I've not played VR on the 32X but not even WTR came close to it (despite being a vast improvement over CF)? On another note, and shooting off on more of a tangent, Super Burnout is arcade-quality, I'm surprised it isn't compared to say Suzuka 8 Hours more often. SB could've used the biker sprite-work that S8H had but otherwise had you dropped SB into an arcade in '95, it would've done well.

I won that Atari Pong Jr. unit that was done with the help of ARcade 1up a few years back - they were asking $129 for that piece of crap (all it does is play Pong) so in comparison, the 2600+ is a much better deal Too bad they don't have a mini-7800 case option for this though. Guess it'd be time to talk to someone I know with a nice 3D printer

The Atari 2600+ is live for preorders!
Shaggy the Atarian replied to jgkspsx's topic in Atari General
Too bad they don't include a few 7800 games with the 10-in-1 cart (make it a 20-in-1, why not) or have some other 7800 multicart but otherwise I do find this tempting. It'll make capturing games easier than I currently do using an HDMI convertor. -
Announcing Towers II Enhanced Stargazer Edition
Shaggy the Atarian replied to Songbird's topic in Atari Jaguar
I'm kicking myself for not placing my pre-order for this one the day it was announced. But still can't wait for the regular edition to come along (As a note to what you mentioned above Carl, I had finished the original game BITD but level 4 almost made me quit the game too) -
Enter the Gungeon: House of the Gundead

I recently got my hands on this. Been doing all right so far, although one of the guns just crapped out on me 😕 Here's a full playthrough: -
ExA-Arcadia - The New Neo Geo MVS

Unboxing Donut Dodo Do! - I still need to do a direct capture for this one. It's a lot of fun in two player mode: -

Thanks, wasn't aware of that version - although it's changed a lot from that old port to the point that you can still call it exclusive (as this new one isn't coming to consoles - same thing goes with Axel City 2) -
Time for another mascot discussion thread, but I'll back it up with an almost 40 minute long video I put together Includes some rare pics of the bizarre "Oswald" mascot that Atari was cooking up in the 90s. Of course I know some think of non-Atari characters like Pac-Man or Pitfall Harry as Atari's mascot but those can't ever realistically - or legally - count

E.X.O. Digital Edition Available to Order.
Shaggy the Atarian replied to Muddyfunster's topic in Atari 7800
I had a childhood friend who had an NES and BM so it should have stuck out more to me. If EXO had portions where you left the craft, then it would definitely jump out as a BM-type game. There was a Blaster Master 2 on the Genesis but that's one I've never played. It has some nice music from what I've heard online though. -

Blaster Master did cross my mind right before I recorded but for some reason I still blurted out Metroid BM is definitely a closer fit -

Grabbed a digital copy, here are some briefish thoughts -
"Dragonfly" my version of the Atari 7800 SD cartridge
Shaggy the Atarian replied to rj1307's topic in Atari 7800
I had no idea that it had been deactivated in the first place ...although it's only been recently that I've been getting into using my DF again. Thanks! -

Derp on my part, that worked! Thanks! -
"Dragonfly" my version of the Atari 7800 SD cartridge
Shaggy the Atarian replied to rj1307's topic in Atari 7800
I was wanting to grab the digital version of EXO and decided to make sure it would work on my DF cart, but the latest release candidate - as well as two older versions of the game - just display garbled colored lines. I've updated the DF to 1.09 and get the same result. I also discovered that most of the title screen for Tower Toppler does the same thing, but if I run it with the original cart, it looks just fine. I would guess that means it's something with my DF cart but not sure. Thoughts?
