Atari Expansion Module Compatiblity?

[Kamshaft]

On my cvaddict.com site I was thinking of adding a list of Atari 2600 games that DON'T work on the expansion module. So far, some Activision titles don't work.

 

Does the Harmony cart work on the module?

 

Any ideas and guidance is appreciated.

I have not found a 2600 game that doesn't work with the Expansion Module. The Harmony cart works great, and I have not found any game files that don't work with Harmony.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre ROM works on Harmony cart? I don't think the cart works on the expansion module.

Well, as far as the Activision carts, they just needed a good'ol fashioned cleaning. Can't get "Pressure Cooker" to work, but works on a real 2600. But the others work now. Maybe a socket issue. To Be Continued.

Texas chainsaw massacre definitely works on the harmony. I don't remember if I played it on an Atari, the expansion module, or both.

There were some odd shaped Atari 2600 cart shells that were not compatible with the Expansion Module #1 Atari Interface and to remedy this situation Coleco made a cartridge extender adapter that would plug into the EM#1's cart port and then the cartridge plugged into the extender. Unfortunately, this was not very well publicized and the only way to get the extender was if you called Coleco to complain about this issue with some 2600 carts. Aside from that, Coleco did supply the extender free of charge.

 

They VERY RARELY come up for sale or auction and when they do, there usually is a pretty good bidding war!

Jawbreaker doesn't fit in my expansion module, so I can't play it unless I modify the cart. I believe all Tigervision games have this problem.
