Thomas Jentzsch Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Besides Actionauts, was anything remarkable added? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) Besides Actionauts, was anything remarkable added? Not really. I did my best for River Raid SECAM and some never before .binned PAL originals, but alas. And some to be included ROMs I don't have permission for yet. I did some renaming and added a new folder (1977-1992 PAL versions of NTSC originals) for the Harmony Cart, though. First priority now is to have the left over [a]lternate ROMs checked for their exact differences. Your help with that would be great.

Thomas Jentzsch Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I think I have reported this before, but: Boom Bang (AKA Crackpots) (HES) (PAL).bin Challenge (HES) (PAL).bin Wall Defender (AKA Wall Break) (HES) (PAL).bin are all containing another game.

Rom Hunter Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) I think I have reported this before, but: Boom Bang (AKA Crackpots) (HES) (PAL).bin Challenge (HES) (PAL).bin Wall Defender (AKA Wall Break) (HES) (PAL).bin are all containing another game. Yes, I know. And I thought about that for quite some time. But the physical cartridge mentions only the first game and warns people not to switch the difficulty switch to the 'B' position (because then the other game will pop up): http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-2600-vcs-boom-bang_7917.html Also the manual only describes one game. I want to stay as close to the actual cart as possible in my .bin names. The 2 Pak Special .bins contain both names: http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-2600-vcs-2-pak-special-motocross-boom-bang_15631.html That's why I left the second name out.

Thomas Jentzsch Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Crazy! You get two games but should not try the 2nd one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) Crazy! You get two games but should not try the 2nd one. Yes, I never understood this. It's one of these mysteries. I bet a lot of people were surprised to discover the hidden game under the B position back then. Imagine an Australian kid ready to play a game of Challenge and then suddenly this dude pops up on screen: http://www.atarimania.com/2600/screens/surfer_s_paradise.gif Edited January 1, 2017 by Rom Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
