Oh that is really cool! How far did you get on these?

You know, it would probably take next to nothing to get a Z interpreter going for the Jaguar and pack on some game images onto a disc. I know that every platform from the Atari 800 to current PC's has one. Even Palm Pilots and Newtons. Return to Zork for the Jaguar? Sure! I would have picked it up. At one time there was a store in New York that claimed to sell Return to Zork for the Jaguar. When I called them they said it was sold. Probably a typo.

Just wanted to say, picked up the Flashback from Target for $35 and find it to be really cute. And loved watching how some kids really got into it at a party, along with the parents. I think many will find it a lot of fun. The Flashback is TINY! It has listed on the back "Mini 7800". The controllers are comparitive "mini" size. The controllers do not work on the Atari 800 at the moment. Have to see if we can make an adapter. But my thoughts, cute, fun, simple. Something a lot of parents will have fun walking down memory lane... loved the two player Centipede! And the kids liked it to. Doctor Clu

That quote from Thunderbird is pretty funny. Was he making fun on Tom when he said that? Thanks for the Goodwill posting. I could use Attack of the Mutant Penguins... one day! Doctor Clu

I have a extensive collection of other people's collections that I have put together. I think I will explore these disks at last and see what they are. Expecially since I have a Indus drive working at last as well.

Yahhh!! "Nothing can stop me now!" - Bubsy

Well done! Congrats on making a mint on that.

Well Carl, a belated congrats on getting this game this is the first that I've heard of this game. So did the source ever become available? How many levels have you played on this? And exactly how many other cool games have you gotten ahold of that we can know are in safe hands? Let's see, I know of at least the Atari 2600 emulator and Livewire now... (Guess I'm curious what other games are out there and how far the development went on them.)

Sounds good to me! Sign me up.

Ok, I wanted to know if the source code for Bubsy exists... thinking maybe Bubsy 1 & 2 could be made as well... .... but here is a more general question along with that... what source code exists out there? (I know IS2, Fight for Life, Doom, ect...) Thanks!

JagDuo... that would be cool to have.

J64 sounds good to me!!

Well, should the Flashback come out, I will pick up that. I bought a used GameCube the other day (For playing GameBoy games) and have a continuing quest to get the other two Bubsy titles for the SNES. (Jag Bubsy naturally got me hooked). I am playing the GameBoy version of Bubsy ][ right now. Played Syndicate eh? With the jungle warfare I am surprised you were not playing Cannon Fodder. A dance game... now that would be awesome! DDR for the Jag!! Heheh! Well... if I don't see you before then, Merry Christmas y'all!

Thanks! Is there any site that gives the names with pictures of the opponents?

About level 29 and up I am getting pounded by a yellow swiggle character that seems to zap me from a billion miles away. What is that thing and how do I fight it?

"I just received one of jonathans ebay rotary's yesterday and it is quite good indeed! It's very precise, but i still have to get used to it (esp when trying to get to the opposite end of the screen quickly)." Got one of those controllers last weekend. Been loving it! Best I have found to get the guy from one end of the layout to the other is not to spin the rotary controller real quick... that seems to overload the game. You have to follow through with the rotary, turning it at a consistant rate. So the difference is... turning consistantly... click .. click..click..click... Spinning it... click... ZIP! click... The game reads four movements on the consistant ones, and seems to only read two in the spinning. Even worse, it seems to temporarily daze the game, sending it the opposite direction a click or two. So this is what I've noticed.

So where is this demo again?

This could come in handy. Basically a way to network Ataris. Have you tried this? I was thinking of setting up a Atari BBS, give it dialup and ethernet, but the software will only let you do one or the other. There needed to be a way to send packets to one another... or, in this case, set up a third Atari as the drive. This could be fun. Anyway, have you tried this, how well did it work?

I did not know that. Wow! Wonder why that is. Those Atari ST/TT computers never can get things completely 100 % right I swear.

"Whether they were better is a matter of opinion, I prefer my 800 over most of my other 8bits, I have an Integrator OS board, a 16K, a 512K and a bit-3 80 column board in my 800.... Its connected to one of the very few ATR8500's and I also have a Corvus Hard drive connected to it, though I've stopped using it in favor of my sunmark SIO2PC connector to my PC... " I too prefer the Atari 800. So what is the Integrator board, how does the Atari 800 accept the 512K, and tell me about the 80 column card. In my Atari 800 I have a MyIde rom board (one of two), I have a 16k and 32k card (would like to get like a 256 k card or something.) I've thought about mounting a small hard drive on a card and let it be powered through the ram card slot. But not sure what cards were made for the Atari 800. All I know is, the ram slots, cartridge slots, and rom slot on the Atari 800 make it one readily changable machine. I look forward to having the MyIde in the rom slot, and the ethernet cart in the right cart slot. That will be fun. And hopeully have a cart slot open for game carts.

I love the cover art. Now I want that cartrige. How did you do the lettering for the 400/800 style? I might want to make some labels for some things I have working on (like a label for my MyIde 800 OsClu that Mr. Atari made for me.) Always loved the brown and gold carts! So glad Castle Crisis went with that. Well... Galactica 1980.... first off, I love the original Battlestar series... a lot! To me it is one of the best examples of Sci-fi ever. Just a fun story line, the vipers were and are awesome, sound effects great, and the fact that there is a Galactica game for the PS/2 is making me want to buy one. I'm fighting it though. I will succeed. I will simply play Battlesphere on the Jaguar and select the Slith race (with their "Viper" which looks like a colonial viper) and fight like the Sebab or Thunderbird race with their cylon looking ships. And there is always STAR RAIDERS, where you fight a base star, cylon looking ship, and a tie fighter. Oh man, I love Battlestar!! THE FUN PART OF THIS MESSAGE... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now (young ears might want to turn away) that felgercarb that decided to pass for a watching show with Galactica 1980 is the worst thing I have seen in yahrens !! I mean what in the frak were they thinking that for one micron I would accept that.. well.. felgercarb ! That is the only word for it. Great Cobal that stuff was horrible!! After watching the DVD set again, and then being able to watch the episode where Starbuck made a guest appearance in Galac 1980 a sectar later, I felt lucky... for about a centon. Even with Starbuck the episode was complete felgercarb, and I remember that being the best episode?! I wouldn't pay one cubit for any Galactica 1980 episode. I would make those fraking daggets pay me just to store a pirated copy on my hard drive. Sorry, give me a centon to cool down... maybe a game of triad will help me blow off some anger.... Battlestar Terminology = http://www.movieprop.com/tvandmovie/Battle...terminology.htm

http://geocities.com/vlastaar/a8ether/ That is to the information on the ethernet adaptor, the operating system and web browser. It's out there.

I'll mention this since no one else will. 800XLDJ is the SIO2PC program for the Atari ST/TT. A great way to host images from aST/TT. I used it for a while. Liked it enough. It uses the weird .DJ format. A converter was made to make images for that format. Maybe one day I'll get it running again. Don't know.

Heheh... been doing this since 1982.. and all I can say is... ... Star Raiders, Archon, Joust, Return of Heracles, and Moonpatrol.

I'll say it again and again and again... Cybermorph is a heap of dung and I couldn't scramble to buy another game fast enough. Of course, I started in the Jag scene in 1999, so that might say something...
