mimo Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 (edited) You need to send some money to Mitch, check out all the details here all the numbered ones are gone. The game will only play on an NTSC console Edited November 9, 2007 by mimo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 (edited) You need to send some money to Mitch, check out all the details here all the numbered ones are gone.The game will only play on an NTSC console Yep, give money to Mitch and you will mystically get a MIA cart in mail. Also you need to know emulation on this game blows chunks compaired to playing it on a real atari as the emulation is very poor for this title and it only works right on a real console so if your liking it via emulation your gonna love it on the real deal. Besides emulation is only good for development purposes IMO. Edited November 9, 2007 by Shawn Sr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariRocks Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 This is definitely fun on a real Atari. It's just too bad they never finished the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+remowilliams Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 The cuttle cart is just a glorified version of emulation IMO. Running real code on original hardware - sram vs eprom code storage makes a difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cuttle cart is just a glorified version of emulation IMO. How? Where's the emulation? All that's being changed is the storage medium, its still playing on the 7800. Emulation would involved *not* playing it on an actual 7800. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the same goes for any 7800 title say Donkey Kong was released by atari cart format. I'm pretty sure you get what I mean. It's just my own thing.

Well if it's not on a production rom than it's not like the original. If it's on an eprom "it's just a glorified verion of emulation", to quote a guy in Canada.

Allan Pretty much with very few exceptions here and there like proto's with only 1 in existance if you have to get a repro then you have to get a repro in those cases. I would still have it on a unique cart though, which goes back to my habbits of collecting\playing once agian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammR25 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 The CC2 is most definitely a form of emulation. It uses different parts than original to emulate those different parts. Will it cause the 7800 to play differently than the parts it replaces? No. That's why I'd personally rather use a CC2. It replaces lots and lots of parts.

As the same goes for any 7800 title say Donkey Kong was released by atari cart format. I'm pretty sure you get what I mean. It's just my own thing. I'm the same way. I have zero interest in the CC2 and would probably just have it collecting dust if I owned one. I'm at the point where I don't even consider a non-boxed version of a 7800 game a "real game" if I can help it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landsmarra Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I actually just popped this title onto my CC2...I'm surprised I remember what to do as I haven't updated any titles on it in 2 years! Anyhow, it plays fairly well...sorry this didn't see a release. Slightly reminiscent of Commando...maybe it was the music or text.

Danno Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Yep,you DEFINATELY HAVE to get the game cart. Or the ROM on a Cuttle Cart 2. The cuttle cart is just a glorified version of emulation IMO. Simulation and emulation are two very different things. The CC2 is a 2600/7800 cartridge simulator. Emulation implies that the hardware necessary to process and run the ROM files is being Emulated on the console end. With the CC2 - It's not. You're running on real hardware. Original 7800 hardware. It's simply a different cartridge format. No different than running a multicart on the 2600 or a "Brain" type cart library device. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Dogs Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 (edited) Shawn, are you putting down the carts you made for me? Where do single cart reproductions fit in? I do not put them at the same level as the original releases, but they do have their own dedicated carts. Depending on your answer, you can send me a $5.00 refund.
