BigO Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 (edited) I really like the LCD in the cart slot (could use a little bit of trim to finish it out). As I like to over-complicate things, I'd have tried to put the display in the end of a cartridge so it looks like there's a cartridge in the machine. There'd be much less space for the LCD doing that. Very nice work. I've seen some 2600 mods that I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole. This ain't one of them.

Wickeycolumbus Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Very cool! Are you using the PIC to emulate bank switching hardware? What schemes does it support? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtrucco Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 Very cool! Are you using the PIC to emulate bank switching hardware? What schemes does it support? PIC only feed a RAM chip. The W27C512 emulates F6 and F8. It's possible to emulate any scheme just changing this W27 for another cartridge hardware (i.e. Tigervision or Parker Bros) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frogstar_robot Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Forgot to translate this message. PRONTO=READY. When you are selecting the game, the 2 display lines show the complete name of the rom stored in the SD. After press the emulator select button the "Ready" message appears and you can play the game. I recorded a video and post in Youtube one year ago with a huge explanation (Portuguese only, sorry) If English is a second language for you then I'll explain why so many of us like the PRONTO. In English as spoken by Americans, "pronto" is borrow-word slang from our neighbors to the south for "Right Away!" as in "Get your ass in here pronto!" So we basically LOVE the idea of telling the 2600 to fire up our favorite games....pronto! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pepax Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 So we basically LOVE the idea of telling the 2600 to fire up our favorite games....pronto! Not only you Americans... Maybe he should change the prompt to "Pronto (adj.)" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtrucco Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 Just uploaded a video to YouTube Can't recorded more, because my camera's battery is empty I speak portuguese in the video, but is very easy to follow the explanation. I'll post this Atari in an Auction in eBay. Post the link here soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwinChargers Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Could it be placed on Chase the Chuckwagon (or Game Gavel), or do they have the same type of policies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuppicide Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) He has it on MercadoLibre I see.. he wants $600 R$, which is about $339 US. http://produto.merca...-1000-jogos-_JM I'd be interested if it weren't so expensive. It's also PAL - M I'm guessing since it's Polyvox and Brazil. Is that easy to get an adapter to make it into NTSC?
