  1. my commodore paddles work on my pal 2600 fine on most games, but the calibration sensitivity setting is differnt than original atari paddles.

     

    they will work on most games fine, but on some like night driver, the sensitivity is too slow, and u cant really play. ok on breakout though.

     

     

    :)


  2. oddly i lve in australia and have a pal atari 2600 and 7800.

     

    so far i found that all my carts work on my 2600, but SOME of the activivsion carts will not work on my 7800. Also neither will the imagic ones.

    stange as this is as enduro racer works fine on my 7800 but megamanina and chopper command will not work. ????????

     

     

    :?


  3. :)

     

     

    thanks for the info,,but i will stay out of the vintage computer category, even though i would really like a c64 as i used to own one between 1986 and 1992.

     

    i think i will stick to emulators for my computers, as its not that much different than original c64 (the computer emulators seem more realistic when i front of a pc compared to console emulators) and ive put a big commodore badge on my pc case and keyboard. lol

     

     

    To me , its a C64 system, running windows in the background. :)


  4. Hi weasel!!

     

    im from australia too, and yes it is a bit tough to find atari stuff here, except on ebay.

     

    i have about 60 carts (which pales to some of the collections on here )

    but its a good start.

    im currently collecting for all systems, but concentrating on atari the most.

    if u have any doubles u would like to get rid off, feel free to msg me.

     

     

    :)


  5. One question

     

    Im not new to emulation, having a running emulator for nearly every system and have not have to much trouble configuring them to run properly. BUT

     

    :?

     

    When it comes to MESS i have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how to make it run and emulate even the most common system. :?

     

    I tried it a FEW times with no success, can anyone help?


  6. YES commodore amiga/c64/atari/sega have the same controller port and can be exchangable. ( Also for my coleco i usually take one controller out and plug in a normal atari one as they are better ) :)

     

    The only thing thats kept me out of the vintage computer collecting is reliablity issues with disk drives and tapes.

     

    ANyone care to shed some light on this issue? :|


  7. im no expert, but secret quest came out in 1989 (my PAL one did anyways)

    and it was completely programmed by Nolan Bushnell himself. Its a 16k cart i believe?

     

    but i do not kno which was the last produced atari cart.

     

     

    :|


  8. can anyone explain this?
