ROM: Spaceknight sounds familiar. I may have a comic book with that title. Any interest?

 

 

I have that whole series... 75 or so issues. I actually love that character. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Mantlo is quite a guy.

If you can get some money buy the stella adapter (here at atari age store) and play with the original joysticks nd paddles on your PC. It's awesome, best money I ever spent.

I have considered this and may get the stella adapter some day. For the time being I enjoy playing the ROMS using a Krok cart and my video arcade II. I also have the Harmony cart on order which I can use on the 7800. I grew up playing Atari on a four switch woody and would also like to reacquire one of those.

Thanks. Isn't that supposed to be a Parker Bros. game? Wonder why it's in a Telesys shell

I guess you can add many games from the Amiga Power Play series to that list. Games like 3-D Ghost Attack exist and have been dumped, but not released (yet?).

Yeah, I didn't mention those due to them never having been officially announced as 'found' but they do exist.

They exist and have been dumped.

Alex Leavens did some Telesys titles as well.

Actionauts is the only one I can think of that has not already been mentioned.

Actionauts was dumped and uploaded to a certain torrent site but you are correct in that Rob has not yet officially released the rom.

Rob Fulop was going to release the ROM when all the carts were sold. Did he ever sell out of them?

I know he was close to selling them all. I should write him again.

I know the Haunted Adventure Trilogy Rom still hasn't been released. The first two are available in the forums, but not the whole thing. I'm really looking forward to whenever The final version of the trilogy gets dumped. I want to try part 3.

Pancake Boy and Snaperoo.

Pancake Boy and Snaperoo.

No comment as to whether these have been dumped..

Uh.. some of those haven't been dumped or publicized, but others like red sea crossing are only rumored to exist - they may be vaporware or even hoaxes.

 

 

 

And snaperoo/pancake boy are colecovision games anyway. And very expensive. I know this one guy who might be able to hook you up. Oh he's got sunshine lady too

Snaperoo and Pancake Boy don't exist; they're figments of some nutcase's imagination (and a running gag with console game collectors everywhere). I suspect Sunshine Lady has the same or a similar story.

 

Pancake Boy (see subheading "The Message" under "What's Happening in the Newsgroup?"). There was a transcript of the message on Usenet but the Google link to it is dead now. There's probably a working link to an mp3 of the actual message around somewhere.

Most of them exist, but are not available yet.

Red Sea Crossing does exist, btw.

 

That one is no rumor.

 

Others are just vaporware, like 9 to 5.

It's been on AtariAge from the beginning:

While 9 to 5 hasn't been confimed to exist, it has not been confirmed to be vaporware either. None of those games I see listed (apart from Pancake Boy, etc) have been confirmed to never exist (which would me my defintion of true "vaporware", although I suppose that's subjective).

[Rom Hunter]

...although I suppose that's subjective.

Yes, it is.

 

Pancake Boy has also never been confirmed not to exist.

 

As long as nobody comes up with any proof of existence, it's vaporware in my book.

 

Proof of non-existence is too philosophical for me.

"Pancake Boy" was not announced at the CES or mentioned in company literature (as many of those titles were, including 9 to 5).

Suit yourself, but treating any and all unreleased titles as "vaporware" is not accurate, and acting as if there's no more chance that 9 to 5 exists than there is a chance that some random game made up by "Seamus O'Toole" exists is just silly. 9 to 5 and Six Pack may not exist, but it is highly probable that they do (or at least did at one point).

That's not what I do.

 

IMO an unreleased title that's proven to exist is certainly not vaporware.

Agreed.

 

9 to 5 and Six Pack may not exist, but it is highly probable that they do (or at least did at one point).

I don't think so.

 

These were never shown and there's no proof of any WIPS.

 

Hence vaporware to me.
