Albert Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 For those who are itching for another label contest, we are going to launch a new contest in a few days to design a label for the upcoming Krokodile Cart. The winner of the contest will receive a free Krokodile Cart, which will have a price of around $99. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenwood Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 I will make a list of people who are interested. And If I have the feeling that 25 could be sold, they will be available (most likely in the AtariAge store if Albert agrees) Put on the list. I'll buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanJr Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Is there a viable ETA for this project? I see we are at or near the post production stages so I assume it will be released soon, yes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kroko Posted October 16, 2004 Author Share Posted October 16, 2004 The desing is finished. Just need to wait for the results from the final tests. I think it will be available very soon after we have a nice label for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 actually after looking, the cuttle cart I have is the original 2600 one. So what is the difference between it and the krok? who plays more games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kroko Posted October 18, 2004 Author Share Posted October 18, 2004 So what is the difference between it and the krok? who plays more games? I think the cuttle cart plays more games. Differences are: * KC is a multicart CC is not * KC will be available CC is no more (or are you selling yours ?) * KC downloads games much faster * KC plays 3F games up to 512K CC up to (damn i don't know but less than 512K) * KC plays EF , CC does not (=> Homestar RPG) * CC plays E0,E7,FE and Starpath KC does not (and maybe another bs mode I forgot) They are just a bit different :-) Kroko.

Stingray Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Is there a place where I can pre-order one of these. I don't want to miss the boat like I did with the CC & CC2. -S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whisper Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I know I shouldn't use this old shit, but would the CK software work on Win98? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I know I shouldn't use this old shit, but would the CK software work on Win98? Should work, maybe you have to download some support libraries for the database. And when the Java version becomes available then it should run on almost any platform.

keilbaca Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Java version? that's pretty interesting.

hepcat Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I just ordered mine! This is going to be great since I've sold nearly all of my collection now except for 20 or so carts. Now I can play all those hacks I've been wanting to try as well. --Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 So what are the advantages / disadvantages of the KC compared to the CC2? Will the KC work with a 7800 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 So what are the advantages / disadvantages of the KC compared to the CC2? Well, first, keep in mind that the Krokodile Cart is half the price of the Cuttle Cart 2. With that in mind, the CC2 is a 7800 cartridge that supports both 2600 and 7800 games. It also uses an external memory card (MMC) and has a nice, on-screen menu for selection of games, options, viewing of manuals, and so forth. The Krokodile Cart has 512K of onboard flash memory, that must be programmed by plugging the Krokodile Cart into a computer (using a serial connection) and with the Krokodile Commander software. The Krokodile Cart is a 2600 only cartridge and only supports 2600 games. Both devices support a wide range of bankswitching modes, with each supporting a few the other device does not. One unique feature of the KC is that it allows you to create multicarts using the Krokodile Commander software. You can create multicarts that support 4K, 8K, 16K, and 32K games. A multicart of 4K games will hold up to 127 titles. When you fire up the cart, you see an onscreen menu of all the games loaded onto the cart. Once programmed, the Krokodile Cart acts as a normal 2600 cartridge. Right now the Krokodile Commander software is a Windows application, but Andrew Davie is working on a Java app that should run on other platforms. Will the KC work with a 7800 ? Good question, I haven't tried my prototype cart on a 7800 yet, but I'll give this a shot and see what happens. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
