Finally got an AV mod for my original Atari (brazilian Polyvox model, from around 1985).

Thanks. In long term this can damage the videogame hardware?

Of course the rom will be pirated. But this will change the sales for collector who buy because the physical cartridge? Maybe in part, yes. But the downside is that a lot of cool new 2600 games and they are restrict to youtube videos for most people, rather than creating a bigger audience. And for overseas the cost a physical purchase is much higher.

Thanks. I believe is my Atari that need a good recap and maybe the voltage is not perfect. The colors are off. Adjusting the color pot helped, but not solved 100%.

I bought in Brazil. Has a generic label and a reset button on the side. No screws that I can see so I don't want open now. It was cheaper than a cartridge with SD card e and I just want something to play with my original Atari. Another thing happing to me is that the cartridge seems to be generating a vertical noise. My Atari was already super noise, than maybe is more susceptible to the cartridge voltage. The effect is more noticeable in Kaystone Kapers (I have a normal cartridge of this one to comparison). Noise in general is because old caps? Thanks.

Hi. I just bought a multicart and after a few minutes the cartridge is warm. Not overheating, but I can feel the plastic way warmer than a normal cartridge. It is normal for this kind of cartridge?

Secret Quest. Thank you both.

I believe that was not a homebrew, but a late release of a very complex game. You walk in a lot of rooms, taking objects or power ups and fighting enemies. I remember reading that Atari was wasting resources doing this 2600 game rather than a 7800 new release. Thanks.

Took some photos from the Atari Portable outputing into a 14" CRT TV. The cellphone camera change the colors a little. The sound and image go to the same cable in that 3.5mm jack, but the result is cleaner than the original 2600 RF output. The emulation seems fine, with the sound a bit off.

The chicken is not send back when hit by cars. The portable flashback hardware has issues with some games. Later it was posted here a fixed .bin that works.

Another thing, anyone teste the AV output in a CRT TV? I have a cable that worked in a flat tv, but in the CRT I only got sound, not image. Don´t know if is the cable or the system signal.

Don´t know if can´t be update, but the Freeway version in Game.zip is the old one, with the collision bug.
