer on a 19" Magnavox CRT. I could try it on other setups if necessary (I have way too many 2600s laying around and various television sets). Good luck going through to Namco.

I just tried this on real hardware via Harmony. Works great and is just a fantastic work, though a few things were noticed. The enemy cars become very difficult to see when two or more (or so, just going off what I believe the numbers were) are on screen or with a rock due to the flicker. Perhaps make the enemies a darker color or background lighter to be seen better? After death from anything, the screen rolls once while drawing the screen. It's a bit bothersome could be gotten used to after a while. The second track is a little hard to see with the red and orange, along with the flickering enemies. Again, perhaps lighter background or darker walls? Just what I found, note that I am no programmer. WIll be checking back for updates!

Very, very impressive, great work. I've been waiting for somebody to port Rally X in some way to the 2600. I would likely purchase a cart if these were made.

To the top. Pretty soon will be a fully restored 2600 4-switcher, a Sunnyvale in-house test 2600, and a ton of perfect to like new Game Boys of all models.

If you would really like to sell it and get pricing advice, I highly recommend the KLOV arcade forum at forums.arcade-museum.com. I've been on for over a year as Jr. Pac.

It's so good, cats ask for it by name.

Nice. Super Pac-Man is one of my favorites. I have a collection of 8 games.

I have a boxed copy of INTV Snafu with the controller overlays, though I'm unsure how to differenciate the Sears versions, if any or if it's even for the console you are looking for.

SMS Ms. Pac-Man was pretty meh.

Is 371st post anything special?

I sold a Play it Loud! Game Boy to Algus, all went well. A great guy to deal with with immediate payment. Enjoy!

I restore these controllers by fully de-oxidizing the PCB, installing all new improved dome switches, and so on. What is wrong with your controller (not working at all, directions or fire not working, etc.)?

Yes, this is a severe case. Here was the bottom on one of my particle board machines once stored for many years in a non-climate controlled area and suffered water damage at a time. You could pull the t-nuts out in a second. Multiple sections of the cabinet were also swelling. The coin counter only read 5k. Plywood, which is what many games were able to stand a much better beating though it's better to be safe than sorry. Take them in.

Today I picked up this very cool black Play it Loud! Game Boy at the local mall (surprisingly enough) for a decent price. It's pretty beat but I plan to restore it to sell or replace the whole shell and add a backlight. Not sure what to do with it yet.

My own.

Clay Cowgill is still around and hugely into the arcade business. I'm sure he can still be contacted about this.

Thanks for the comment and advice. I did forget to add that the case and buttons are all brand new, so hopefully that would add to the value!
