farquh Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I just bought a Burger Time 2600 cart and tried to play it on my 7800. It was frozen, however when I played with the difficulty switches, suddenly the enemies moved and the background music played, but when I played with the difficulty switches further, things 'slowed down.' Anyone know if Burger Time is a fickle cart for the 2600? Or perhaps is it just my copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 2600 Burgertime is dead slow. Awful conversion IMO. Here's a link to the manual, which has the switch positions: http://www.atariage.com/manual_html_page.html?SoftwareLabelID=60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird3rd Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 According to the manual for BurgerTime, they used the difficulty switches to implement a "pause" feature and to determine the number of players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DracIsBack Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Not when Kenfused's kickass Beef Drop is available! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianC Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I got it working on the 7800, but It gets very little play time due to it paleing in comparison to Beef Drop 7800 and other versions of Burgertime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[d2f]Iggy*SJB Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Nothing wrong with having it in your collection, but as has been mentioned; Beef Drop just straight kicks it's ass. Definitely one of the best "homebrew-arcade conversions" ever made! If you have a 7800, and don't have this game, you are missing out!!

Totally vouch for that - the 7800 homebrews rock and beef drop is simply top of my list. Did you know the author created a version using Action! on the A8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sauron Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Yup, yet another one here to say that you're far better off getting Beef Drop, which is most definitely an outstanding game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good - where can I track down a Beef Drop? Ebay I imagine? Anyway, I would like to find a 2600 and try out the BurgerTime cart that I do have. The 'pause' function works just fine, but I just can't make the character move up or down. Pepper button works fine...I imagined that BurgerTime might have had difficulties on the 7800 the way Kool-Aid man had trouble on the 2600 Jr. and such, but it doesn't look like anyone else is having issue but me!
