There aren't any more selections after "T". Guess having one for every letter of the alphabet was asking too much

Some updated info from Al,
G= My Hat Has Three Corners
Al verified this one as well.
M= Go Tell Aunt Rhodie
R= ? Unknown. Al also agrees that it isn't Farmer In The Dell.
That would leave N/P/R/S/T

Kudos for making the special version of Space Shuttle! Finally, after all this time we can see what this "distinguished" display looks like - it looks similar to the Commander patch that Activision offered.
The only way to get the patch was to send in a screen shot of the special display. Did anyone ever manage to earn it?

The contest entry for the Space Shuttle trick requires that it be video-taped (on a real system), but if no one submits a tape of it, I may have to award you a consolation prize

Here's some others I have notes on...
Warlords -> Kings in the Corners (early name for arcade version)
Desert Falcon -> Nile Flyer, Sphinx
Star Ship -> Space Mission
Dark Chambers -> Dungeon, (or Dungeon Masters?)
Demons to Diamonds -> Hot Rox
-
It was also called "Grave's Manor"...
-
Don't know if there's any other different 5200 versions, but I *think* there were 2 different 400/800 Zaxxon games (or was that for the C-64?)...

When I tried it I got the Atari HQ site...maybe they bought AHS out?

Isn't there some way to "fool" the system into thinking the KidVid module is hooked up?

While we're on the subject of children's songs...
Al Backiel put together a list of all the known songs that are included in Grover's Music Machine, but the list is incomplete (and unverified). Here's his list - can anyone offer the missing info?

B - Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star
C - Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush
D - Over the River and Through the Woods
E - Hush Little Baby
F - The Itsy Bitsy Spider
G - ?
H - Skip to My Lou
I - Three Blind Mice
J - Hickory Dickory Dock
K - Do You Know the Muffin Man?
L - A Tisket, A Tasket
M - ?
N - ?
O - I'm a Little Teapot
P - ?
Q - This Old Man
R - The Farmer in the Dell
S - ?
T - ?
Pretty amazing that the programmer(s) managed to include so many songs!

Alex, weren't those AD&D protos shown at CGE 1999? I went last year but don't remember seeing those.

Yars' Quest Easter egg...
Well khryssun, I tried to find it, but I'm sure it's something maddeningly simple that I'm overlooking
-
It came boxed, as did Pac-Man (later on).

When you "climb" out of a well, you should immediately re-appear over solid ground.
And maybe instead of having so many wells, only have a few, with each one leading to more than just the one pit screen...
-
How exactly can this potentiometer mod be done?
-
Yes, an NTSC Motorodeo exists - I have one.
As for split-screen games, a few that immediately come to mind are Summer Games, Winter Games, Party Mix, and Cubicolor. I'm sure I'm missing a few though...

The new logo should be a pic of the gal from E3 holding an Atari water bottle....
-
The "bug" in the original version of Demon Attack isn't really a bug - it was intentionally programmed to end after a certain level. Fulop soon realized that the game was too easy for some people, so he went back and took out the "ending".
-
Wow - great score! What's your "secret" (technique)?
-
I've noticed problems with Cali Games, Centipede, and BMX Airmaster on the original (heavy) 6-switch models...

The same guy has two of them up for auction now..

Does anyone know if the Atari 8-bit version has that special screen as well? Did Steve Kitchen program that as well?
Were there any other versions of Space Shuttle made?
