video61atarisales Posted November 18, 2018 Author Share Posted November 18, 2018 Are the 5200 conversions of these games identical to the computer versions? in my opinion, they look better color wise. much more vibrant, and of course the joysticks makes the game play different. lance www.atarisales.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGHMW Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Well, I just got Tile Smashers and Megaoids from V61 for the 5200 this past week and now I am ready to add this into my collection, I will be able to order it after my eBay auction on my Nike Kobe VI Rice shoes ends this Wednesday afternoon at around 1:00 pm, I hope the buyer doesn't change his mind on them THIS TIME AROUND like the last buyer did last Sunday, which forced me to relist them but yes I AM interested in adding this to my Video 61/Atari Sales 5200 collection! FINALLY a version of Omega Race I can play on my 5200, YES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGHMW Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Also, will we 5200 owners get our version of Laser Blast X like the 8-bit players already have??? I remember Laser Blast (and have a BIN file of it) for the 2600 so I would love to be able to play a 5200 version of it where it will have better graphics and no flickering (2600 owners and players already know the limitations of the 2600 and feel the 5200 can offer gamers more!!!)

peteym5 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) Are the 5200 conversions of these games identical to the computer versions? Most games that I made for the 8-bit computer has been ported to the 5200. The programming for input is of course different. Since these had been done later, there may be some updates that are not in the 8-bit version. Fix some minor quirks that had been observed since the time of the 8-bit release. Delta Space Arena has an additional background drum beat and some tweaks to the sound effects. Programming had to be adapted for new memory locations and deal with a different amount of RAM. With the 5200 controller, you can control how fast the ship rotates with how far the stick is moved left or right. However, for those that prefer the digital style (as with the 8-bit version) or want to use a db9 (digital) adapter, there is an option to select "ANALOG JOYSTICK" or "DIGITAL JOYSTICK". "DiIGITAL" sets the ship rotation to a constant rate and does not matter how far the 5200 joystick is pressed left or right. One game that we are putting together specifically for the 5200 is a version of Secretum Labyrinth that is adapted to work with the 5200 memory layout. It is a RPG Adventure style game.
