Cybergoth Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Hi there! *bumped* Well, I fear a Jumpman screen structure... But don't expect me really doing it myself before 2005... Greetings, Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio F Software Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Id like to see a Bubble Bobble too. Also, that would be funny to se a Sonic game on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 I want to see a battle of the planets/g-force game. a battlestar galactica game would be cool too. as far as existing games, i'd love to see 'the eidolon' though i don't think it would be possible :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamemaster_ca_2003 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 so many games A few suggestions Marble Madness Qix ZooKeeper 1942 (possible but very flickery) Do! Run Run (great game) Bubble Bobble (Very flickery as well) Fantasy Zone (again Flickery) Arkanoid Tron (Arcade game) Discs of Tron Castle Wolfinstien Mr. Driller DDR Super Pac-Man Pac n Pal (aka Pac Man and Chomp Chomp) Final Fantasy (hey It could Happen) Dig Dug II Rip Off Domino Man (might be a bit flickery) Many More.

keilbaca Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 there is NO WAY you can pull ddr off. it would be too slow/too few arrows. not good for me, considering I do 10 foot songs. Anyways, I would like arcade warlords. Sure they made castle crisis, but i aint got a 5200 (but i guess you could say the same about the Qix idea). I'm liking the zoo keeper and marble madness ideas.

Cybergoth Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Hi there! Domino Man (might be a bit flickery) There you go: http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=56647 Greetings, Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianoid Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Two games: Snood! This would be an awesome paddle game- high score save recommended. And then I agree on the previous post of Mr. Driller. Snood! Snood! Snood! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabeen557 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 snood would be fun, but not as much as castle wolfenstein would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nateo Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 I'm going to third the idea of Zoo Keeper being ported, I would kill to see that game ported to the 2600, I dont care how much flicker there would be (flicker dosent really bother me that much) That game is one of my all-time favorite arcade games! Also, I think it would be cool to see Space Dungeon ported over to the 2600. I always liked that one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kemsted Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 There are a bunch of classic-era games that might adapt well to the 2600 but were too obscure or made by the wrong company at the time. To name a few off the top of my head... Moon Cresta/Eagle Scramble (mentioned elsewhere) Astro Invader (the one I used to call "Slot Car Invaders" as a kid) Space Panic (CV version is quite good, maybe better than the arcade) Rally X (lots of scrolling but not too many sprites at a time) Bosconian (ditto, like sinistar but slower and sparser) Mappy (a bit more work but a favorite of mine) Rob bosconian! i definitely agree. ive always wanted that to be for the 2600.

Gamemaster_ca_2003 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Domino Man (might be a bit flickery)There you go: http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=56647 Thx good luck on the game we pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scogey Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 i keep going to the in development section to see if there is any more info on the kickman game. i loved kickman on the commodore as a kid and cant wait to pick up the 2600 version!

NintendoDieScreaming Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 I'll be the second to suggest Sonic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZylonBane Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Then you'll be the second to have absolutely no grasp of the 2600's technical capabilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raindog Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Maybe there was some Sonic keychain LCD game that could be simulated adequately on the 2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keilbaca Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 so now you're gonna have an atari game look like a game and watch game... meh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atarimind Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 I would LOOOVEEE to see PARCEC from Texas TI99. That is a pretty cool game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raindog Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 It was not a serious suggestion. Perhaps someone would like to see Shadow of the Beast on the 2600 next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekrul Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 Really? I bought Arkanoid used - I didn't know it was supposed to have a paddle. Now I have a quest..... The C64 version works great with Atari paddles. If anyone does decide to give 2600 Archon a shot (and I can't think of any technical reason why it couldn't do it), be sure to swing by the Archon: Evolution site. From their Developer Diary-- Hopefully, this won't just fizzle out like the other Archon remakes I've seen over the years... I'm really looking forward to Star Fire, speaking of ports. I still like the arcade game! (Bonus points if you can name the movie it was featured in, and the 'future' star who was playing it.) Michael J. Fox played Starfire in Midnight Madness. It was not a serious suggestion. Perhaps someone would like to see Shadow of the Beast on the 2600 next. I was leaning toward Mortal Kombat myself.

NintendoDieScreaming Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 Then you'll be the second to have absolutely no grasp of the 2600's technical capabilities. I have a fine grasp of the 2600's capabilities, thank-fucking-you, the question was which game would you like to see ported to the 2600, and I'd like to see Sonic. 'Like' being the key word. A very simplified version could happen, and no one has to program all these suggestions. A Sonic game would be amusing. Don't tell me how much of a grasp I have on the VCS.

I know that it was a joke but, now that I think about it, a 2600 "Game And Watch Gallery" would be pretty nifty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybergoth Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 Hi there! One Intellivision game I'd like to see 2600ified is Imagics "Beauty and the Beast" Greetings, Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben_Larson Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 DOOM. Actually I think a rudimentary first person shooter would be possible. The first step would probably be to do an overhead 2d game or demo that implemented playfield rotation and translation, then move on to 3d...
