What is the current all-time best selling homebrew?

[Adrian M]

Is it Thrust?

Or is there some other game I'm not aware of?

 

I'm looking for all emcompassing sales, factor in any other variants (ie: Hozer or Packrat) that a title may have been released under as well.

I'm assuming it's probably Thrust.

[Thomas Jentzsch]

I am not sure about Thrust. There were some early games which sold very well on various conventions.

 

And no, I don't know the total Thrust sales.

Exactly' date=' which is what prompted this question.

I was specifically thinking about the late 1990's when homebrews were still relatively new and rare for the 2600. Games like[i'] This Planet Sucks[/i] and Oystron (which have been around for a long time) have no doubt seen good sales due to their lengthy time of availability as well as the possibility that they may have been available from other vendors (like Hozer).

The Synthcart probably hasn't been out long enough to have a total sales number as high as Oystron or SCSIcide, but since it has been released, it has always been the best seller at both Atariage and Hozer.

 

I'm sure it's because it appeals to both collectors and musicians. I've heard of a lot of people buying Ataris to use the Synthcart.
