Running Atari Basic games

[jimbox114]

I recently purchased an Atari Flashback Portable. I loaded several custom roms on a sd card under the /game folder including a game I have been working on and the only one that shows up is Sonic which I downloaded over a year ago from the forums here. It seems Atari Basic games can work on it although apparently something is required. Is there a file to download or a tutorial somewhere that shows you what to do or is it something on Atgames end and completely out of my hands?

Yes, Atari Flashback BASIC games run on the portable and the BASIC is cross compatible with Virtual World BASIC, enabling BASIC SuperCharger games to also run on the portable.
