  1. What a crappy bunch of launch titles! It's a wonder the VCS lasted long enuff for Space Invaders to be released I suggested a multi-cart of all the launch titles for the 30th Anniversary back in 2007 but everyone agreed it would be the worst multi-cart ever produced.
  2. Would it be possible for someone to hack Boxing so that it may be restarted using the fire button? Love the game but like all Activision titles it is annoying reaching for the reset switch.
  3. Any updates on this one? This would have been a fine port but I guess Champ Games is down for the count?
  4. That's because most emulators on Linux were developed for Linux as an afterthought (where the main focus was on Windows). Stella is actually one of the very few emulators that is developed exclusively on Linux, and ported to OSX and Windows afterwards. IMHO, a Linux system with a properly supported OpenGL card is still the best environment for Stella. Thanks Stephen! Stella is the top of the line. I found an NES emulator I was about to download and it had no sound whatsoever and I couldn't figure out how to make my gamepad work with it. Screw it, I'll play Atari
  5. I am looking for a good simple NES emulator prefer one which has an exe file. I have zero problem getting Stella to run on my system but EVERY other emulator I have tried is nothing but a pain in the ass. If anyone can point me to a good easy to install/use NES emu and some ROM's I would appreciate. thanks
  6. As much as I love the original hardware my original console (Vader) is packed away in a closet while Stella is sitting right here on my desktop For Atari I prefer emulation because it allows me to have all my games at my fingertips PLUS I can play the new games in development here on AA. Emulation is my pick nowadays.
  7. Am I the ONLY person who likes Pac Kong??? It ain't THAT bad and the difficulty is a notch up from Coleco's DK Cut it some slack! I keep in on my fav's list on Stella.
  8. Either or would have worked. I saw the Atari Style on Amazon and they looked neat but this Radio Shack deal serves the Porpoise
  9. it should. i use this one for all my emulators including stella. http://www.geekstuff...pad-i-revo.html Awesome! I have no problem playng Stella with the keyboard controls but my 5 year old has a hard time with it. I need something to help her enjoy it more.
  10. Jackassery on their part! I myself am content just to play Air Raid on Stella (and not that often) but some people will gladly pay 5 grand or better to own it.
  11. Yip, I still have the Vader that I got for my Bday in 1982 and it works fine but had to replace the joysticks. I played the Vader exclusively for 25 years and then switched to Stella
  12. I know about the Stelladapter and the USB Atari Joysticks I have seen online but are there any "over the counter" joysticks that serve the same purpose that can be picked up at Wal Mart or Radio Shack? Thanks.
  13. May I ask if you bought yours at Tuesday Morning or another discount store like Tanner did?
  14. I am FINALLY away from Win2000 and running "Ubuntu" on this new machine Stella works GREAT on it. Best emulator in the world. Wp
  15. Fired it up after a visit to the dentist. GOOD ONE! Even took my mind off tooth discomfort and and a deadened mouth lol
  16. Hello Andrews! Just been adjusting to post-tornado life :) Hope all is well with u! By "Our Queen" were you referring to Elton John?

  17. Glad the hurricane died down, amigo! Hope all is well up in The Bronx. Talked to my friend Frank Lanci who lives in the Bronx yesterday and he was bunkering down!! lol :)

  18. I LIKE it! Reminds me of mowing the lawn. Wp
  19. Very good! Quite an improvement over the last build I played a year or so back. Keep up the good work! Wp
  20. Wonder if the latest Stella is compatible with Windows 2000? I am still hanging stoneage style here. Wp Yes, it is. I am currently using Windows 2000 as well and it works fine. Thanks! I thought I was the only one Just gave it a brief run and LOVE it! The game seems great. Cant wait to see more. Wp
