  1. Curt- Production models come with any instructions at all? Edit: I found a semi-answer in the Dedicated Systems forum.
  2. Please post some pictures of the instruction manuals that come with. Or do they link you to a PDF file online to print your own instructions for the games???
  3. Here are some pictures of my copy. Click on this picture for a page full of pictures. Click those pictures to enlarge them.
  4. I also have one numbered wooded boxed special limited edition and I'm quite willing to sell it for a reasonable amount. Send me a PM if you are interested.
  5. Thanks everyone. Am I making this up or doesn't the CC manual show you how to change the battery without losing high scores? Edit: Yes, I think you have to power up the CC in a running machine with the case off and carefully swap the battery while it's running.
  6. Do you think it's a good idea to take the battery out of the CC2 when putting it away to store it for a year or 2?
  7. I think homebrewers have already found ways to push the system even further, so the original programmers definitely would have.
  8. In the mean time, start buying Pitfall II's as fast as you can!
  9. Nope. But I bet you're pissing off a lot of people at the MPAA. 861736[/snapback] I would be surprised to find out that the MPAA has any say over the videos that I author of my children and family, or the wedding videos that I edit for friends and co-workers.
  10. I had a Video Game Brain, which was essentially the same thing back in the day. It was just another cool gadget but it was awesome.
  11. Yeah exactly. At home I have 8 DVD disc images on my desktop ranging from 1 to 4.5 GB each. The machine has 960 MB of RAM so I suppose I'm using 30GB of virtual memory then?
  12. I just don't see how the size of the files on the desktop makes any difference to the file allocation tables? Having lots of icons to redraw might slow down an old slow PC, perhaps even quite a bit when there are hundreds of them stacked on there. But that's just an issue of how many icons are being redrawn, has nothing to do with the file sizes.
  13. Also, the link you gave... http://www.otakunozoku.com/Articles/ToyBox...fallIIPlus.html is a page that hasn't changed for a long time, at least 5 years. Maybe we should contact this guy and reinterest him in his project? EDIT: I sent an email to him at the WHOIS contact email address for his domain.
  14. If this works I'll be a very happy boy....and I'd gladly pay someone to hack a Pitfall II for me. $
  15. I would also love to have this done! There have been other threads about the chips on the Pitfall II game and I remember someone saying that the chips are not separate components...that the sound chip has game data on it, or vice-versa, something along those lines.
  16. In OS X cmd-shift-3 grabs the entire contents of all attached monitors and cmd-shift-4 lets you drag a selection around part of the screen.
  17. I was browsing online and found this page for someone's Mac Aquarium. Then, half way down the page, I saw that the creation uses Atari 2600 cartridges!
  18. No, not JUST. The CD player plays the necessary audio format files from CD that the Cuttle Cart 1 uses to play games. If you really WANT to, you can play music on this CD player, but the signal is being sent to the CC's audio line-in. To those complaining about the price you are getting: Complete Cuttle Cart 1 - $100++ 4 switch 2600 $15+ CD Player $15+ Cuttle Cart Underground CD set $45 originally + shipping. Modifications $24. Pretty low end price.
  19. Absolutely. The Cuttle Cart is completely unharmed and just lives inside the vast expases of space inside a 4 switch 2600.
  20. Short answer, no. A different player could be used, but it has to be opened up, hole drilled for a bolt, hole drilled for power and audio wires and then solder connections for the audio and power. Screw down the player and then reassemble the top.
  21. Things that don't work on CC like Pitfall 2 and hacks and games released after perhaps 2002 or 2003.
