+Larry Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Let us know how you like it after you have received it. (A real review would be nice.) It would be interesting for someone to compare it to the ColecoVision version of so many years ago. -Larry Lance at video 61 Just got the first batch ( 15 ) of Venture ready for shipping.

olavese@online.no Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I want one, but it isn't listed on his page, unless I look in the wrong place? I check under New Carts for Atari 400/800 and searched for Venture ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NML32 Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 It's not listed since there are only 15 (now less) ready. I emailed Lance from his web site and he got back to me very quickly with the details and paypal address. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 I dont see Venture listed anywhere - maybe Lance can tell us how to order one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King_Salamon Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Send an email to Lance.. It's what I did asking about Venture and got myself a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandit Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Venture on The colecovision was a great game, This port to the atari is very good, iam sure if you liked the coleco version you will be very happy with the atari version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Anyone get theirs yet? Lance indicated I ordered the last of the first batch and that it would ship later this week. Just curious on how it came out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Westphal Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Hello all! I just recieved Venture and I would like to say YEAHH!! Sorry I cant run it until I get my rom card for my 800 tomorrow, but here is a pic.. it is in a XE case with blue label...I will give a quick review soon.

fernando marrin Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Had to Re-label all my carts from Video 61, His printer must be a Commodore Mps 1250... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Westphal Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Yep. Agree. But he is still one of the best to deal with personaly. I can alway's print a new label.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetset Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Wow, where does one get info on this? And more importantly, can this be ported to the 5200? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Westphal Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 Here is a comparison between an XE cart and the Video 61 Venture. I love the grey case with the blue label ( XE ) style cart. I am very lucky and happy to recieve #1 of the run. I am sure more are to follow. I would love to see Blaster released on cart, but I bet Williams has the rights to that one...The high-res pic was 2.1MB. This will have to do for now.

Mclaneinc Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Will there ever be a 'digital' version of this and Tempest Extreme for sale? I only ask as that at some point my hardware will no doubt fail and that's why I never buy real versions, also I had to give away my last collection to the bin man, it was stored at my mothers as I had no space, sadly she died and I still had no place to put it all. Everything went in the bin......Sad day all around. So I'm not going to collect again (unless I win the lottery) as I'll be moving at some point and I'll have a hard enough time moving what I have with my illness. Digital versions take up no space...

olavese@online.no Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Why didn't you give it away? I would NEVER throw it in the bin, even if I didn't get any money for it, I'd rather give it to someone who can appreciate it I shudder and cry a bit reading this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
