Cousin Vinnie Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Im doing a little sumthin sumthin ova here and I wanna make sure I list every Atari 7800 beatable adventure/action game that has an end screen... not a game with an end screen and the game flips or a sports or racing title. So here is what I came up with... Ace of Aces Alien Brigade Bentley Bear's Crystal Quest Choplifter! Double Dragon Fatal Run F-18 Hornet GoSub Ikari Warriors Karateka Meltdown? Midnight Mutants Missing in Action Ninja Golf Possible Mission Planet Smashers Scrapyard Dog Super Skateboardin' Tomcat Tower Toppler Water Ski? Thanks alot fellas!

In the Windows version yes....in the 7800 version there is no save option and the game is too heavy. This is the reason,why i would only give 8.5 from 10. ?

Jinks Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 9 hours ago, Cousin Vinnie said: Can you beat that one? You can but with no saves etc. You need to play it non stop with unlimited continues takes hours and hours of dyin and tryin cause I am not a game master. If played with 2p even harder yet. The bosses act differently and if your compadre gets killed you have to start the level over. So that causes a real life fight with your 2p buddy about why they suck. The best is to find the warp zone and skip some levels like the bubble world which makes no sense to me at times and I usually give up there. The ending boss levels are beyond difficult you would do anything for a powerup to allow another hit or two or twenty to your fox.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted November 15, 2020 Author Share Posted November 15, 2020 You know what's weird, the game looks amazing but it doesnt look like something I would normally buy. I bought it when it cam out and never popped it in. I gotta give it a whirl, especially since it looks like the guy is done making any more. ?

I have Draker Quest 1 but never completed that one. I would like to see a playthrough of Draker Quest 2. Man up here in Canada our dollar sucks balls so I do not have the cash to buy everything like back in 2013 when Bobby Dee was pumping the gamez out!

Trebor Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Vin...Keep in mind with Rikki & Vikki, you only get the 'good' ending if you beat the game with 2 players. No matter how you perform with the one player game, you still get an ending, but a much less desirable one. My only issue with this title is the aforementioned ending. The game should not punish due to having only one player complete it. I can understand people desiring a password save option; however, with unlimited lives as a selectable choice early on in the game (Well, after the second continue/"try again"), the game can be played through well under 2 hours, even within 90 minutes. Besides, who needs passwords when there is... ...DUT'S DISCOUNT WARPS! Warp your way to any of the caverns! The way to reach: During the first area (Rock Caverns), complete boards R0-R9 without dying and without eliminating an enemy. Just collect the keys. If successful, Dut will appear and treat you access to above. The levels R through M are presented in the order they are experienced in the game... Rock Cavern Sand Cavern Flame Cavern Bubble Cavern Metal Cavern ...including the "E" which is the End Cavern. The floating/flying "I" above, is for access to the Irregular Caverns. Press jump while it flies above the player's head to enter it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebor Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 10 hours ago, Cousin Vinnie said: Well dude... I need these games. All publicly available/latest releases or/and demos can be had from the Homebrews and Hacks thread. There is also Trebors 7800 ROM PROPack last updated in June. It will likely see another update in another month or so. It contains ROMs for all original retail, prototype, hacks, and homebrews, with proper headers. ZeroPage Homebrew Completed/WIP 2020 thread is also a great resource. It links to current WIPs and completed titles from this year. Knight Guy has not been released to cart yet and there has been no cartridge mass distribution of Asterix Quest either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you couldn't be more right about Tower Toppler. Anyone who has the patience to complete all the levels deserves a hell of a lot more than that lame end screen!

+Propane13 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I never figured out how to beat Planet Smashers. You can be as cautious as you like, but once enough rocks get past you, you suddenly go to ZERO LIVES. Any tips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
