Rom Hunter

Thomas, do you have a link to these credits?

2002?!? Aren´t you confusing Mika Mika´s WIP with Leaven´s WIP? Bob Curtiss seems most logical. BTW: I have also Richard K. Balaska credited for Kick-Man.

But these ROMs were ´fixed´ by altering the emulators and not the ROMs themselves, right? If so, then IMO the same should be done with the Kick-Man ROM.

I see. Thanks for making it work, Thomas! It's a fun game.

Game plays great! Dutchman2000, Will you also release the original, 'unmassaged' ROM?

I always hoped this one would be found some day! This is truly wonderful. Many thanks for sharing!

That's wonderful, Dan. Would be an honour to archive it in the Atarimania database. Keep up the good work!

Many thanks for sharing! It feels like Christmas time with all these proto dumps.

Many thanks for dumping the ROM. Another VCS chapter closed.

Yep, that´s the PAL version. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, that is too bad indeed. Well, you at least saw it in person.

Great score! Never seen that press kit before. Would love to have scans of that one for the database.

How do you call this? A postotype?

It´s not extremely rare in PAL, but AFAIK it has never been found in NTSC. If you´re willing to open the box and show us a screenshot, then I can tell if it´s the NTSC version (it´s different from the PAL version).

Captain Combat, do you know if yours is NTSC?

No bootleg or differences in software, just a label variation: http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-2600-vcs-donkey-kong_8097.html

Are you sure it´s NTSC? If so, the score, lives and bullets counters shoulod be inside the playfield, otherwise it´s PAL. Can you show us a screenshot?

That´s an interesting item. Never seen it before. Could indeed have something to do with Pitfall! if it´s from the early 80s.

I very much doubt it's Lochjaw if you bought it in the late 80s, but you never know. Fingers crossed.

Yep, that's the Colecovision version.

Great find, Jason_Atari! Congratulations. Nice to finally see the inlays up close. Many thanks for sharing the scans.

Here's a funky one. Resembles bakelite.

Great find. Would be interesting to see the differences (if any) between your Gravitar proto and the final release. A ROM dump would be great. Thanks for sharing!
