Another 2600 32k?

Recommended Posts

Hi folks

 

I just checked the dancing baby. I noted it uses Tigervision 32k bankswith

not Atari 32k.

 

I'm wondering which 32k game Tigervision was released.

I totally forgot about that demo! I was meaning to release a colour version - the Interleaved Chronocolour Dancing Baby. I've already done a version with a half-dozen frames or so, in colour. That B&W demo is way primitive stuff, by comparison!

 

Cheers

Hi Andrew Davie

 

 

The dancing baby is great.

 

Since you're a programmer, could you please explain about 32k Tigervision and 32k Superchip.

 

I hope you will release the color version of the dancing baby.

The circuit that Tigervision used was implemented with a 74LS173 logic chip that monitors the address lines of the cartridge and toggles address bits on the ROM to switch banks. The banks are selected in 2K slices by writing a 2bit number (0-3) to any address between $40-$7F. I presume Chad (CuttleCart) did not limit this to 2 bits and hence people are able to implement larger sizes than just 8K.

Yup, same here.

 

Atari retro programmers unite, back to text only browsers! :D

Oh, come now, surely you've all made JPEG/PNG to ASCII rendering scripts by now. He he.
