  1. The Game Modem PlusCart exclusive Fluid City B Side Throttle Control is an interactive Atari 2600 game that runs at up to 60 FPS of full screen animation. Game Loader the Atari 2600 Emulator for the Commodore 64 I am working on is running the game at full speed and my camera cannot keep up with the CRT Television image at 60 FPS of animation: This is true Atari 2600 emulation on the C64 I haven't changed any code in the game from the link above, Game Loader dynamically recompiles the source to add Commodore Graphics to Atari 2600 games and loads them on the C64 as standalone binary. VICE jammed for some reason but not the real hardware this time, sometimes it's the other way around.
  2. Commodore Business Machines released a PET that could increase the screen refresh rate via an undocumented register address. On later hardware models this undocumented feature was revised and changing the address with the same software could damage the PET and cause a chip to overheat. In this demo video of the Game Loader with the debugger attached (an Atari 2600 emulator for the Commodore 64) there are sparkles on the real hardware like were seen on the CBM PET where the refresh rate could be increased: Technical Details on the debugger and the freezing bug: The debugger is attached and throwing SYMBOLS from a shell in the upper left and there is an extra 2% time loop reserved if things get tight. I don't think the overhead from the debugger is causing the pause, because it's intermittent. Corruption in the Zero Page The Commodore has a lot of activity marshalling the Kernel and there is corruption of data on the zero page. I keep chasing these programs to either remove their access to the zero page or coordinate which programs should participating. Kernel sub programs with a legitimate purpose, get to keep their registers in low RAM and I have moved several Shadow registers and fast RAM variables around in the zero page to accommodate those. Some are very tricky and corrupt a value temporarily and then pull it back out of the stack and put it back; I think that's what's causing the freeze when it happens, it's not always the same spot very difficult to track down. I added a debugger to the emu to assist in finding them and reviewing the maps which are very helpful. Here's the Atari 2600 program code the Game Loader emulator is running, you can see the Shadow registers are already implemented, some partially. Soft collision detection with the sprites and the tile playfield is working in the vid, but not the hardware collision because I have not wrapped the bare metal API for those yet though there is a stub for it already present in the sub Framework so that no errors on compile will happen. Mapping the switches on the console The Joysticks are already mapped and SWCHB is getting mapped to the function keys on the right side of the Commodore with perhaps shift-lock for the BW/color toggle. Thoughts and ideas welcome on this interesting emu! More details on the architecture are here I plan to release the Game Loader emu/game transformer after more thorough testing to ensure there is no chance of damaging a C64 by frying a chip like with the PET by pushing the VIC-II to emulate a 1 Mhz system on 1 Mhz platforms.
  3. Running Atari 2600 programs on my NTSC C64! This is a Cross Compiler for the C64 that runs Atari 2600 programs written in Assembly and BASIC (SuperCharger BASIC and Flashback BASIC) with no changes to the BASIC or Assembly code. This is accomplished by abstracting the Atari 2600 virtual machine RUNTIME including a soft ANTIC blitter like Atari home computers bringing display list technology to the Commodore 64! Double the fun of racing the beam with the classic Television Threading Model on the Commodore 64 allows game loops that repeat 30 or 60 times per second with full screen animation each frame creating faster action scenes than are usually seen with the C64 design. The rich BASIC provides graphics and sound support and a camera object for panning around the virtual world, or with abstract Assembly programming (ASDK api). The next version will add color and audio support, check out some of the Atari 2600 BASIC and Assembly games that will be supported online here: http://relationalframework.com/Atari2600gamesonline.htm The Commodore 64 and the Atari 2600 Video Computer System are the two most popular retro computer consoles, write programs that run on both! Details: The soft blitter, camera object and display lists are running and functional, I dropped the compiled Atari 2600 BASIC Assembly code and the bitmap right into the 64 Framework and it ran the same in the abstracted VM on my Commodore 64. I can cross compile some of the BASIC at this point and am adding the RUNTIME subsystems that are missing. Adding sprites, sound and color next... the Tracker/Sequencer for the TIA chiptunes is going to be tremendous fun on the 6581! C64 Extra tile detail: The VM abstracts each 1 bit textured phat tile the TIA draws into 4 characters on the VIC-II text screen allowing both tiled patterns and background patterns to be drawn, I chose the same graphic for the 4 background tile quadrants in the demo. There's inspiring concept innovation with prior art if a prototype was ever produced!
  4. We have new shipping options, Using couriers to ship to Miami (Air and Sea) and from Miami using Usps or similar. for the Sea option saves a lot of money to send larger packages (they Charge by the cubic feet) So decided to list some Hardware on Shipping Boxes. Thia form of Shipping avoids the dreadfull customs officers who opens every game, they can do that in a whole shipping container. But they take a while to arrive, (even the air option). I can also sell individually or several different items. Boxes will be protected with cardboard outside (no shipping stickers on your original box) Shipping costs not included, need the address to quote. Vcs Cartridge Adaptor, Sealed box of 4 160$ (50$ Each) without shipping. ColecoVision Expansion Module #1 Sealed box of 4, 220$, 65$ each without shipping. Atari Trak-Ball Controller (made in Mexico) Shipping boxes are not sealed (tape glue dissolved) and the shipping box do not provide enough protection, so is best to sell them by unit. 70$ each without shipping. Compumate Box of 6 (Consecutive serial numbers) 600$, 120$ each without shipping. cp/m card for apple II New & Sealed, 180$ without shipping. New Additions: Atari 410 Tape Drive, Sealed box of 2 (Probably need a rubber belt replacement) 120$ without shipping. Sealed Box of Two Atari 5200 Consoles, probably the shorter box model 3500$ Shipped OBO. Not Common at all from Venezuela. Sealed Box of 2 800XL 400$ Plus Shiping. Box of 2 New The Proggrammer Set for Atari XL 80$ Plus Shipping.
  5. I am looking to get another set or two of the keyboard controllers. Also, I will be glad to take other controllers (paddles, video touch) off your hands. Let me know so we can discuss prices. Thank you!!
  6. Hi everyone! I am attempting to play an Atari 2600 on a modern-day television. Specifically, on the LG - 77" Class CX Series OLED 4K UHD Smart webOS TV. Its specs are a little different than your average digital TV, I believe. At least different enough to not be compatible with the recommendations I see for using an upscaler. Because it's not a 60hz TV; it's 120hz. And apparently that causes...interface problems with upscalers most ppl are using. So that's fun, right? LOL.... There is also some question as to HDMI being used, tho I am not entirely clear on the reasons associated with that. This model encompasses both HDMI 2.0 as well as HDMI 2.1 (thank goodness)....which other LG OLED models do not. Apparently HDMI 2.0 is getting "phased out"....but this model, thankfully, still allows its use! Something else of note....is the "Resolution" with this model. It's listed at 2160p (not 1080p)......is that unusual? I expected it to be 1080p. And since that is double what other models I've seen list, how does that impact use of an upscaler, or even use of an Open Source Scan Converter (OSSC) in this process of getting the Atari 2600 to play (well) on this model of TV? Here are the full specs of the TV in question, the one that will be used to play the Atari 2600 on.

Please let me know what should be used; the things to get and use, etc....even if they are not OSSC or an upscaler. I just want to know how to play Atari again, on a modern TV; how that gets done though eludes me. Pls forgive the n00bishness. <3 Thanks in advance for any and all help!

  8. Here is an issue that I've seen before in one form or another and I thought I would talk about it here while working on a earlier era 2600 heavy sixer last night. The system was sent in for refurbishment. In this case that is all the original electrolytic capacitors being replaced out, new DC power jack, new voltage regulator etc. But a problem was reported and confirmed during testing of the console. What was the issue? In this case it was an issue with the player 2 controls. Specifically, player 2's fire button was always registering as being pressed. Easiest game to demonstrate this was Air-Sea Battle as when you reset the game to start, player 2 is constantly shooting the entire time even without a controller plugged in. Part of the refurbishment process is changing some components near the joystick port per an Atari service bulletin from back in the day for ESD protection. It is the last part in regards to the ESD protection that needs focus, because it was found that static electricity from players hands when inserting and unplugging the joysticks, would cause static discharge to the joystick pins. Luckily for most this is pretty harmless but one component in particular on the heavy sixers is very sensitive to this and prompted Atari to create the service bulletin to address it. The specific component to be checked is labeled as A203 on the main board. While the original IC chip has an Atari PN labeled on it, the chip is a bog standard 4050 IC that was common on the 8-bit line, 5200, some 2600s and lots of other devices. So common in fact, that the 4050s are still made today. However, on the heavy sixers, the trigger lines (Fire button) goes through the 4050 chip and in turn relayed back to the TIA. The most basic way it works is that +5v is always present on pin 6 of the joystick port which is the trigger line for each controller. When you press the fire button, you ground this connection causing the +5 to drop to near 0. This is what is referred to as going from Hi to Lo and is how the system knows when controller inputs are being used. In the case of this 2600, pin 6 from joystick port 2 was not showing any voltage from it and as a result, this was being interpreted by the logic in the system as if the fire button was already being pressed down. The basic troubleshoot process here is to verify the traces from pin 6 back to pin 7 on the 4050 IC chip and ensure there are no broken traces. If that checks out, then the culprit is down to two component at that point being The 4050 IC or the TIA itself. Anyway, per the service manual flow charts and because I found no issues with the traces on the board, I removed the original 4050 IC chip, installed a socket and new 4050. Let it burn in test for several hours last night and verified that player 2 is now behaving properly and not so short tempered. So in this case it was an easy fix but also a warning on why ESD was and still is an issue to this day. In this case, an errant spark from someones hand in the past damaged something internally in the 4050 IC causing it to no longer function properly in regards to the player 2 fire button. Here is the replaced 4050 and socket. Although this 4050 in the pic did have to swapped out with a new Ti branded one as this one would cause graphical issues once the system was warmed up. Here is the soldering on the bottom where the socket was installed. Finally here is one of the capacitor/diode combos that the service bulletin has you install to help with ESD from the controller ports. This is the one installed at C237 for port 2. There is another combo like this installed at C236 for port 1 on the opposite side of the board. View the full article
  9. First, I know there are other threads about issues after doing a composite mod, but I haven't seen the issue I'm having. The composite mod I did was the one from tfw8bit. I followed the instructions for NTSC and it was done on a 4 switch model. I've included a picture of the issue I'm seeing. And before I did the mod it wasn't there. I've replaced the 2200uf capacitor and went back and checked all my solder joints. I'm at a loss as to where to look next. Any help would be appreciated.

  13. Greetings all... I'm currently auctioning a rare Atari 2600 cartridge from my collection: the unknown-before-2006 Atari Inc. picture label variant of Flag Capture. It's tested, working, and is NTSC. The auction is slated to end this Sunday at 4:30 PM Eastern. https://www.ebay.com/itm/304346745387 It's my educated guess that somewhere between five and seven of these are currently known to exist. This is the first time one has been put up for auction. The closest comparison is probably the Sears picture label Superman; that title is more well-known, but I don't think it's quite at the same level of rarity as this one. Thanks for having a look.
  14. Hi, This is a cool project of controlling Atari 2600 Missile command using your hands and fingers as motion controls The hands “creates” a virtual joystick on air that can impact the movement and the shooting of the player. The link for the video is : https://youtu.be/6-gNiK2leZ8 The project is based on Python, OpenCV , and Mediapipe The goal of the project was to create a functionality that replaces the traditional Atari 2600 joystick with our hands and fingers position using a camera . The code estimate the position of each hands , and calculate the X,Y axis to simulate directions and shooting, That transforms it to an action. The project also combines : pose estimation of the hands and fingers gesture, capturing the game image and sound , and merge it into a new window as one visual game (keeping the original sound). I added a link for the code in the video description, so you can download and enjoy it. Enjoy Eran
  15. Never opened, new in box Sears Tele-games console and original games, paddles and joysticks. Sears version of the classic Atari 2600. This is the 'heavy sixer' version made in Sunnyvale California. The box is unopened as shown in the pictures. All the original parts, manuals, games, controllers, paddles, joysticks, power supply and packaging is original and intact inside. Parents bought two of these, one for me and one for my sister growing up in the late 1970's. We only ever opened and played with one of them and this one was forgotten about at my parents house until recently when I found it in their attic. This is a rare find as I am sure anyone on this site would know. Asking $500 OBO. Contact me at Camberdan@icloud.com if interested
  16. ***Disclaimer: I purchased this controller with my own money and was not sent it to review. I don't get any sort of proceeds or compensation from the sale of these controllers, nor was I paid or compensated in any way for this review, and my thoughts on it are my own. Basically, you're getting my honest opinion*** Heya folks! Recently I found myself in need of a new joystick for my Atari 2600 (after snapping my second to last CX-40) so I decided to reach out to RetroGameBoyz.com to see if they could build me a custom Atari 2600 arcade stick. They offered several multi-button arcade sticks for the Atari 5200 and Atari 7800, but they didn't have a single button Atari 2600 dedicated stick. The owner of the company was really friendly and said he'd be happy to work with me to make a custom arcade stick to my liking, so we set to work designing a joystick and button layout template and after a bit of cooperative trial and error I think we settled on a very nice aesthetic and functional design and he got it all assembled and shipped out. After a little waiting for UPS to deliver it, my RetroGameBoyz custom Atari 2600 arcade stick arrived in the mail today, so here it is! It's pretty rare for me to not have any complaints about a product, but I think this one came out pretty darn awesome! The injection molded case (which measures 7.75" wide, 5.75" deep, and 3" tall) is just the right size to set over your knee without feeling cumbersome and the little rubber feet on the bottom grip rock solid if you want to set it down on a table or a lap desk. It feels extremely solid and hefty with no creaks or wobbles, and I think the light beige color really makes it look like an authentic Atari product from the early to mid 80's. The 3D printed top logo graphics plate and control panel plates are easily the smoothest feeling 3D prints I've ever seen and if I didn't know better I would honestly think this controller was a factory production item from back in the day. The 10 ft cord with case mounted tension pull really completes the look and there's nothing about this controller's appearance or feel that would ever make me think it was a handmade product and not a new old stock arcade stick from the 80's. As far as the controls go, the joystick is a high quality Sanwa JLF clone that I had RetroGameBoyz equip with a octagon shaped restrictor plate for precise control in both 4-way and 8-way games. It plays a mean game of River Raid but also works just as well for Ms. Pac-Man! The joystick spring tension feels just right too, not too light to flop around but also not strong enough to give you false inputs if you let the joystick go and allow it to snap back to center from any direction. The button is very nice as well, with a smooth snappy feel and very little pressure required to actuate the silent microswitch. It's not light enough to accidentally press just resting your finger on it, but after putting the button through it's paces with an hour of Plaque Attack I can safely say that it's extremely responsive and excellent for games that require high speed rapid tapping. Another neat feature is that the button comes equipped with a nice bright red LED that is powered off the +5 volt pin of the Atari 2600's controller port. All in all I'm absolutely thrilled with this arcade stick, and also happy to see that RetroGameBoyz liked my custom design enough to make it a regularly stocked item on their website! For the $65 they're pricing this at it's a serious steal of deal, and I'd recommend it to anyone in need of a good solid Atari 2600 controller that'll perform excellently whether you're just gaming for fun or playing competitively in the High Score Club. If you'd like to pick up one of these awesome little Atari 2600 arcade sticks for yourself here's the link to it on the RetroGameBoyz website: https://retrogameboyz.com/products/atari-7800-2600-arcade-stick-mold-injected-case
  17. A long time ago in a thread not all that far, far away I had a pretty sizable collection of games for a whole bunch of different systems, but due to a variety of life circumstances I ended up parting ways with all my collections over the past 3 years or so (you can find the full and rather lengthy story behind all that here if you're curious) and transitioned to playing all my games off EverDrives and optical drive replacement devices instead of original physical media. I've still got a real soft spot for Atari cartridges though, especially since the 2600 was the very first console I ever played growing up, and seeing as how the Atari 2600 is one of the very few systems that is still relatively affordable to collect for outside of a handful of pricier games I'd like (Pitfall II, H.E.R.O., Montezuma's Revenge, etc.) I've decided to start casually rebuilding my Atari 2600 collection to scratch that collecting itch and hopefully pick up some of the games that I wanted but never got back when I used to have my old collection while I'm at it! I won't be collecting for any other systems, just the Atari 2600, and I'm only going to be collecting games that I know I'll enjoy playing as well as the instruction manuals for them when I can find 'em affordably. I'm only buying cartridges with really nice condition labels (no rips, tears, deep scratches, or significant wear on the label edges but a bit of Actiplaque is alright) so they'll be enjoyable to both look at and play, and it should be fun watching watching the collection grow. My collecting budget is pretty meager, since I'm limiting myself to $60 a month on account of other hobbies I need to save funds for, but here's the games and manuals I have so far. As far as hardware goes, I've got a Light Sixer system with joysticks from an Atari Flashback 5 (the wired Flashback joysticks are definitely my favorite classic CX-40 style controllers) as well as some Best Electronics gold paddle controllers, Best Electronics light gun, a CX-80 Trak-Ball, and a QuickJoy foot pedal for those odd games like Stargate and Spy Hunter that require two controllers to be used at once. The foot pedal is super nice for those kind of games! Looking to the future I'm pretty happy with my hardware selection, though a few more joysticks and a spare Atari 2600 system or two certainly wouldn't hurt to have. A composite modded system to run through a RetroTINK for use on my modern TV would be nice, but I'm mainly going to be focusing on collecting games and manuals on a $60 a month budget. I'm all tapped out for December on account of a couple homebrew pickups currently on the way from the AtariAge store, but starting in January I'll be looking to acquire lots of common games to build my new collection! You can find my current wants list in the spoiler tag below
  18. ZX-81 pseudo hi-res graphics mode for SuperCharger BASIC I found an interesting way to do ZX-81 pseudo hi-res graphics in SuperCharger Disk BASIC writing this prototype for the 2022 BASIC programming contest! Here's the code and two versions of the Alpha build for Jupiter SS, one using pseudo hi-res and one using regular bitmapping: Jupiter_SS_Firestorm_GAMMA.bin BASIC10Liner2022Jupiter_Pseudo_Hi_Res_GAMMA.txt Added algorithmic chiptunes and parallax scrolling, ready for the BASIC contest! Manual and program design: Jupiter_SS_Firestorm_GAMMA_Instructions_and_program_design_20220320.txt Jupiter SS prior development builds: Jupiter_SS_Firestorm_BETA.bin Jupiter_SS_Alpha.bin Jupiter_psuedo_hires.bin Description: The BASIC listing uses either the visual sprite graphics or BASIC data statements, since the contest only allows line numbers and no visual ASCII art designers I used data statements from classic BASIC. A data statement with a series like $D5,$AE,$7C takes four bytes per byte and the BASIC 10 liner contest allows only 10 lines of 120 characters for the entire game. The pseudo hi-res mode allows a lot of data to be fit but is even more limiting with many bit patterns getting up converted to $FF by DASM behind the scenes limiting the bit patterns available to BASIC. But the ZX-81 pseudo hi-res technique works with the remainder! About pseudo hi-res: Clive Sinclair created an incredible learning machine with technology waiting to be explored with a unique design like the Atari 2600; pseudo-hires mode discovered on an unmodified ZX81 imparts a hand drawn texture look that adds more to this graphics mode. I had expected only the hilighted pattern substitution shown in the screenshot. There are many more occurring but there is still plenty of potential using the available patterns and substitutions for the missing ones, there is no other pattern substitution in the Alpha build yet so the pseudo hi-res sprite is looking like a Hammerhead with the FF's (11111111) showing where the substitution patterns are needed.
  19. Morning all, poster from Ireland here, TLDR version: I am utterly clueless when it comes to AV hook-ups for the original Odyssey (and also when it comes power networking more generally). Would really appreciate if someone could review my Youtube/Wikipedia research, so I don't destroy a vintage console. The Console: I have an original Magnavox Odyssey (1972) that I picked up from another guy living in Ireland. I don't know much about Magnavox's distribution history (was the idea of PAL consoles even a thing back in 1972? ) but I'm assuming it's a standard NTSC unit that was imported, as there's a sticker on the bottom saying 120V/60Hz. The guy I bought it from just had it out on display, so there's no game power cord or antenna game switch with it, and I'm just trying to figure out what my best options are to power it on (without wearing out the battery compartment), and connecting it to a CRT. Power (Problem): In Ireland, we run the UK-style "Type G" electrical sockets, that output a standard supply of 230 volts AC (frequency 50Hz). I do have a step-down transformer but would prefer not to use it if possible, as it heats up very quickly. So I guess what I'm looking for is a) a modern power supply that can accept an input range of 100-240V, 50/60 HZ), b) that's well suited to the MA1 console, and c) that has those Irish/UK style pins. Like I said, I don't have one of the original power supplies that Magnavox manufactured for the Odyssey (I have been waiting for a few months for one to pop up on eBay with no joy...), but in an earlier thread linked below, @Clong80 notes that the specs on the original power supply are: INPUT 117 VAC 50/60HZ OUTPUT 9 volts 400ma 3.5mm mono headphone jack Tip positive for polarity Power (Solution?) So after a bit of online browsing, I found this website that sells modern power supply adapters for the Atari 2600. The specs on this unit are: 9V DC 1A Tip: 3.5mm jack (Centre tip positive) https://www.retrosales.com.au/collections/atari-power/products/accessory-power-supply-atari-2600-power-supply-adaptor-pack-9v So that will supply more current than the console needs; I know these numbers don't need to match exactly, but is the difference (9V, 1A vs 9V, 400ma) reasonable enough? I'd also need a standard travel adapter to convert the Australian plug to UK pin-style. Found this unit on Amazon ("This Adapter does not convert Voltage. Please make sure your device supports 220-240 Voltage.") Per Jakob Schuler on YouTube, it looks like the Magnavox Odyssey needs a 2.5mm tip (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzXlJSa_VP4&t=6m22s), so I found this 3.5mm-to-2.5mm adapter on Amazon AV Hookup: I don't have one of the original antenna game switches with the hanging hooks, but my CRT doesn't accept NTSC RF anyway, so I don't think that would be the best option for me. However, it will accept NTSC through the composite ports. And I have an NTSC RF-to-composite conversion box, which works great either on its own or with composite switches. I've had no luck finding an original MA1 video cable like this one https://atariage.com/forums/uploads/monthly_06_2016/post-32949-0-81329000-1466475134.jpg On the TV end, the little RF adapters are obviously no problem to get from Amazon, but I understand that the other end which connects to the console is proprietary? (I'm not 100% sure about this). End of an entirely-too-long post Would be super grateful if anyone could advise me on 1) whether I've made any huge screw-ups in my choice of power accessories, and 2) how to find a video cable that will connect to the console Many thanks if you stuck through to the end of this post
  20. Hi, Did you ever think that the Atari joystick can be a wireless one ? This video is demo of a project that transforms and original Atari joystick to wireless Joystick The joystick signals are captured using an Adafruit 433 Arduino , with a lipo battery and On/Off switch. The Arduino transmit radio signal for each position of the joystick and for the button as well Another 433 Arduino "listens" to the radio signals , and transfer it a another Arduino micro that simulates signals of a joystick, connected to a raspberry Pi with an Atari emulator This cool and functionality gives us a smooth and fun and modern experience using an original joystick You can watch the video in this link : https://youtu.be/5quNEPNrHyw Enjoy Eran
  21. Hi, I am starting a new Virtual Pet homebrew, and would like to get everyone's input. So far I have gotten the pet sprite to appear on screen. Not sure what to work on next so feel free to let me know. I was going to animate the sprite bouncing left and right like the Tamagatchi pets. Binaries Updates 11-15-2021: Added bouncing effect to the pet similar to Tamagotch pets. Uploaded first binrary
