5200 homebrew roms?

Recommended Posts

I found a bunch of 5200 conversions in an old topic, from 2011, but have never seen anything about 5200 homebrew roms.  My atarimax should be here tomorrow and would like to have a few homebrew if they are out there.  Also, is there an updated version of conversions since 2011?

Beef Drop is a pretty good conversion of Burger Time for the 5200.

Wrathchild's Atari 8-bit to 5200 conversions

 

Dropzone
Rainbow Walker
Speed Ace
Gebelli compilation
Rampage
Jet Boot Jack
Encounter!
Necromancer
Kid Grid
Chop Suey
Fort Apocalypse
Capture the Flag
Claim Jumper
Journey To The Planets

 

Necromancer? Isn't that a 64K RAM-required XE Game System cartridge ROM originally?

 

Crossbow with added Trak-Ball support would be killer on the 5200. Since the 5200 lacks the hardware to support light guns, of course. And I realize the XEGS version doesn't support Trak-Balls...

Ah, so your conversion is from that version?

No, it was from the A8 ROM version which is only 16K and the code/data fits in that and runtime space (screen /sprite memory, game variables etc) would take up the other RAM and so hence the orignal 32K requirement
