Good choice for a "Screensaver" cart

[supercat]

I'm not sure I agree %100, if there is part of the screen that is "off" and part that color cycles, the cycling part is still "ON" more that the rest.

 

True, but stuff that isn't very bright will 'burn in' so much more slowly than stuff which is at full brightness that it becomes essentially a non-issue.

 

A bigger issue for 2600 games, IMHO, would be distinction between the displayable screen and border/comb areas. If the displayable screen areas are cycling through bright colors, they would be burned in significantly more than the border areas.

Both points are probably true. I think that I'll stick with Star Raiders until I try out some of the other choices mentioned recently.

I need to clean up and make space before I have it where it will be running all the time.
