Sorry, a bit of a spoiled question: Will this run on the Atari VCS Flaschback Portable? Or is there a reason I should not even try loading it on the SD-card?
Thanx for any answer. -

Prosystem is a very old emulator and a lot of recent homebrew games do not run correctly and some don't run at all.
If you are running on an android system, maybe check out Argon https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.markspace.retro
I don't know much about the android world or whether your Nvidia device can run it, but might be worth checking out.
If you are running on PC, check out A7800 which is probably the most accurate emulator for PC.
Hope you get "that H.E.R.O clone" working
Thanx on the tip about ARGON. Seems it also works on Android TV, which is something else than Android alone.
EDIT: Alas! I tried it! And I was surprised how ATARI-centered it is! Unfortunately there is no way of creating SCANLINES, nor can I find a way to point to folders with ROMs. At least that is the case in the Android TV-version. Also, I cannot play without scanlines. It´s just ... blashpemy.

@Bob Humid Hi Bob! Thanks for your kind words. Yes Speccy games defiantly have a colorful vibe no other machine really did back then and this translated well to my 7800 version.
As @Muddyfunster suggested Prosystem is unfortunately no longer capable of playing most modern homebrew. Hopefully someone will make a better 7800 emulator available for RetroArch eventually as like you many people use that for the combined arcade experience.
Another ways to play is using JS7800 online in the browser - there is a link in the first post to launch that. Also Argon is now hosting Robots Rumble within its game store which is fantastic.
Ok, thanx mates!
Well, The Nvidia ShieldTV is really a very nice gameing-device (Also possible to stream GeForceNOW-titles in 4K if necessary) and also probably the best TV-Box you can get at these days (My first two ones did not really work to their promised ad-talk) - So unfortunately RetroArchPlus it will be. Maybe I ll suggest something like porting a new 7800 Emulator for RetroArch in their forums. The Coleco-Emulator in RA is also complete rubbish. Couldn´t start ANY ROM with it, while the ShieldTV Pro can handle even a DreamCast EMU. And the ColecoVision was another really cool gaming device back then - in the carpet-warm and neonish 80ies...
P.S.
Oh! I found this:-

Mate!
This looks fantastic and thanx! Also nice to see some Spectrum-Games in the ATARI-Homebrew-universe. I like the colour schemes of the Spectrum, but never had one. ATARI and Spectrum 8-Bits truly have a "stylish" aspect to them and that is due to their colour palettes. A field where the C64 was terrible in.
However, I cannot run your final ROMs. I have an original 7800 in my studio (With no Harmony-card, just many original Cartridges), but love to play 7800-Games Home on my Nvidia Shield TVPro (Android-TV 11) running them on RetroArchPlus (Which uses the ProSystem as Emulator), which is tremendously nice for playing NES, SNES, MegaDrive, PS1 and other things with per-shader simulated Scanlines and PC-Controllers. It runs ALL original 7800-ROMs in the a78-format and many finished homebrews as Ninjish Guy, Knightguy, Slideboyinmazeland, Galaxian and Dragon´s Decent (Half of the homebrews don´t work with RetroArch, I still don´t know why). Yesterday I tried to import and play the final versions of RobotsRumble and A.R.T.I. (That H.E.R.O.-clone) but just a black screen was returned by RetroArch´s 7800 Emulator.
Do I miss something?-

Wow. This looks incredibly awesome! ?
I am not exactly aware of all the 7800er hardware-extensions that we have as of now. But will we ever be able to load this up into my 7800-Hardware for example as a RAM-extended Cartridge?
Oh, and also I would also like to add: "TAKE MY MONEY!!! <3"-

Very interesting approach! /.-) Just one dumb question: Will there be ever a ATARI Flashback Portable version?

We definitely won't be doing 5200 (too many buttons, analog, etc.), but we do want to look into 7800. What 7800 games do you guys want to see supported the most? Say, a top 3 - 5.
AFP 7800er?? Yessir! /.-)
PLEASE add a small 9-pin-port on the back, that can be used to connect an ext. Joystick for Player 2 using a small adapter!

ENCHANTER SPELLBREAKER - INFOCOM - rare - sealed - ATARI ST 3,5" also

Esteemed Atarians! /.-)

I am selling this precious pearl in very good condition!
Enchanter Spellbreaker - INFOCOM - RARE - SEALED - Atari ST 3,5" | eBay
NOTE: There are more pics at the Ebay-link!
The reason I am selling is not that I don´t want to keep and play it. I seriously wanted, BUT: I need a decent graphics-card for my 3D-game-development-project much more urgently and those beasts are expensive. But I placed the price of Spellbreaker clearly below another offer of a sealed package of this particular game on Ebay that I found a tad pricey. Mine is also in much better condition and unused!
I am in Cologne, Germany but willing to send to USA via DHL Package (insured up to 600,- EUR). Other destinations need to be discussed with me
ACHTUNG! 🙂 We can also swap for a decent graphic-card in good condition!
Have a great week!
Robert
