  1. I've got a couple of short MPG files too from this game showing the awesome animation, very cool.
  2. Was this ever released as a cart or CD? It seems as if quite a bit of this was completed but it's not even listed in the Jag section at AtariAge's rarity guide. Here are some pics from my archives I got some time ago...
  3. Has anyone been able to get MESS to work with Jag ROMs? I did get the directories to identify the list of games but when I click one I get a "jagboot.rom missing" error. I downloaded a boot file (somewhere???) named exactly that [128K] and put it in the BIOS folder and still get the same error. I'm using 0.78 GUI version.
  4. The arcade game was released in 1994, confirmed at KLOV, about the same time if not after the Jag version. Remember that in fact the Jag version was shown in late '93 in the earliest Jaguar ads before getting many changes that delayed release.
  5. my NUON setup: Toshiba SD2300 Logitech controller 'Tempest 3000, Space Invaders XL, Freefall, Merlin Racing' traded 'Next Tetris' for a 'Ballistic' and a rare 'Iron Soldier 3' I got off eBay some time ago...
  6. It's this weekend, I'll be there and I hope to see plenty of other Atari enthusiests there too
  7. I do recall that Turbo Sub was being developed as an arcade game that never got fully completed, even though several cabinets were assembled. heres a pic I found in my archives...
  8. there was a lengthy post about this a few months ago... http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.p...tezumas+revenge
  9. I have a disk I bought at EB-Games a couple years ago that allows import games to play. Works great
  10. yeah, same here... I think $20 is a deal even though I own a couple of those games already.
  11. The recent game "Wade Hixton's Counter Punch" is a lot like Punch Out, fun but its also difficult at times.
  12. I recently purchased a 'reconditioned' PS2 that I had lots of trouble getting to work with purple-back disks and sometimes with PS1 games as well, although silver-back games and DVDs worked fine. solution: I put the console in the vertical upright position (Sony logo and power lights at the top) and it works fine now, I rarely get the annoying Disk Read Error message anymore.
  13. This avatar image is one of the images on the PC game "Atari Arcade Hits vol.2", from the last days Hasbro still owned the company. Infogrammes renamed the 2 disk set as "Atari Anniversary" and that may have the image too (dont know, I don't have that one).
  14. If I remember correctly, won't that program have trouble with Commodore BASIC too because string variables can only be up to 2 characters? not positive but I think so...
  15. Are you using these STs on televisions or on monitors? I'm assuming you mean TVs, the rolling screens is because of the difference in sync between 50Hz (NTSC) and 60Hz (PAL) which the ST can do both of, as a lot of ST games come from both USA and Europe, they set the ST to a specifed sync when starting the game. On an SC1224 monitor either mode stays stable.
  16. I doubt that even that's possible. On computers like the Sinclair even an all text program would need to be reworked. anyway, I needed a good laugh
  17. how did '3 on 3 Basketball' end up on that list? thats not even a videogame http://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.p...=0&game_id=6782
  18. the Co-Jag arcade games are... Area 51 Maximum Force Area 51/Max Force Duo Area 51 Site 4 also...(unreleased) Fishing Frenzy Freeze Vicious Circle
  19. I have Merlin Racing, it is a fun game with cutesy cartoon graphics, and you get to pick up weapons and powerups. there's a mission mode too that I have never completed.
  20. this site has a lot of downloadable Jag ROMs, how legit are they? http://www.romnation.net/index.php/roms/atarijaguar/
  21. 'Blazin Lazers' and it's unofficial sequel 'Super Star Soldier' on the TG16 system, these vertical shooters rock!
  22. I had a 4-switch system that I sold through the classifieds in '82 to buy a 5200 with the money.
  23. Tengen was a subsidary of Atari Games, used on the console sales of Atari Games' coin-op titles. Warner Communications was the parent company. Nintendo was not an excluve lincensee by any means, in fact Tengen and Nintendo went to court several times about the NES lockout-chip issue and especially over the rights to sell Tetris for the NES. Tengen released several games for the Sega Genesis (including an awesome Gauntlet). There was never any relationship between Tengen and the 7800 but they did give all licenses to Atari Corp for the Lynx.
