Albert Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 New 2019 Homebrew Releases Now Available! The new releases from October's Portland Retro Gaming Expo are now available to purchase online! In total we have nine new 2600 games, one new 5200 game, and one new 7800 title! You can click on the images below to jump directly to each game's entry in the store. Here's a list of the new games: Aardvark (2600) Amoeba Jump (2600) A Roach in Space (2600) Dragon's Descent (2600) Evil Magician Returns II (2600) Galagon (2600) Gyvolver (2600) Tyre Trax (2600) Wizard of Wor Arcade (2600) Scramble (5200) Baby Pac-Man (7800) We also have the AtariVox+ back in stock, which is used by four of the above new games for saving high scores, as well as by Wizard of Wor Arcade to replicate speech from the original arcade game! And, finally, we've added boxes as an option for about 50 games, including last year's new 2600, 5200, and 7800 boxed releases (Dungeon II: Solstice, Mappy, Space Game, Froggie, and RealSports Curling). 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Nathan Strum Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Great to see these in the store! Two inevitable questions that I might as well get out of the way : Is the AtariVox+ now the updated version that fixes the reset problem? Also, any ETA on the QuadTari? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Working on a program for those who previously purchased an AtariVox+ to have them updated. Will post details about that in January or February. 1 minute ago, Nathan Strum said: Also, any ETA on the QuadTari? Not at this time, sorry. ..Al 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyluli Wolf Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Is it possible to order the boxes alone, without the game or manual? I have several games I purchased thru AA that didn't come with boxes but would love to add a box to my existing copies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a multitap adapter that lets you plug more than one joystick into the left port. It will let two players play Wizard of Wor Arcade simultaneously with an AtariVox plugged into the right port. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+laz455 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Question are these titles available to just download or if you buy the cart do you also have access to the rom file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takes 2-3 weeks anymore this time of year. Only 2 more working days before Christmas, so maybe they'll show by then! Guess we could check our PayPal status and see if maybe tracking info has been uploaded... just checked, and no tracking info yet. Don't know if that means they haven't shipped yet, are on their way or what. ?♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhodgeshvs Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 The shop always sends an email when items have shipped. But Al never said he would try to have this batch shipped before Xmas, like he does some years, so my guess is it’s all happening after the holidays... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 Here's an update for everyone waiting on their games. I had a TON of orders come in starting on December 8th (when I put the new games in the store), and I'm working through them in the order they were received. I will be shipping a large batch of orders (over 100) tomorrow morning, and then will work on another batch of 100, and keep doing so until all the orders are shipped. My goal is to have everything shipped by January 6th. Pretty much all my waking time at the moment is being spent building games so I can get them out to everyone. As stated above, the store will send out an email once I've added tracking information to an order and have marked it as shipped. If you're not receiving emails from the store (for instance, you didn't see an order confirmation email when placing your order), please check your spam folder to see if your email provider (Google, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.) has flagged the message as spam. If so, moving the message out of that folder should prevent that from happening again down the road. ..Al 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLeaf Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Well your hard work is appreciated and no one should expect you to burn out doing this. Patience should be a prerequisite when purchasing anything regarding a hobby related item.

Thomas Jentzsch Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 (edited) BTW: When you got your games and have played them enough, please do not forgot to post a review in the store. Thanks!
