pacman000 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Do you have pics of the cart? I've never seen one unless it's connected to the console. How does it fit in there? Neat find btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacman000 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Thanks. A google search brings this thread, with pics of the tops & bottoms of the carts: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/212859-telstar-arcade-very-first-cartridge-console/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacman000 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) Out of curiosity, has anyone tried making a homebrew for one of these or the PC-50x systems? Could someone put a new microcontroler in a cart to make their own games? Edited April 19, 2018 by pacman000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodarun Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 I am going to create a video of gameplay and a quick review of the system let me know if you folks want to see that 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBerel Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I had one of those, and I'm not sure the effort to make a "game" for it would be time well spent. I guess one could try to make break out or a rudimentary space invader type thing, but there's not much to work with. I got a cool $100 for the first person to port Doom to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
