Feralstorm Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 For what little it's worth, I could see Major Havoc done on the 2600 (or at least the inside-base bits) using a variation of the kernel for Thrust. From a purely graphical standpoint, Coleco DK is pretty decent, and becomes more arcade-close with some judicious hacking. The main flaws are, as I see it, NOT a lack of multicolored bits, but a bigger than 4K size to allow for more than two screens, and more complex sprite behavior, so you might have to deal with more than one barrel or fireball at a time.

Godzilla Posted January 30, 2006 Author Share Posted January 30, 2006 'tis far from a modified screen shot. I hand built those images, pixel by pixel, using 2600 accurate playfield and player/missle elements, even used 2600 accurate # of scanlines for each picture, and deliberatly severly limit the number of colors per scan line, in the original posts this came from, all that is detailed. Also, lost monkey threw a rom together. And it isn't trolling, it's inspiration. and, yes, after seeing what has been with the 2600 post-death, I do believe anything is possible. even dragon's lair (that's another post, tho. look it up. :-) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For one thing, if the number of scanlines was correct the images would have been 640x400, not 640x480. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabventure2600 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 (edited) A reminder, folks. The reason Godzilla's mockups look so k-rad aws0me d00d is because he basically ignored the technical limitations of the 2600's display hardware. Such displays would be impossible to recreate in any sort of playable form on a real 2600. An actual best-case 2600 Donkey Kong remake would probably look more like this (and even this is pushing it): 623666[/snapback] Can you do something better? When you come here and show more than your yada yada,ill give you some credit....and ill say"yes...i was wrong about..that......robot face?" Now Manuel,or other moderators......My delete process will start........... Edited January 30, 2006 by fabventure2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could draw mockups with two colors per scan line that would be completely impossible without severe flicker, while I could draw some with 17 solid colors per scan line that would be entirely possible (even without flicker, venetian blinds, or anything). To be sure, a 17-color one wouldn't look like much of a game, but it would show that scanline color counts don't really mean much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?s...&hl=donkey+kong as you yourself noted in the original post, they are 240 scanlines. I made the pixels double-fat so that the images didn't look ridiculous on a pc (which is a non-interlaced display,) on a television, they would look just as they do in my images.

Godzilla Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 I built him (DK) out of the play field, which I think suits his stature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
