Quadrun Repro

[ApolloBoy]

I just played Quadrun on z26, and it's pretty good! Since it's so rare, I've decided to make a repro of it. It's easy right? I mean, all I have to do is get a common cart like Combat or Pac-Man, take out the guts, peel off the labels, burn an EPROM, put it on a new PCB, put it in the cart shell, then print the labels out, right? BTW, what kind of paper do I need to make a Quadrun label?

No, that doesn't work, you need a 8K bankswitched PCB do do it. The silver label can not be reproduced but you could print it on photo paper.

 

Easiest way is to have someone else make it for you.

 

*cough*

i don't think thats a good idea. Once 1 person does it and finds it works then people will follow then they'll get into the marketplace and hurt the real quadrun prices

[CPUWIZ]

LOL, Quadrun repros have been around for over 5 years, Hozer sold plenty of them.

Hmmm, thats news to me

[CPUWIZ]

I've made at least 10 of them myself.

Hey CPUWIZ could you post a pic of one. I've never seen one before I seriously had no idea 2600 repos were made. Yes I live under a rock

[CPUWIZ]

Here is one I made for Inky.

Woah, that looks real. Whats the difference other that inky's name. How would one know the one on ebay is real?

The reflective silver label.

I'll take one of those for reaching a 1000 posts (jk)

Then, how do I put the ROM on a bankswitched PCB? Or, how do I get a bankswitched PCB?

Hmm, maybe 2000.

[ATARI TROLL]

I'll settle for 2000.

That is a very nicely done Repo Cpuwiz. If I did not know what a real Quadrun looked like, I could see how someone could try to fool someone into thinking that this is the rare cartridge and try to extort money.

 

By the way, what does it cost to create a repo cartridge?
