Cousin Vinnie Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Do you remember me? Do you remember Cousin Vinnie's Panoramic Atari 7800 Froo Froo? No? Oh well. I barely remember it too. Anyways, I had a house fire last year and lost most of my Atari 7800 shiz. I have pieced my collection back together but I needz some help. I am not really interested in Hacks, but I would like to obtain everything else that is considered a full game. I can get the original 57 or so games myself on ebay. What I really need are the homebrews, rare games and found games. If anyone can sell me what I need or point me to the list of missing games I would appreciate it. Here are the rare(ish) games that I have saved or found: Pac Man Collection Pac Man Sentinel Combat 1990 Missing in Action Space Duel Pac Pollux Dual Pac Man 7800 Traveller Asteroids Deluxe Santa Simon Failsafe Klax Pac Man Plus Beef Drop Robot Finds Kitten Q*bert Beef Drop VE Save Mary Bonq Possible Mission 32-1 Halloween Cartridge Pac Nestor Thanks alot!

Blue Azure Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I remember you, but I wasn't here when you were here. Welcome home. There's a ton of activity here right now with the XM about to go live, and a ton of hacks which you say you're not interested in. You might think twice about that as many of the games you list are "hacks". Here's a source for many of the bins you're looking for, plus Atariage may have some of them. http://www.atari7800.org/bin.htm The one you won't get is COMBAT 1990. It is SOLD OUT and nobody will give it to anyone. I once had one and dissected it. It was a 32K format with two 16K operating version images, one signed. It was great for its time, but then Bob's Armor Attack2 came along this year and blows it away. So you should look that one up. Here's Santa Simon you can find on the net by googling SANTA SIMON 7800. Many of the games can be found that way. SantaSimon.zip njoyall & a great weekend to you. ///BLUEMAN/// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 All the homebrews you can buy from Al from the store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loktar Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 All the homebrews you can buy from Al from the store eh actually there's a few you can't. Im in the same boat as Vinnie, I have the entire 7800 released library and am now working on the homebrews.. but I already know the ones not on the atariage store will be close to impossible to find.

Cousin Vinnie Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 Thanks guys! So if I use the store to fill the gaps I would still need help getting these. Any ideas? Super Circus Pac-Man 320 Ms. Pac Man 320 Gorf UFO Warbirds Plutos Sirius Apple Snaffle Nyan Cat Senso DX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird3rd Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Warbirds is a game that Gorf was working on, but I don't think it was ever finished. You can get reproductions of Plutos and Sirius from other AtariAge members; I don't make them any more, but I believe CPUWIZ still does. As for Combat 1990, Video61 still lists it on their site for $39.95, but if they don't have it any more, let me know; I can send you a CIB copy that I only used once or twice.

Jinks Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I think pac man 320's both never released game is finished tho. I think super circus was waiting for xm release due to pokey sound. Same goes for bentley bear. I need all those games also.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 As I said earlier, ask Bob about his games, at worst he will probably give you permission for Al to make them for you.nyan cat never made on cart. Gorf UFO and warbirds no roms released never mind carts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinMos3 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) Glad to see you back. I really missed your website when it went down. Do you plan to bring it back? As for your last list: Super Circus, Pac-Man 320, and Ms. Pac Man 320 are waiting on the XM since they use the Pokey chip. They should eventually be available in the AA store. Gorf, UFO, Warbirds, and Apple Snaffle are all unfinished works in progress. Hopefully, we'll see Apple Snaffle (by Groovy Bee) released when the XM comes out, but I've not heard any word on it for a while. The other three (originally by Gorf, but source code handed off) may eventually get finished, but there's a lot on Bob's plate so only he could give an idea about those. As Jay said, you can get Plutos and Sirius repros from various members. I'm currently out of cart parts or I'd offer my help. I suppose you could get the Nyan Cat demo made as well, but I don't know anything about Senso DX. Edited June 22, 2013 by KevinMos3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Azure Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 You can get "everything" on cart at the atariage store. You just need to provide the binary and the label art (or instructions for a pre-existing artwork), and go here: http://atariage.com/store/index.php?l=product_detail&p=950 $30 per cart is very reasonable, IMHO. ///BLUEMAN/// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a 32k non pokey game your fine, however if you need any of the supercart features (pokey,extra ram,bank switching) you are out of luck. And Al certainly won't make a cart if the author has not given permission Edited June 23, 2013 by mimo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Azure Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 True, the final sales decision is up to Al and limited up to 32K non-pokey. That's why my "everything" is in quotes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+slx Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hi, glad to see you're alive. I always relied on your reviews to select games for my 7800. It would be great to see your reviews online again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarifever Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Do you remember Cousin Vinnie's Panoramic Atari 7800 Froo Froo? Remember it? I still sometimes use it. Pretty much the whole thing is available in the Wayback Machine. Welcome back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted June 28, 2013 Author Share Posted June 28, 2013 I bought a crap ton of games from the store last night, and alot of the games I listed as needed are not released yet. So.... what you are saying is that I can send him the binary code, links or attachments to art, and buy his blank cartridge from the store and he can basically make the game with the programmer's permission. So I could basically get Plutos and Sirus that way... leaving only Nyan Cat and Senso DX from the list of completed/ released games. Is that what I am understanding? Speaking of which, I see Rescue on Fractalatle-ding dong has been released... how far along was that game? Can you play it? What about Rampart?

mimo Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Plutos and sirius need extra ram so you won't be buying them from the store. Try cpuwizz he might make them for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Azure Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Yupperz, you should be able to submit a binary and artwork (for anything 32K and below, no ram, no pokey) to atariage and they should be able to create a cart for you). It seems like many of the games you're asking about have been or are being sold at atariage. Nyancat7800 can be downloaded direct here: http://scene.org/fil...tg_nyan7800.zip I think it's just a demo, like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CO_HcjzU4SI I haven't seen cart art for it. Hopefully this helps you, and things settle down for you and you can get back into the Atari action. ///blueman\\\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Vinnie Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 Looks like I need another Atari 7800, the one from the fire just FRIED. Anybody have an extra for sale? I also need a Sirius and Plutos CV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
