4ever2600 Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 You know how back in the day, Activision released a 4 in 1 cart, was like 4, 4k games on one board, and everytime you turned the unit off and on again it would be a different game? How hard is that to do? Is there any programming involved or is basically handled by the hardware of the individual board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How hard is that to do? Is there any programming involved or is basically handled by the hardware of the individual board? What you describe would be implemented in hardware. A circuit (which may be built into the custom ROM) detects the power cycle and cycles through which 4K of ROM is accessed by the 2600.

4ever2600 Posted March 16, 2004 Author Share Posted March 16, 2004 Thanks Eric! Still playing the hell out of your Skeleton Plus game, on my Atari and Gameboy Advance... LOVE IT! Yo Albert? This something you think you / Atari age could build? A 16k board that accompanies 4, 4k roms? Lemme know... Thanks! - Daryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
