You are exactly right and it does take people by surprise to know what all is going on with the VCS these days. I have been following the homebrew scene for 6 years and have been a 2600 fan for 30 years and I believe the old system is more alive now than it has been in decades. Wp

Halo for the 2600 Released at CGE! Download the game here!
sandmountainslim replied to Albert's topic in Atari 2600
Which is GREAT and an honor to have the Old Legends floating about...but...they are a violent quarrelsome bunch! I haven't seen Larry or Howard Warshaw attack anyone here but generally the legends show up with guns-a-blazin'!! Wp -
Why does Homerun get such bad reviews?? It is a nice fun game in my opinion and I loved it back in the early eighties and would play it all the time. I just fired it up on Stella and played the thing for half an hour and it is STILL a great little game. I don't even like sports titles but Atari Homerun and Bowling generally amuse me. Anyone else got love for this early title? Wp

Great idea! Heck yeah, that's a great idea, I have a spare console so I might do it. Gotta get the right paint, though BAH!! Horrible idea! Keep the kids away from our beloved VCS! It is the Property of Generation X.....all ours! Wp

I gave Halo 2600 the ultimate test and let my 4 year old daughter play it...... "I shot the zebra, daddy!! I shot the zebra!!". It passed her inspection although she misinterpreted the sprites. It's a winner! Wp -

I am a huge fan of Berzerk for the 2600 and especially of Berzerk VE and the Berzerk VE Arcade hack but.....this is better. Like Mega-Berzerk. I will go ahead and say it....... Best New Release Since LadyBug! Wp -

Someone should buy the name and put it outta it's misery! We have the old consoles, homebrew scene and emulators. No reason for the ghost of corporate Atari to linger. Wp -

How do You shoot?? Fire button doesn't do it. I just stroll around as a target. lol Wp -
VERY sound advice Thank U. Wp

Still no luck. Created folder etc. This thing is MUCH harder than Stella to use. Stella is EASY all u do is drag a rom from the stella rom folder into the Stella icon on my desktop and....BAM there is your game! Try it with MAME and all U get is an error screen and a buncha stress. Wp
-
I know how to FIND my folders. Problem is there is no folder there. No folder I can find says anything about MAME Roms. Only when I open MAME there are little folders on the left side of the app but that is all. Wp
-
How do You find the folder to put the roms in for MAME? I see the little folders when you open the app but you cannt drag a ROM into them. Also cant find a folder for it in startup menu. Wp
-
It does it with every ROM I try. Is there something I need to do to the ROM's first? I downloaded the emulator and hit F5 and tons of games are listed but none of them work. Wp
-
I did. I tried the ROM's that came packaged with it and the ones I got from other sites and all of them have the same error message. Wp
-
Got MAME32 downloaded but everytime I try a ROM it starts to load and then I get a box saying "ERROR Required files are missing game cannot be run". WTF?? Games load around 64 percent then the fuggin box shows up. Wp
-
Have you tried using a Front End for MAME like MAMEUI?or MAME32FX? I have not but I shall seek them out. Thanks Wp
-
After all these years I STILL have not gotten MAME to run on my computer. I download the exe file just like I do with Stella and it downloads but no installation wizard ever appears...WTF?? How the hell do you install the thing?? I am running Windows 2000 on this laptop so could the aged system be my problem?? Wp
-
Love it!! Version 5 is the best yet. This is VERY quickly becoming one of my most played games. Wp
-
BRAVO!!! Duck Attack is among the most elite of Homebrew games. I love it. Wp
