I would like to do a bowling type game using 7800 Basic. What would be the best angle to use that will fit the 7800 screen? Will it look good with a side view like the 2600 Bowling, or go with a top-down view. I am not sure how to do a 3D view, making the ball shrink and computing the screen positions. I have to keep it simple with something 2-Dimensional. I do not think that scrolling be good ideal, you need to see the bowler are pins throwing the ball down the lane. Anybody have any suggestion?

GIMP!!!

Are you sure its not suppose to be Next Bonus at 030000. and the extra 3 is being displayed on the screen by mistake? May need to check the length of the "NEXT BONUS AT" message that is to be copied to the screen?

Another Pac-Man game ported. Good Job! We all Would like to see more games like this done.

Hey everybody, body of mine sent me a link to 7800 Basic Site, Got a copy and I tried a few things, and tested it in the emulator. I came here looking for some information. I would like to do some conversions of something made from other systems and never done for 7800. First go with something simple like a Bowling game, then go with the harder stuff. I would like to start designing the sprites for the bowler and the ball. I am thinking about using characters lane, gutter and markings. and maybe something going on the sides. Should I do the pins with characters or sprites?
