Hello! Occasional lurker since around 2000. I've been interested in having a play with the original 2600 Burgertime port, however it appears that there may be multiple revisions of the cart, from what I've read on this website, quick excerpt: "Evidently 2 versions of the 2600 cart exist. Later production runs added a choice of difficulty levels using the TV TYPE switch (B/W = easy, COLOR = hard) to fix a bug where the eggs and dogs were taller than they should be and they could catch the Chef when they were walking on the plank below him." I see that there appear to be a couple of label versions of the cart: Both of which are documented in AtariAge's database. To the best of my investigative skills, there is a HTML manual for the M-Network (blue label) cart, which indicates that there is no change in difficulty level. Going by this logic I guess I might deduce that the INTV (white label) cart would be the one with the "B/W-Col" difficulty switch and hence also the updated code to remove bugs. I'd be making these conclusions based on 1) The HTML manual is definitely for the correct cart version - and 2) The information on the above website regarding the bugs, is factual. Would be interested to hear any confirmations about this, thanks for reading!

Hi All, Occasional lurker since about 2000. Man this website has been up for a while! Australian 2600 user here, around 7 years ago I replaced my PAL system with an NTSC system. Subsequently re-aquired most of my games, just have a couple left which I'm curious - if there may be another user out there interested in a direct swap: HERO Bump n Jump I have a few others that are not 'critical' but if we are swapping the above and the below happen to also be in your possession - then happy to also direct swap while we're at it: Cross Force Dig Dug ET Street Racer Superman Boxing Thanks for reading!
