    You know, it's pretty obvious what Atari was doing in 1988. Obviously they saw the frenzy that was Super Mario Bros., apparently they still had the rights to the original Mario Bros., and decided to try and cash in.

     

    Actually, I think this was a result of Atari's winning (yet another) lawsuit, this time against Nintendo for the scrolling routines. Part of the deal was that DK, DKjr, and Mario Bros. would be licensed for the 7800.

    With the first working Jaguar emulator being released, I was wondering how long it will be before BattleSphere ROMs are plastered all over the place? I'm sure it will take a while before 3D can be fully implemented in the emulator, though.

     

    I hope Scatologic put some kind of hardware hack or dongle or software encryption in the game!

    I think the only ROMs that will run at all are T2K and possibly Flashback and Cannon Fodder since there are screenshots on the site.

     

    Cannon Fodder definitely works as does Flashback. Don't know about Tempest 2000 since I have it in .bin format and the emulator requires download and start addresses.

     

    I'll have to try out some other ROMs to see what happens. :wink:

    I just got an Atari jaguar and I'm looking for some COMMON(cheap) games that are fun.  If you have any recommendations tell me.  I already have cybermorph.  I also need some AV cables because when using the rf unit that came with it, it looks like shit, and when I use the cable from my atari Junior it looks like shit unless I get it perfectly right, then it still looks kinda crappy.

     

    Heh... There aren't too many common Jaguar games that are good. Tempest 2000 & Iron Soldier come to mind.

     

    Check the TAT list for more info:

    Wish I could have taped that. I've got both "Devil Fish" and "MST3K" in my Atari on Film page.

    There is an error with the link. Could you check it for typos?

     

    Yeah, I changed it. It should now be:

    (I got rid of the "special" part.)

     

    I discovered it today. I took some shots with my digital cam:

     

    Mind if I use those pics for the (url above) Atari On Film page?

     

    Thanks!

    What's in your VCS RIGHT NOW????

    Or if that does not apply, what was the last Atari 2600 game you played?

     

    I think it was Combat. I needed a screenshot for the Top 20 Atari Games article!

     

    Can't remember the last game I played on an actual 2600... I dug them up a few months ago to clean them and test them out again, but I can't remember the "last" game I played, because I played them all!

    Can the 7800 do 3D style games? :ponder: or is the hardware of the 7800 just limited to 2D games?

     

    If games like Tunnel Runner could be done for the 2600, then something better could be done for the 7800.

     

    There are no true 3D games for the 7800. But I think Ballblazer gives a taste of what could have be done.
