Yep, the official conversion under the Atarisoft label to the popular home micros, often weren't that great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+MrFish Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Something about Atarisoft people might not know (but maybe thought about before). When I used to live in Sunnyvale, I talked with a former Atarisoft employee for a while (at a yard sale he was having); and he got an interesting smirk on his face when we discussed the quality of software Atari did for those other systems. Let's just say, they weren't done to flatter those systems' abilities (to put it mildly). Haha... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sargie Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Yeah - I've heard that... most of them were not great. Although, Ms. PacMan and Moon Patrol on the C64 were good - the guys who wrote those did not read the memo I prefer C64 Ms. PacMan to the original A8 version.
