Ok, I watched it on a small telly back in the nineties on over-used VHS-tape, together with nerdy pals eating chips and laughing hard so I had to dodge snot...

So I thought I’d gotten hold of all the highly advanced 2600 titles - Radar Lock, Solaris, Tank Command, Tunnel Runner... only to learn about ‘Robot Tank’... So I hope it’s quality!

Not good, not good; have only 7800, no 2600.
On the positive side; I have PAL, Secam and NTSC 7800s...

The book is bit more extensive though...
But whats there (that is on the Lynx version) is quality, and at least generally faithful to the book (even though the solutions of the puzzles of course are novel, and not like in novel).

Finally gor the modded Sega Master in the mail. Yes, sound is much better on certain games, but playing 60hz on PAL is awesome. Out Run smooth?

run a retro-game-website...

Oh, - frustrating that ‘newer’ 2600 games comes in PAL and NTSC versions. Got River Raid 2 and Spider Fighter; both good, but they were on different regions... aaarggh

No, I have three 7800s: PAL, Secam and NTSC, but I need to use the rigth cartridge on the right old-school-setup (PAL/Secam vs NTSC), which is sort of irritating...
Loved both 2600-games: River Raid 2 (PAL/Secam) and Spider Fighter (NTSC).
Spider Fighter is like a million times better than Space Invaders... being the same type of game
