cgfatari79 Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 Hi can anyone tell me if there is a cart version of the brilliant game Mr Do as I’m trying to collect all the arcade conversions I can get me hands on but ideally on cart. Also is the centipede cart the bad conversion I have played on emulation or the 5200 version which is the best on any any platform? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 Mr. Do! for the 8-bits is indeed a brilliant arcade conversion, but it was, unfortunately, only released on disk and cassette. I'm sure, however, that Nir Dary would make you one if you asked. Nir has burned Mr. Do! onto a DataSoft "multicart" with a bunch of other excellent DS arcade conversions (Pac-Man, Pole Position, Pooyan) that's well worth getting. Our version of Centipede is the "crappy" one, but you can get the 5200 version on cart if you order the 5200 MultiCart from Sunmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 you can get the excellent centipede5200 for atari computers as well... "glenn the 5200 man" converted many 5200 games to the 800 in the 80s... (he put a "info screen" while loading in each release) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fres Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 There were a lot of 1/2 decent arcade conversions made for the a8. A multi-cart I'd be intersted in purchasing (as long as it didn't contain any typos) would be one that has all of the arcade conversions created for a8 including: pac-man donkey kong jungle hunt asteroids space invaders (and/or deluxe invaders) jr. pac-man super pac-man ms pac-man pooyan mr. do mr. do's castle gauntlet pole position robotron joust centipede (and/or 5200 version) mario bros (w/translator built in to fix sound, and/or xe version) crystal castles (and/or xe version) super cobra moon patrol (w/translator built in to fix sound) star wars frogger (with background music) defender dig dug galaxian millipede missile command berzerk stargate kangaroo (w/translator built in) ...and I'm sure there were others that don't immediately come to mind. That's be almost as cool as my mame cab. -OR- I guess a person could make his own cart using one of atarimax's flash carts, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saikyo Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 I know this is going of topic but if you have a SNES then Mr.Do! is available for that also! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
