John Brackbill Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Someone in another thread suggested compiling a list of homebrews that do currently work on the 2600+. I thought I would start that thread. Please only list those that DO work, AND region. I have a relatively small homebrew collection, but here is what I have that works, so far (ALL are NTSC): Cannonhead Clash Galactopus Gyvolver Juno First Hunchy 2 Lead Thrust+ (NOT DC) L.E.M. Squish ‘Em Ninjish Guy in Low Res World Blinky Goes Up Conquest of Mars 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lead did not start. Thust+ starts but fire is pressed all the time. As said, all PAL (60)! Edited December 17, 2023 by DEANJIMMY 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonicdemon11 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Anyone tested aardvark yet by chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+karri Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Aardvark is a SC game. The 2600+ messes up the recognition of the cart for me. If you put the cart on a flash cart with no RAM emulation it works. Hopefully Atari delivers a new dumper that would fix this soon. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+OLD CS1 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I tested all of the 2600 home-brews I own, as well as some 7800. As I note later in the thread, Beef Drop (7800, POKEY version,) works, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
