 Matt Reichert of the informative website AtariProtos.com has recently spoken with Atari alumni Howard Scott Warshaw, who shed new light on the unreleased Mind Maze game for the Atari 2600.

 It looks like the hassles of Jaguar CD encryption may finally be over! Curt Vendel of the Atari History Museum has uncovered what appears to be the software Atari used to encrypt Jaguar CD software. This discovery should allow creation of new Jaguar CD-based software that will no longer require the use of a hardware bypass mechanism to get around the Jaguar's built-in authentication routines. You can download the software and follow the full discussion in our Atari Jaguar Forum.

 A new Atari 7800 emulator titled EMU7800 is now under development by Atari enthusiast Mike Murphy. This work-in-progress requires Microsoft's .NET framework and presently doesn't run 7800 games although most 2600 games play with sound. Most notable in this release is that Andrew Towers' TIA HW Notes paper was used to emulate HMOVEs more closely, allowing infamous Cosmic Ark stars to appear without special hacks. You can download EMU7800 here, and discuss it with other AtariAge visitors in our Atari 7800 Forum.
