  1. I was waiting for this port to happen since I first heard that Galaxian got a port to the 2600 in 2011-ish. I was always wondering about one thing "Is Galaga playable on the 2600?" Besides, we are making new innovations for the 2600 every year (Still thinking about AtariFMV), so it could be done. All I have to do is wait...8 years for this port to finally exist. Galaga is currently my 2nd favorite Namco franchise (Was Number 1, but that had since been moved down to 2nd in 2017.), and it is quite shocking that it never got a real port to the classic game console. I loved the game a lot, and I'm quite happy that the game is finally ported to the 2600. Man, if I actually owned a 2600, I would have payed actual money for the game. But using Stella is good enough, I suppose.
  2. In 1976, Sega released the game "Heavyweight Champ". It is called the first fighting game in gaming history. Like Computer Space, this historical game has not been dumped to MAME yet. The issue is that there is a lack of chips. Can we get this game archived and playable for everyone? If there is still some of these machines left.
  3. Coming soon...AtariFMV, an innovative programming trick for the Atari 2600 Video Computer System! This is a placeholder logo. It might change during development. The idea? Well, it will be used to "emulate" videos in the Atari 2600. It might be used to port over Laserdisc games to the underpowered system, creating brand new programming tricks, allowing bigger games. The first game to use this new technology is "Dragon's Lair 2600". The goal is to make a accurate port of the arcade game. I am considering making a team for the tech to work properly. And footage? Well, the project is currently under consideration. The project should come out sometime either in late 2018 or early 2019. (UPDATE: I forgot to say that it might have audio that resembles CD quality audio. (Basically, think Quadrun's voice on a greater scale.) If it came out in mid 2019 or later, don't be too surprised. Thank you.)
