I've never experienced any problems running any 2600 or 7800 homebrews in my 7800. The sticker on the bottom has printed: 72R4BR A1 84 5300097 Mark

Al, Thanks. Personally I've never had a game for the 2600 or 7800 not work in my 7800. Oh, I've had the occasional times when I'd start a game and it wouldn't come up properly, but as you mentioned turning the system off, pulling the cartridge out and then reseating it, and turning the system back on does the trick. I bought my 7800 when it was new. Now the 2600 Jr. is a different kettle of fish. I have two and both have switches that have gone bad. Hence why I use my 7800 so much (usually with a Genesis Controller; w/Seagul 78 Control Adapter on games for the 7800). I rarely use my 7800 PainLine Controllers, so one is like new and the other has never been used. Mark

Marco, I've ordered a Custom 2600 Cart w/Melody Board and included a note for ROM Version 3. At the same time I ordered the box and manual. Is that all that I need to do? I play all of my 2600 games on a 7800. Someone posted about a problem with their 7800 playing Pitkat. Is that a common problem? I've also sent a note to Al about this order and asking him for contact info so that I can donate money to this project (unless it's no longer needed). Mark

OK, I've been absent for awhile so maybe I missed something. The time of release on pre-orders is January. But is that of 2022, or was January 2021 the original target month?

OK, so maybe I'm not the most tech savvy of gamers but I should be able to download and import ROMs for Atari 2600 games, especially as I have two emulators. To be clear I CAN download and import most commercial games from back-in-the-day, with a few exceptions. Mostly a handful of games from 20th Century-Fox and SEGA. But I've had ZERO success with homebrews and WIPs. Since a user at http://highscore.com/ submitted a score for Abyss of Chernobyl: 90 Seconds I've been wanting very much to play it. I have no idea if it's getting a physical release. I hope so. A factor to consider is that I have Doxillion Plus on my PC, which I use to archive all of my ROMs. I download the ROM that I want, and extract it with Doxillion Plus into the Folder of my choice. EMU7800 Version 2.2 (Core 1.4) Once downloaded I import the ROM file into EMU7800. This emulator will import most everything from back-in-the-day, but fails when it comes to some Fox and SEGA games. Stella Version 6.0 Has a ton of ROMs already, but whenever I try to download ANY homebrews, regardless of if they're a WIP or are finished games, Doxillion Plus pops up and I get an error message that reads (as an example) The file "Abyss0.19NTSC.bas.bin" cannot be loaded because its format is not supported in Doxillion Document Converter. What is the snag, and if I purchased a Harmony Cart what steps are involved in downloading ROMs into it? Abyss of Chenobyl is a large game. 64k I believe. Does the Harmony Cart have a size limit as far as individual games are concerned? I performed a search for the Harmony Cart at the AtariAge store but couldn't find it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks. I'll start saving my money for it now.

Thanks for the detailed information. I greatly appreciate. Now all I need is $750.

Thanks for the clarification.

I have some basic questions. If the Super Game Module was never produced, why are they being sold on sites such as eBay and Amazon. At $750 no less! https://www.amazon.com/ColecoVision-Super-Module-Ultimate-Wafer-Drive/dp/B07CVDTT8F And why are there homebrews for the ColecoVision that require the SGM? http://www.gooddealgames.com/inventory/Colecovision.html

Thanks for the info Al. That's a worry off my mind.

I've got a ColecoVision coming my way, so I've been wanting to order come homebrews for this system. However it doesn't seem to be possible any longer at the AtariAge Store. When I click on a title I can see the info for it, including cost and so forth, but there's no option to add these games to my Shopping Cart. Furthermore, while there is a link to click to add each of these games in my Wishlist, when I click on it nothing happens. What's going on? Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place, but this was the closest appropriate place that I could find.

I've been busying ordering games for my Atari platforms, although I'll be adding another retro console to my collection soon, so I'll soon begin purchasing games for it. More on that further down. All listed software (Games) are for the 2600. Recently Arrived, And Shown On My Youtube Channel: Software @eBay Beany Bopper Mega Force Revenge of the Beefsteak Tomatoes Turmoil Recently Arrived, But Not Yet Shown On My Youtube channel: Hardware Atari 5200 Trak-Ball Controller. Boxed. Refurbished by @AwesomeOgre. I traded my spare Boxed Commodore 64 for it. Software @AtariAge Aardvark (CIB) Software @eBay Alligator People (Prototype Reproduction). I already own the cart offered by @AtariAge, however this one uses the same artwork as found on the cover of a DVD release of The Alligator People. Doesn't appear to be from Hozer, but then I've never dealt with them so don't know what to look for.

N.E.R.D.S. (Homebrew; CIB) Star Wars: The Empire Strike Back I had never found a copy of N.E.R.D.S. before, but did tonight while trying to hunt down a decent, and affordable, cart of H.E.R.O. Video by CheapTech https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzuOVLH2NBo I've been wanting to order some ColecoVision games from @AtariAge for obvious reasons. However that option doesn't seem to be currently available. I can't even add them to my AtariAge Wishlist. Strange. Feel free to post your comments below. ?

That's approx. $250 U.S. Dollars. Two sets of wico controllers make it a bit tempting, but I currently don't have that kind of money laying around.

Perhaps not.

The Jaguar Conversion Controller doesn't appear to be out of stock. In fact the site indicates that there are 3 In Stock and that it can be back-ordered. Or did I miss something?

I've really been wanting an Atari 5200, but what has held me back are the controllers with their infamous poor build quality. I've done some searching online and found a couple of alternatives. Forgive me if their old news, but I think that it'd be great if these were offered for sell through the AtariAge Store. Not as kits but fully built and ready to use. Alternative 1 RetroRGB Controller It looks nice, but what's the build quality like? It appears that this controller can be purchased either in kit form or ready to use. Alternative 2 Atari Jaguar to 5200 Conversion Controller Looks comfy. I've always liked the Jaguar Controller, and $89.99 seems like a reasonable price. Which of these Controllers is best? Can't these controllers be offered via the AtariAge Store?

As you may remember, I decided some time ago that the easiest way to build my Atari 2600 Game collection is to do it one publisher at a time. Publishers completed so far: MenAVision 1 game. Ultra Rare. So what I own is a Reproduction purchased through the AtariAge Store Mythicon 3 games. All suck! Next on the agenda is 20th Century-Fox ("Games of the Century"). Below is a list of all of the Fox/Sirius games. Those in Bold are already part of my collection. Those that are Underlined have been purchased on eBay, and have shipped. The rest of the titles I still need. There are seven Prototypes, two of which I own Reproductions of. Alien Alligator People (Prototype) Bank Heist Beany Hopper (Ordered; Shipped) Crash Dive Crypts of Chaos Deadly Duck Earth Dies Screaming Entity, The (Prototype) Fantastic Voyage Fast Eddie Flash Gordon Lasercade (Prototype) M*A*S*H (x2) Mega Force (Ordered; Shipped) Meltdown (Prototype) Pick-Up (Prototype) Planet pf the Apes (Prototype) Porky's Revenge of the Beefsteak Tomatoes (Ordered; Shopped) Save the Whales (Prototype) Spacemaster X-7 Turmoil (Ordered/Shipped) Worm War I Do you have any suggestions on which game(s) I should purchase next? How about Publishers? I'm trying to decide between Activision, Imagic, Coleco, Sega, M Network (Mattel), or Coleco as being the next publisher I concentrate on next.

Tonight I experimented with recording game play footage. Some games seemed to work fine, while some, like Mouse Trap, recorded with some flicker. This is in spite of the fact that there was no flicker evident while I played. I've tagged Bob DeCrescenzo because I mentioned him in the video. Emulator: EMU7800 ver. 2.2 (Core 1.4) Capture Software: OBS Studio (Windows 10; 64 bit version) Controller: Logitech Xbox 360 I mention in the video how easy it is to import ROMs into this emulator, however I've never been able to get homebrews to import into it. I've tried the ones posted in the AtariAge Forums, such as The End 2600, but once downloaded they will not import. So, the only homebrews present are the ones that this version came pre-loaded with. Only one homebrew for the 2600, Oystron. However, many homebrews for the 7800 are included. The only one with issues is FailSafe, which doesn't work with my controller. Fortunately I own this game physically. Now I just need the box. All of the homebrews that came pre-loaded in ver. 2.2 of EMU7800 are available to purchase physical copies of from the AtariAge Store, with the exception of those by Mark Ball, and Santa Simon. I'd love to purchase physical copies of these unavailable 7800 titles, but if they're not available I'm out of luck I guess. I Can Now Record Game Play Footage Youtube Video

Early Summer will be here soon. Can't wait, but then what choice do I have? Plus, I'm way behind in fulfilling my Wishlist. ?

Thanks! I'll keep an eye open for it. ?

I've tried importing both the NTSC and PAL60 versions into my emulator, EMU7800 ver. 2.2, but neither will import. Will physical copies be available? I'm interested.

Game Go Fish! System Atari VCS/2600 Difficulty A/Expert (A/A) Score 5,914 I'll be officially submitting this score soon. I'm currently having technical problems with the photos that I took with my Smart Phone. Since the most recent Microsoft Update photos will not import from this phone to our PC. However, they appear in our Amazon Photos account automatically as before. I tried saving them to our PC from the cloud, however they didn't save as standard .JPEG files. The High Score site won't accept them due to this, although they will post both to Patreon (full image) and to the Community Section of my cessnaace Youtube channel (cropped). When I posted this photo to Youtube it cropped the file. I could move the crop horizontally, but either the score was cropped-off, or my ID was. It doesn't appear cropped at Patreon (Public Post). This isn't the only photo that I took, but they all refuse to post at High Score. I already have the World Record for this game in the A/Expert difficulty setting, but it's about 2,000 points lower than this one. I'd already achieved a new WR in the b/Novice setting, but that score is still being voted on. In fact this score is about 1,000 points higher than that score. I do play this game quite a bit. Every day in fact. I was able to post a photo fine to https://www.patreon.com/Cessnaace which I made a Public post, as opposed to Patron Only. https://www.patreon.com/posts/29998778 The photos that I took won't post here either. The photos saved as .jfif files for some reason, and not .jpeg.

One homebrew for the SNES is Justice Beaver: The Great Timber Tantrum, which is nearing completion by Collectorvision Games. I'm one of the backers for it on Indiegogo, so I received an update a couple of weeks ago, which included a link to a Youtube video. I'll try to link to it here, although it's an Unlisted video so I don't know if this will work. Justice Beaver Youtube Play Video
