Sounds like me. If you spot me again, come say hello. When summer finally arrives I'll wear my AA shirt to the swap meets.

Amstrad Notepad Computer NC100 with (grubby) PSU, box, pouch and manual. A$5. I had to open up the keyboard to unstick the Function key, now it works perfectly.

Thrust is still in my 2600, I just need to set some time aside to have another go The hardest level really is hard...

Nice! I can see why it was chosen.

You're going to regret that. I passed up a PC Engine controller then I found a PC Engine without a controller. I passed up an Intellicart, then I found an Intellivision about two weeks after the last cart was sold.

Indeed. Lik-sang sell a range of cables compatible with the Saturn: http://www.lik-sang.com/list.php?category=...y=178&start=30&

Sorry, should have been clearer. If BASIC isn't disabled, the graphics are corrupted. If BASIC is disabled everything works fine but the rain is green.

Seems fine. Keep in mind that I haven't played it on an emulator in NTSC mode or anything. But I certainly didn't feel like response time was being affected.

Okay, I got it running on an unmodified PAL Atari 800XL last night after I logged off. * Speed issues regarding playability negligible. * Speed issues regarding music, well, it did seem a little slow, but I listen to drum and bass, so who knows. However, the rain was green. Now, I was only using RF, but on easy with the large rain it didn't look baby blue to me, definately green. I thought it was corrupting until I booted with the option button down, then it was fine. Nice to finally see my Llama in action If you want me to test anything, just say.

I've been meaning to dig out my 800XL, so this might finally be the push I need. I can get it running on a real PAL Atari 8-bit with my SIO2PC cable. Haven't hooked anything up in a long time, but I believe there's a free Windows XP compatible Atari drive emulator to suit the SIO2PC cable. I will try and get the system all hooked up for you as soon as possible. Maybe a few days to find all the bits.

I used to buy bulk stuff cheap, keep the interesting bits and sell the rest for more than I paid for the whole lot. Sometimes much more. Now I just have a full time job. The question isn't how I afford it, it's how I have time to enjoy it. This is true for most of my friends -- we can all purchase far more entertainment product than we have time to enjoy.

Box-o-Atari atuff. A$10.

Inapproriate avatar aside, thanks for the heads up. I think I'm finally willing to shell out for a VCSp.

Or maybe no-one told us about them. This is the first I've heard of this limit of two colours per eight pixel segment. Unfortunately I don't have time to work on any more screens, or fixing my two exisiting submissions.

My cart is showing no stock. Has there been a delay?

I got nothing

My first two entries...

68cm Phillips Matchline.

Perfect, I'll get Star Fire at the same time...

See Thomas, that's how you ask if anyone else is participating in the competition.

Nevermind, image size problem.

Ignoring the major drop in image quality, when I try to load splash.pp into pp2c all I get is the attached message.

Nah Thomas, just give me the prize now, obviously nobody else is up for the challenge

I will be explicit as to the environment that I play the game under. And hopefully I'll be able to put some reviews together this weekend.
