djpubba Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I looked for a list of these and couldn't find one anywhere so I started my own. My incentive for wanting this list was that I have a VCS POP and the games for it are unmarked. This would also aid anyone who came across caseless-games or label-less carts and needed to ID the game without having a way to power up the game to see what it was. Plus, I've found that sometimes powering up a game is not always enough to identify exactly which game it is (Casino or Blackjack, Human Cannonball or Cannon Man?). Without further adieu, here's what I've found so far. co11201 Combat co11202 Air Sea Battle co11203 Star Ship co11205 Outlaw co11206 Slot Racers co11207 Canyon Bomber co11211 Race co11212 Street Racer co11218 3D Tic Tac Toe co11221 Video Olympics co11222 Breakout co11223 Baseball co11224 Basketball co11225 Football co11227 Human Cannonball co11228 Bowling co11229 Sky Diver co11233 Night Driver co11234 Golf co11239 Othello co11261 Basic Math co12008 Super Breakout co12009 Defender co12010 Warlords co12013 Adventure co12015 Demons to Diamonds co12016 Soccer co12017 Backgammon co12030 Circus Atari co12031 Superman co12032 Space Invaders co12035 Maze Craze co12036 Video Checkers co12038 Missile Command co12041 Superman co12045 Video Chess co12046 Pac-Man co12047 Submarine Commander co12048 Video Pinball co12050 Berserk co12052 Casino co12054 Haunted House co12055 Yar's Revenge co12058 Math Gran Prix co12062 Hangman co12937 Dodge 'Em co16440 Realsports Baseball co16449 Asteroids 3rd party: cn45160 Venture cn55210 DKjr cn55237 Tapper cn55238 Tapper cn55241 Spy Hunter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranthulfr Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 It looks like the model numbers on this old VGR Atari cart list match up with the ROM list you compiled. The last 2 digits are the same at least. Maybe it has some info you can use: http://videogames.org/html/2600Stuff/2600vgrlist.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djpubba Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 Ah there is some good crossover, thanks! I bet the first three digits on the ROM part number have some special meaning while the last two digits are tied to the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heihachi_73 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Long time between posts... I'm just going to bump this, as there doesn't seem to be any other alternative, but is there a list of part numbers for the ROM chips themselves? The above link is long gone these days, and on archive.org (July 2003 link) it seemed to only be a list of the part numbers you'd find on the labels anyway like CX2601 for Combat. Yes, I know it's a pain to have to desolder the RF shielding just to read them, but here's four random carts to start with (all are in well used/poor condition with the labels already damaged so no value lost opening them). Surprisingly, not even MAME has any info when it comes to documenting the chips. Midnight Magic (PAL version, red label, CX129) PCB: C011885 REV G KALEXCK368 1088 94V-0 ATARI ©1978 The 0 in C011885 is slashed on this particular PCB, so it's most likely meant to be a zero and not the letter O. The 0 in 1088 looks like a back-to-front C. (the 0 is slashed so it's most likely a zero and not the letter O) ROM chip: C300046-129A ©ATARI 1986 RP2C12 1008 38 8B4 A0 Midnight Magic also has 129 stamped in red on the RF shield (obviously the game ID since it matches the label). Plaque Attack (Activision, AX-027) PCB: ©1980 ACTIVISION AG-910-02D REV D ROM chip: 33511 8334DPP AG-027-21 ©1978 AMD ©1983 ACTVSN Plaque Attack didn't actually have any RF shielding. Not sure if it's a PAL release (I'm in Australia) or a US import - PAL versions of Activision games usually have the ID as EAX-xxx (E for Europe). The cartridge is dead so I can't test it (I accidentally let out the magic smoke 15 or so years ago when I was testing a faulty 2600, had the cartridge opened for cleaning, put the bare board into the console and forgot that the chip side is supposed to face the back of the console!) Combat (PAL, picture label, CX2601) PCB: C010789 ATARI ©78 M ROM chip: 9316B-7A13 C012501A 8217 CEA © 1978ATARI Asteroids (PAL, picture label, CX2649) PCB: C011885 REV F ATARI © 1978 ROM chip: 8151 C49005 C017449A-03 ©ATARI1981 RF shield also has 449 printed on it twice as well as E-B stamped into the metal.

Ballblaɀer Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 You'll find many of the part numbers you're seeking in the Atari EIS item master list, found here. You won't find anything for later releases like Midnight Magic since the document is dated January of 1984, but the master list is a good starting point, anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechnoTrickster Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) Spider Fighter (Activision, AX-021) PCB: ©1980 ACTIVISION AG-910-02D REV D ROM chip: AMI 8302ZD S68A332 KOREA ©1983 ACTVSN AG-021-01 I just came across your post while looking up information on the Spider Fighter chip. No RF shield on the cartridge similar to your Plaque Attack cartridge. My Spider Fighter cartridge is also dead, so I popped it open to see, so at least it has some use for the chip information.
