Compumater Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I'll take a XM version or regular version, what ever you have left! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocEss Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 So I suppose that means I'll miss out unless I get an XM? Nope! You just won't have any sound effects or music . That's unfortunate. I can't justify buying something as intangible as the XM. I would have loved to contribute to Bob and this game, however. Perhaps another time. I do hope his rendition of Frenzy isn't XM-only as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there are any of you on this list getting the XM, please let me know. Thanks, Bob I will take one xm version..thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiffyone Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 If you're open to taking a donor cart, put me down for a standalone version. Otherwise...I'll have to think about it. Honestly, there's only two games on XM that interest me so far (this, and GroovyBee's Halloween). So if you're open to taking a donor cart, I'll make the "sacrifice" (as I have another copy of Ballblazer...might even have more than two, actually....)

PacManPlus Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 All added. Thank you. However, at this point I am not going to make *any* stand alone carts. I don't want any problems between someone who got one and other people who waited for the XM. This was intended as an XM game, so that's what it should be. I apologize to anyone who wanted the Stand-Alone version. I've been reading all of the back-and-forth in the XM thread, and I don't want to add to that by making two different kinds of carts. I hope you understand. I need to send a PM to Almost Rice, the.golden.ax, Propane13, and Atari_Falcon to see if they still want theirs as an XM cart. Thanks, Bob EDIT: I cannot send PMs for some reason. I get the following error in the Orange Box: The following errors were found Array This personal message has not been sent Don't know what that means, so I hope Almost Rice, Propane13 and Atari_Falcon have read this post (the.goldex.ax already contacted me).

[...] I've been reading all of the back-and-forth in the XM thread, and I don't want to add to that by making two different kinds of carts. I hope you understand. Sure do. Is there much of a trick to it if I want to make my own standalone cart for my own use, aside from finding a cart with a POKEY chip? I think I saw mention of an 'LS04 chip somewhere earlier. (Were I to do this, I wouldn't think it inappropriate to pay a royalty of some sort for the code, especially if you aren't releasing the final version.)

I'll pay for any cart you do immediately, as I have in the past. Let me know and thanks. Thursday83 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lendorien Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I somehow missed this development and that you were taking orders. >_<. I'd be interested in one of the XM versions most definitely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAC-MAN PRIME Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Hey Bob! Somehow I missed out on this news until now, so I hope I am not too late to reserve an XM copy. Can I be added to the list please? BTW, will the XM version use the same label? If you'd like, I could incorporate the artwork into one of my XM label samples to differentiate the two versions. Either which way, thanks for all your efforts on this great game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[d2f]Iggy*SJB Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Do you have a projected time frame for release? I'd like a copy, but I won't be able to afford it for a month or two. I wouldn't mind an XM copy, because even if I don't have one when I get the cart, I can always get one later(which is what I'm pretty much planning on, assuming they don't sell out.)

Atari Dogs Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I have been way out of the scene. Great to see this released. I will need to check blogs on XM reviews. I will have to get one. Anyway, put me down for Super Circus AtariAge if they are still available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacManPlus Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 What's the final word? Playing this on a standard 7800 (no XM) gets you TIA sounds, or silence? Silence. I used the Pokey only mostly because of the music/sfx (4 channels). @BigO: I'm sorry. I'm just trying to avoid a problem. Also, like I stated earlier, because of O'Sheas' lack of vision/caring, Ballblazer carts aren't as common as they once were. [rant]BTW, I called them to see if they had any 7800 games left at all. The guy there (most of you know who he is) said he was pretty sure he did, and he would get back to me. That was two months ago. I even sent an e-mail reminder. Must be nice to have so many sales that you don't need to call potential customers back :-/ [/rant] I cannot edit the original post with the list, so I've made a new one: 1.
