HSC Special: Ms. Pac-Man

[HSC Special: Ms. Pac-Man]

So what's the hold up on the NES club?

They're still looking for a working NES. Don't worry, at least one is bound to work eventually.

 

That explains a lot, but I'm starting to get impatient... I've been waiting for days to post my NES score...

 

My NES works perfect;y and I got it at a thrift store!

 

Necro bump!

[Finally got AV mod onto my atari]

Saddam hussein is making fun of my spelling?

[Finally got AV mod onto my atari]

I doubt the cord is important. Probably any a/v RCA cable will do.

 

That's true, I only used a playstation video chord because they are not loose and I have like 5 PS chords

[Custom Intellivision forwarder on Wii]

I already have intellivisionlives for cube,ds,ps2,xbox.

 

Which ones the best?

[Finally got AV mod onto my atari]

I used this as a guide:

 

but didn't have the potentiometers, or enough parts for ben hecks 2nd mod.

 

So instead of using the 22 ohm resistor and potentiometers, do this.

 

tia pin 5: 360 ohm resistor from broken atari

tia pin 7: 100 ohm resistor ^

tia pin 8: 1k resistor from same place

 

Then trace chroma back from pin 9 of TIA because the spots all guides said to use didn't work. Hook all of them up to a video chord and MAKE SURE TO GROUND VIDEO! This has been my problem for a year now.

[The lost Atari treasure, real jewel encrusted gold and silver prizes!?]

*face palm* I thought you had found the holy grail of atari and were showing it off.

[Secret Quest question]

I have not played any emulators for anything besides PC that are as fast as the real deal.

Who would have thought 1mhz was that hard to emulate?

[Price check - 2600 with composite video OR heavy sixer]

How much would a 4 switch woodgrain with composite mod go for? I might sell mine since I have a heavy sixer.

 

OR

 

How much would a heavy sixer go for? Not necessarily going to sell either right now, but if you guys say they're worth something amazing I might.

[Atari Hacks And Games]

What is this I don't even

[Finally got AV mod onto my atari]

I have tried a lot of times to get composite video on my atari and always fail. Today I finally tried connecting the ground of the video wire to ground and it worked (how dumb was I?)

 

So now I finally have a clean picture and yellow/white cables coming out of it instead of the RF chord.

 

If anyone wants to know how to make it, I made it only out of parts I took from a broken atari, and a PS1 video chord.

[What was the greatest generational leap in consoles?]

2nd gen to 3rd gen.

 

absolutely nothing at all except games you can beat in under an hour or there is no end(arcade games).

people are sick of video games, crash happens etc.

 

Then boom, the NES comes out of nowhere and is a completely different concept to video gaming.

[z26 3.0]

It is really slow on my machine.

 

64bit dual-core 2.22 ghz, 2gb ram

wow the atari was powerful

[Question about Longhorn mod on 6-switch 2600]

From what I have heard, removing those stops it from recombining the video and sending it to the RF output when it doesn't need to. This should clean up the video a little also.

[Looking for Intellivision ROM/Emu website]

Did you extract the roms from the .rar?

[why won't my 2600 display composite video?]

I have a 4 switch 2600 that I have tried to video mod a couple of times. The first time I tried just tying all of the sync/luma/chroma together(chris's mod) and none of my tv's would show anything.

 

The second time I tried Ben Heck's first mod (the one with 2 potentiometers and a 22 ohm resistor).

 

I have a 1k potentiometer on both TIA pin 5 and 8, and a 22 ohm resistor on pin 7. I have the other side of both potentiometers touching, and have sync and chroma connected there too, and also that is where I have my yellow video cable connected.

 

 

Once again, I have triple checked everything and can't find anything wrong. On my HDTV it shows "480i" when I turn it on with a game in, but it is just a black screen. On my SDTV it stays at a blue screen and nothing changes. Going through a VCR to my SDTV has the same results.

 

If I connect the composite video cable to my rca-coaxial connector and put the tv on channel 2, I can see the game playing in black and white and scrolling up and down. This is weird, because it is supposed to be a composite video signal, not a channel 2 video signal ??

 

And finally if I plug it into the green spot of the YPbPr on my SDTV I can see the same thing, black and white screen scrolling.

 

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

[So, how are you setting up your consoles?]

I use just a standard entertainment center that I got for like $20 a few years back. I put the systems I use most there and then for my spares and systems I don't play as often I put selves up above the TV for them. I need to get so AV selectors but it works for now and since my AV on the TV is on the front it's not as big as hassle as you may think.

 

nice trampoline

[Wanted: 4 switch video mod or 2600 Jr system]

I'm wanting a 2600 with composite output, so I'm looking to buy either something to make my 4 switch have composite output, or to buy a 2600 Jr.

 

looking to spend no more than $20 after all is said and done. Will go higher if need to

[Thrift Store Joke!]

I'm from Tampa, and there is nothing here except hugely overpriced ($200 for a loose 7800, $100 for a loose 4 switch 2600) thrift stores and flea markets.

 

"do you know how old that is?! it's almost 30! of course it's that expensive, most probably don't work anymore"

[Atari 2800 System Box Japanese Translation]

There is a game cassette of missile headquarters TM.

 

Your post said, "For a limited time only, missile commandTM is included" and then you change it to match what I said.

 

the first time was my re-iteration of the guy above me to what i thought sounded right. the second was a straight copy from a different translator(http://www.ocn.ne.jp/translation/)

[VH1 - I Love Intellivision Video]

If you hate the intellivision's disc, you would hate an ipod.

[Which classic console should I get next?]

INTV, just got my first one and love it.

 

the Intellivision is its own animal. No other system looks, sounds, or plays like it.

 

 

i disagree, i think the coleco looks a whole lot like it! they even stole the name
