Awesome, thanks again!

Awesome, thanks guys! Anyone else getting a 404 error on Lord Innit's .bin link?

Yeah, my PAL versions are just NTSC colours.

Anyone able to make a PAL60 conversion of "Roc 'n Rope (1984) (Coleco, Ed English) (2667) ~.bin"?

Some people hate this game, but I've been playing the "Roc 'n Rope (1984) (Coleco, Ed English) (2667) ~.bin" version and it runs considerably faster than the CBS version. Both the versions I've been able to find are NTSC only – has a PAL60 version of this been made here? I can't seem to find one via Google. When played at fast speed, this is a pretty cool platformer, with multiple level designs.

Circus AtariAge rocks – more speed and excitement that the original. Was just playing it yesterday!

Playing Commando Raid on the Harmony just now, doesn't seem to be a PAL 60 of is available. Shame really, as it has fantastic colours in the NTSC version below. Even the ROMs that say they are PAL (50) are still just NTSC ROMS.

Legend!! Cheers Omegamatrix! Thanks bataais and davyK for the conversions you guys have made too – any new conversions possibly on the horizon?

It's a shame about the source code – it would be awesome to even have the prototype version with sound. Maybe it could be a collaborative thing? - Like a group on here does a task each, making the overall job easier for each? Release it as the finished ROM – by Atari Age, sell carts with boxes etc. I'm not much help though, my coding skills are zero

The prototype is pretty cool. Why wasn't it finished? Looks like it was mostly done.

Hack 'Em and Ms. Hack!

Bump Hey, was there ever a PAL 60 conversion done for Mr Do? I can't seem to find it anywhere online...

Never heard of this third party device before. Allows user to hold down fire button for continuous firing.

Nukey, you are a LEGEND! (yet again!) Thanks so much, my wife loves this game!

I wonder if the code could be tweaked to slow it down a bit?

A frustrating but challenging game. But was a PAL version ever made for this? Would like to play it on Harmony / real hardware!

Are you making any new 2600 games at the moment? Hack 'em and Ms Hack are pure re-playable gold.

Stick the cartridge in pull it out and jam it in Fried-up cool effects

You're right, it works!! Thanks Funny that it didn't LOOK like the contacts were in the wrong spots visually, but removing it and replacing it again worked.

Please create more when you have time, guys! There seems to be a decent following of the PAL 60 ROMS.

FAR OUT!

I've got a couple of joysticks / game pads that have the same style of simple board inside: When the stick is moved or the button is pressed, the thin metal "blister" is pressed onto the contact below. However, sometimes, the contact only works when the stick or button is pressed super-hard, making it almost useless. - It's not a wiring issue, and the blisters line-up correctly with the contacts underneath. - This is for buttons on other controllers too, any ideas??

Cheers! Yeah, those project boxes are great. Some people are using other crazy boxes instead, like lunch boxes! http://stiggyblog.wordpress.com/2013/08/18/raspberry-picade-lunchbox-edition/

I had a crack at making a short video on 2600 compatible joysticks. One at the end is my homemade 2600 arcade joystick.

NTSC ROMs will work on a PAL 2600, but: - Wrong colours will be displayed - Speed will be correct (good) PAL ROMs (Usually 50Hz) - Correct colours - Slower speed by approx. 17% than the original NTSC versions - Vertically squashed screen, compared to "taller" NTSC screen PAL 60 ROMS: - Correct colours - Full speed - Full screen height This is why PAL 60 conversions rock!
