tep392 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 This is probably a good place to announce this. Anyone who has purchased a Donkey Kong XM or PK cart from me can have a copy of the binary to run on their Concerto cart. Just PM me with your request. 14 5 Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/230751-sd-cartridge-for-7800/page/94/#findComment-4696279 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I will allow for POKEY sounds in the two POKEY Retail games and also homebrews that use the POKEY CHIP. 1 Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/230751-sd-cartridge-for-7800/page/94/#findComment-4696280 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you will be able to play Ballblazer and Commando with full original POKEY sounds, but more importantly, you will be able to play and test the demos, hacks and re-writes that use POKEY as well. Also, most of 7800 homebrew authors provide late-build/near-final binaries or almost-complete demos of their games to test and try out on real hardware. And as he has posted above Tep392 will provide a binary for people who have already purchased Donkey Kong PK from him (which I have, so I will be PM’ing him this afternoon after work for the binary). 2 1 Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/230751-sd-cartridge-for-7800/page/94/#findComment-4696291 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you not noticed how many people have replied and reacted to this thread showing complete distain for everything you have posted here? You only serve to take away from this conversation and the enjoyment it brings to others. Mentioning "The Atari Report" is laughable as those videos are nothing more than a cringe compilation. The viewership alone should have gotten you the hint long ago that it's not working for you in the exact same way your postings here are not. 3 1 Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/230751-sd-cartridge-for-7800/page/94/#findComment-4696343 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The board does have a socket on it so you can just plug in your POKEY chip and it will still fit in the shell. I did not ask about the screw being exposed, or if you would need to cut (or peel back) the label to get to the screw. The carts come with the label unapplied, so you can put your POKEY chip in the socket and reassemble, then apply the label yourself. You can probably opt to not install the screw if you'd like and just let the snaps hold the cart together, as I believe CC2 was released that way and it seems to function alright without it (correct me if I am wrong.) 5 1 Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/230751-sd-cartridge-for-7800/page/94/#findComment-4696404 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be able to replicate Commando, Ball Blazer or such games sounds? Thanks! That is exactly what it's for, in addition to many homebrew games which support Pokey. TIA is only two channels, and is missing a LOT of notes in the musical scale. With a few exceptions, Pokey is needed for games to not sound like flatulence and blips. 19 hours ago, Lectronimo said: I asked Batari the same thing.

I did not ask about the screw being exposed, or if you would need to cut (or peel back) the label to get to the screw. My Concerto came with the label loose in the packaging. The screw is exposed. The label is available for once the cartridge is in its final configuration. Even though I installed a Pokey already, I am not adhering it until I am sure it's complete. Edit: Even thought I attempted to refresh this page, the answers didn't populate until I submitted. Sorry for the repeat. I don't know that the first question was answered though.
