Did the play field work correctly for you? Like, in the first level, the barrier is a circle. On my 2022 cart, it was showing up as a semicircle on the left and a rectangular block on the right that you couldn't damage at all. It essentially only let you play on the left side of the screen.
I could only attack from the left as you described. I didn't take the time to find the manual, so thought this was normal.

Does anyone know if Stella's Stocking works on the 2600+ I’m thinking of buying it cause I want to play Stay Frosty.
It doesn't load for me with the factory firmware.

I spent yesterday showing one of my oldest friends the 2600+ and playing games all day. We had a blast remembering our favorite games and trying the new stuff he had never heard of. We did run into two games that had some issues:
Fall Down - We could not get the two player mode to work because the right joystick wasn't recognized as active. We played Asteroids just prior, so it was operating correctly before and after this game. Maybe we missed something simple?
Yars' Return - After playing for about 20 minutes the screen suddenly went blank and the loading/failing messages started. I pulled the cartridge out to re-seat it and noticed the cartridge was hot to the touch. This seemed odd as I don't recall that happening on any other cart. I touched the slot area and it didn't seem hot, so something in the cartridge was generating it. Rather than risking melting something in the cart, we moved on.

Here is my list of what isn't working with the factory installed firmware on the 2600+. The first few items are categories than the carts are listed alphabetically. I'll try to refine this some more so that it can be more useful in identifying issues. The list is 86 lines. I mostly left off games that needed the special controllers as long as they loaded and would start, I'm hoping it is a priority to add support for the first 3 categories.

Thanks for all this testing! Would be awesome if you could compile a list of just "Homebrew that works with 2600+" when you are all done with your testing.
That's a good idea. I was going to start with a list of what doesn't work to help encourage Atari to work on more compatibility.

Two quick updates:
I indicated that the "End" Homebrew worked on the 2600+, but it actually does not. I didn't mark it properly in my notes.
After more cleaning and about 20 tries, I finally got the Revenge of the Beefsteak Tomatoes working. It needed to be pushed all the way to the right for it to be read correctly.
-
Round 3 of testing. No special controllers tested like driving, keypad, trackball, or quadtari's since they reportedly don't work yet.

Games that required cleaning to work on the 2600+:
Riddle of the Sphinx
Tutankham
Word Zapper
Games that worked but were finicky on how to insert the cart on both units. The only method that worked was to gently press in on the right side and then push the cart down from right to left.

Received my pre-order from Atari.com yesterday. I love it so far and hope the firmware updates come soon. I pulled out a bunch of carts today and started testing. I had a Sears Telegames 6 switcher also set up to test any carts that didn't work on the 2600+. I don't have a 7800 out at the moment and since they are homebrews I didn't expect them to work with the factory firmware. I'm using a OLED television with any filtering turned off to reduce possible lag.
7800 games I tried that didn't work:
KC Munchkin
Astro Blaster
Bob Decrescenzo Collection
There were 2 games that wouldn't work on the 2600+ or the Original unit. I vaguely remember this might be an issue with my Telegames model, so need to find a different unit to test these on.
The Byte before Christmas
Stay Frosty 2
Games that did not work on the 2600+ but did on original hardware, I think most of these are already known.
Robotwar
Load Runner
Evil Magician II
Millipede Track Ball (the garbled screen shot is below) (TB not tested as known to not work currently)
The Pursuit of the Pink Panther
Games that required cleaning to work on both units:
King Kong
Stone Age
Games that worked on original hardware but needed cleaning to work on the 2600+
Laser Volley
Lost Luggage
H.E.R.O. (didn't see any issues that others have reported)
Scuba Diver
Atlantis - Cromax
Imagic (Brazilian multi cart) Pac-Man / River Raid / Pitfall / Space Invaders
Games that worked:
10 in 1 cartridge (I also tested these new carts on the Telegames with the new controllers, and they all worked)
4 in 1 paddle games
Berzerk Enhanced (I still can't figure out what the robot says when I die?)
Mr. Run and Jump
A roach in Space
Hunger Shark
Joust
Journey Escape (Had the distorted sound that others have reported)

I normally avoid collectors editions, but one of the early suggestions of the SwordQuest games made me think about what would it take to get me to buy:
1. My estimate of retail price at $100 -$150, depending on what is included
2. All 4 games on a dip switch cart like the paddle games one
3. Include all 4 manuals and all 4 comic books (If Airworld doesn't have these yet, they should be created)
4. Work with Boss Fight Studios using their Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S. 1/18 system to make Torr and Tarra action figures. The Earthworld outfits are probably the best for this package. There are figures like the Tarzan ones or Fantasy or Greek that could be used for the base.
5. Also have Boss Fight create the 5 prizes in 1/18 scale for the figures to play with. This way all of us get to pretend that we won.

The 2600+ Game Compatability Thread
in Atari 2600+
Posted
I did some more testing with the Atari released Yars' Return today and there is definitely something wrong. I tried it in my original system and it played correctly. I let it run for two hours and there was no heat on the cartridge. I then put it in the 2600+ and had the same issues as before with only half the field working and overheating in under 20 minutes.
I also had an old cart from a 2005 version that is a flickering nightmare, but it worked correctly in the original unit and 2600+. I left it in the plus for about an hour and there was no heating issue. It seems like some kind of load issue that is causing constant hits on the most recent cartridge and resulting in the game chip(s) heating up.
