fabman99 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Hi All, need you advice on these 2 items as too what you think : 1st one is clearly marked on cart but by whom ?, fox or store seller ? 2nd one is as seen in pics, but I can not get any game play to start up, only the squiggy color lines, is it a goner ? Who made it ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 First one is a 20th Century Fox review copy.Second one is most probably Alligator People, a 20th Century Fox prototype:http://www.atariprotos.com/2600/software/alligator/alligatorproto.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Don't like the looks of the Eprom window being exposed...the entire program is probably corrupted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atari181 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I have the same Deadly duck, it is definitely a review copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+frankodragon Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 One of the board's traces looks like it's been cut or just may be dirt on the right side of the EPROM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabman99 Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 Hi All, thanks for the info. I actually have Deadly Duck, Worm War I, Fast Eddie and Beany Bopper all the same. On the Weird game, I got it in a small game lot along time ago and put it aside because it would not play and just tried it again. The previous owner that had it, may have exposed it on a longer basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supergun Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 ...undeniably true... but for the record, I use them as donors, cause my personal carts use real boards in proper shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used a regular board and it still did not work. So my question is the problem the board or the the extra chip onboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a dead 7404 but as Frank mentioned before there is that one trace on the board which does look suspect. I would do a continuity test on it to be sure before removing or replacing the hex inverter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
