+Yurkie Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Is there anyone with programming knowledge that would care to determine if Pepper II is possible on Atari 2600. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/364576-pepper-ii-possible/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bruce-Robert Pocock Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 It seems that the last known owners were probably Washington's Mean Hamster, CEO John Swiderski — so licensing would probably mean hunting him down to see who has the current rights to the Exidy catalogue. He's personally written some 5200 homebrews, so it's not unreasonable. ref: https://atariage.com/programmer_page.php?SystemID=5200&ProgrammerID=273 ref: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnswiderski/details/experience/ Technology-wise, something like that could surely be done, to some degree. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/364576-pepper-ii-possible/#findComment-5445267 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 The rights may get complicated even more since Collectorvision owns the Exidy name. Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/364576-pepper-ii-possible/#findComment-5445297 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see this great game brought to the 2600! You're right James Absolutely it could be done, especially using the ARM and a similar game engine like the one I developed for Qyx. Pepper II is a game I have looked into as I was a fan of the Colecovision version back in the day. 4 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/364576-pepper-ii-possible/#findComment-5445435 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pepper II is a lot of fun on the Colecovision. It would be great on the 2600. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/364576-pepper-ii-possible/#findComment-5448209 Share on other sites More sharing options...
