Atari 5200 chips

[Scooter83]

Someone offered these to me as a lot and make an offer if interested. Does anyone know anything about these from the board style and writing on the labels? Tempest I bet would know for sure. But I figure I'd ask here

I don't know anything about them but it seems, since they use "PAM" that they could be possible pre-production prototypes. They might have also been used during demonstrations of the 5200 before it was called "5200". So you have Centipede, Pac-Man, Jungle Hunt, and Space Dungeon. Have you tried them out yet to see if they work? Then again they might be just regular production runs that used cheaper ROMs but are missing their shell for one reason or another.

There's your answer.

Internal bootlegs basically.
