Ransom Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I see this thread is in the Atari 2600 forum, but I've seen posts listing games played on all kinds of systems. Is it OK to do that? I think so. No one has complained. This seems most appropriate as the vast majority of playing time goes with the 2600. Good point! So here's mine for the weekend (all 2600): Kangaroo: 30 minutes (still one of my faves) Mario Bros.: 10 minutes (I *want* to like this...) Millipede: 10 minutes (...and this) Moon Patrol: 20 minutes (I forgot how fun this was!) Pole Position: 15 minutes (It's amazing how well this update of Night Driver holds up) Vanguard: 30 minutes (again, one of my faves) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cvga Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Another strong week of gaming for Week #6. Park Patrol holds on to the #1 position and Doris remains in the Top 10.

Ransom Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I received a s-video cable for my SNES last night, so had to try it out. Nice! Battle Wheels (SNES): 20 minutes Super Mario World (SNES): 10 minutes But I couldn't pass up the VCS, so continued with my alphabetical trip through all my VCS games, now with the red label ones: Dark Chambers (2600): 5 minutes (still boring) Gravitar (2600): 20 minutes (more fun than I'd remembered!)

Kurt_Woloch Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 OK... here (again a bit late... unfortunately) are my times for the past week.

Park Patrol (C-64) 185 minutes (in 3 sessions) Fatal Run (2600) 39 minutes Toyshop Trouble (2600) 34 minutes Jack and the beanstalk (2600) 11 minutes Conquest of Mars Rev. 2 (2600) 11 minutes Spider Fighter (2600) 6 minutes Solar Nexus (2600) 5 minutes Tint (2600) 3 minutes Ballblazer Demo (2600) 2 minutes As always, the C-64 was emulated in VICE and the 2600 in Stella.
