BEEF DROP

[andreaspv]

hi everyone, I need information. I want to buy BEEF DROP for atari 7800. I use the PAL system in Italy. I read in the notes that it works on pal and ntsc. But do you select power-up mode or how does it work? you can help me? thanks

It's magic*  

 

*Cart auto detects and sets the palettes and speeds etc as to whether it's PAL or NTSC.

the question seems silly .. but I just made the MOD to an atari 5200 to have the composite AV video output and I have to convert the TV signal from NTSC to PAL .... I see that many games for sale, you can buy "rightly" in PAL or NTSC .. this, strangely, is "dual video system"?

The BeefDrop cart is "smart".

 

The cart software will automatically detect whether it is inserted in PAL or NTSC console, and adjust the output accordingly.

 

So, the consoles are NOT dual video system, but the BeefDrop cart works for either PAL or NTSC.

 

No special button presses or manual mode selection needed.
