Blinky Goes Up (formerly GIANA BROS)
Crimefighter replied to Jan Hermanns's topic in Atari 2600 Programming
I thought this game was based on the great giana sisters.... -
Man what a pile of protos...how'd you find all those? Tempest is gonna be busy these next few weeks...
-
I'm stunned he isn't mass producing the game to sell...
-
This ain't good...I was hoping for some new entries on Tempest's website...

Can anyone help identify this?

Looks like a modem rack used by Bulletin Board Systems (BBS's) back more than a decade ago. -
So, there won't be a PS9, XBox 1920, nor a Nintendo 1024 console - apparently we'll all be playing games on your flat screens without a console. *pffth* Really? REALLY? And recordable media will go away too...I'm sorry but I'm not replacing DVDs with USB flash drives anytime soon if ever...far more likely to use recordable blue ray discs instead. http://shopping.yahoo.com/articles/yshoppingarticles/717/7-gadgets-that-wont-be-around-in-2020 Video Game Consoles Popular video game systems such as the Wii, PlayStation and Xbox may still be in homes next decade, but they will look much different. Rather than buy a separate console, Enderle expects that consumers will instead buy smart televisions with a gaming system built into it, not to mention tablets and smartphones that will continue to ramp up their gaming options. “It looks like analog game systems won’t make it until the end of the decade,” Enderle says. “You are already seeing the Wii have a tough time holding on to the market and PlayStation has been struggling for a while.” The gaming systems that will succeed in the future will be those that manage to move away from being focused solely on video games and more on other entertainment options such as movies, evolving from a traditional game console into more of a set-top box.

I guess everyone has decided they can't beat me...or else they're holding their scores as insurance to pull out at the last minute to take the win. -

The score was toss-able simply because he played the ONE TEDDY BEAR variation. -

I cry foul...188K using the one-ghost game selection...no way. It smells that he also has a banana fruit on the SECOND MAZE. -

That was my first real attempt at it...hadn't played the cart in several years. And geez, what a pain it is trying to group those monsters compared to all other versions of Ms. Pac! -

Better hang on to that - looks like you have maybe the first one found in the wild. How'd you get it?
-
The obvious one - the copyright date.
-
Tempest? Ideas on this one?
-
If you've found one of the Earthworld competition carts out in the wild...you've gotten yourself a video game holy grail. Can the programmer, Dan Hitchens be found to confirm the differences in the marketed game and the competition game?

>Hope that vendors don't mind having to take off another day from work. Hope that volunteers are willing to take a day off of work. Or have a different set of vendors and volunteers for the extra day.

Well...I dunno how many people NEED to attend...it's very crowded as it is which is why I didn't like the move from the more spacious Oconomowoc but Big Bang may get as big as MGC soon now that it has gotten established and is now more attractive to vendors. There is something to say about the vendor issue - the same vendors don't have to be there for each day. They can do one day, then a different vendor can come in...kinda resupplies the variety of product when a bunch of stuff has been sold.

>Everything from the Galloping Ghost Arcade - I wasn't familiar with it, now I'm going to have to make a road trip and spend a day there. I loved that they brought a Simpsons Arcade machine, a game that has sadly never seen a home port. It came out for the Commodore 64 and the PC actually. Ahem, Midwest Gaming Classic really needs to be extended another day. Big Bang is four days ... why can't MGC be three? They claim there's not enough volunteers...but how'd they staff Big Bang for four?
