  1. I figured I would ask. There's actually a few ways to order custom cartridges. AtariAge actually offers a custom cartridge service through their online shop. Also, Repentless Games will sometimes do custom cartridges as well (if they have the time to do it). Both places won't do it without first seeing/receiving permission from the creator (which in my opinion is very honorable of them). It's no biggie...... I've been able to get custom cartridges made in the past for other hacks, so I just figured I would ask 🤷‍♂️. Either way...... Props to the creator of this one. Definitely a fun idea 😎
  2. My two most recent reproduction cartridges (of some unreleased games). Astro War and Mazy Match

     

    I absolutely love the label art on these two cartridges. It kind of gives me "hippie/black light" vibes. I might have to put these right next to my Jimi Hendrix poster 😜

      This is pretty cool.  Thanks for sharing. 

  3. Yeah, I do know about those Harmony carts and such. My problem is....... I don't own a computer or any type of emulator. I pretty much only play on original hardware. I do have a emulator app on my cell phone which I use to try things out, but playing on a touchscreen cell phone doesn't work too well. I haven't needed a computer in a long time considering everything to be done with phones and tablets these days. Well...... Almost everything. I can't transfer files from my cell phone onto a Harmony cart yet 😂 In the past I've had friends offer to sell me a Encore which has been preloaded, I just haven't jumped on the opportunity yet.
  4. What a fun hack. I love the mini Death Star bridges. I don't know anything about hacking games but I wonder if there's a way to offer two types of usable ships. Example..... Difficulty level switch on "A" you control the Millennium Falcon.... Difficulty switch on "B" you can control an X-Wing. I'm getting crazy "Death Star trench run" vibes seeing this hack. Can I put this on a cartridge so I could try playing it using my Cosmic Commander Controller?
  5. Yes there are supposed to be five games. However, currently there is only 4. Zarkstars 1,2,4,5 (for some reason ZarkStars 3 has been skipped, but the developer still claims it will be released soon).
  6. We just received our copy here in the United States. The quality of these releases are amazing. Let the Space Saga continue 😎
  7. Why not give this old thread a bump😂 Here is another great homemade label done by a buddy of mine.
  8. "Steven" joystick holder There is very little information out there about this joystick holder/case. So I figured I'd add a discussion topic here. It appears there was a small company that went by the brand name "Steven" and they decided to capitalize on the success of Atari and release this joystick holder. I think it was released in 1983 and it was marketed to also hold six games in the case. Anyways, I've been looking for one for a while and I was finally able to pick one up. Obviously this is just another gimmick item and I definitely prefer to use the Atari joystick as is (not in this case). With that said, I still think the fake wood grain looks damn sexy😂. Does anyone else have on of these? I'm wondering if there's one of those hardcore collectors out there that still has one complete in box. If this joystick holder was in fact released in 1983, I assume not many were produced.
  9. Did you list it? I may be interested......
  10. I'm a big fan of Galactopus and it's awesome to see a Christmas hack of it.
  11. Here is the cartridge.....How do you like it? Thanks again for letting me get a cartridge made.
  12. I absolutely love holiday themed Atari 2600 hacks and homebrews. Just unpacked my collection for the season.

      WOW! What a cool collection, if you'll pardon the pun. I just have Stella's Stocking and Stay Frosty 2 on the way with my big order. Hopefully it gets here before Christmas.

      Thanks....... I have a AtariAge order as well. I'm really hoping we can get the games by Christmas 

  13. I kinda wish Galactopus had a Santa hat on in the game. (Disguised as a Santa, Galactopus tries destroying cities by sending down bombs disguised as Christmas Presents....lol) Thanks...... Was there any official Label art? If not no biggie, I can definitely come up with something Edit: (A buddy of mine just sent me a few Ideas that I think would make a awesome label so I might use that). I'll share a photo when I get one made😎
  14. I already own the first two Galactopus games, and I absolutely love them. I even put together a YouTube video of my son and I playing Galactopus a few years ago. https://youtu.be/N9m14C8VLyk?si=Drfsm_prFxO8yR2g I'm a huge fan of Christmas hacks and I was wondering if you would be okay if I can put this hack onto cartridge for my Xmas Hack collection.
  15. Happy 20 year anniversary to Extinction. Thank you for providing us with 20 years worth of awesome hacks/hombrews.
