CPUWIZ Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I am guessing John won it and we'll get to see it at CGE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I am guessing John won it and we'll get to see it at CGE. I doubt it. I don't think people will be lining up to pay $45 for a 5200 kids game that was also released on the 8-bit. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg2600 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 As I said before, rather see someone convert the 8-bit (completed game) then a barely functional prototype with no sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Lost forever? Maybe. We'll see what happens at CGE. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Bump? Does anyone know who won this? Obviously we never saw it at CGE so that theory is now toast. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest If you don't know than I don't think this is going to show up. Luckily we have the 8-bit version to see what it was like. Luckily this isn't something like Elevator Action or Zoo Keeper.

Greg2600 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 There's also the superior NES version! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan True, but I'd like the rom to be preserved anyway. I'm also curious if this started off as a 5200 title and then was ported to the 8-bit or vice versa. The unfinished state of this proto seems to say it started off on the 5200, but that's the opposite of what I would have thought.

Tempest Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 Necro bumping this. The prototype resurfaced on ebay and was bought and dumped. The rom will be released eventually, but for now I can show some better pictures of the game in action: http://www.atariprotos.com/5200/software/muppet/muppet.htm 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2600 Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 I saw that, great news. I still would liked to have seen the completed 8-bit version ported, as it had sound and all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacman000 Posted Friday at 01:58 AM Share Posted Friday at 01:58 AM (edited) Glad it's preserved! I remember Kermit appearing on select Sesame Street sketches. That was in the '90's; anyone know when the he stopped appearing there? Educational games don't sound like a bad thing to develop for the 5200; just one more market to sell the system to.
