Shawn Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 Hey All, Has anyone ever made any light gun games for the 2600? I would be intrestred in buying. Shawn Sr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetset Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 No homebrews made, but Sentinel uses the lightgun. I've asked some of the guru's here to put Shooting Arcade on a cart but it's apparently next to impossible to do. Get a 7800, there are several lightgun games.

Rob Mitchell Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 There was a rumor of a homebrew light gun game for the 2600. ... Shooting Arcade works great on the Cuttle Carts. Rob Mitchell, Atlanta, GA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 Shooting Arcade works great on the Cuttle Carts. It's too hard / imprecise to be much fun though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch I think he is using a Sega Master System lightgun adapter that I made for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a pretty good shot with Shooting Arcade (SMS gun with adapter). Actually Shooting Arcade is one of the many, many reasons that I bought the Cuttle Carts.

StanJr Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 there was talk at last Philly that Cassidy Nolen might take up the task of getting Shooting Arcade in a cart. Wonder if that is still on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, I don't remember having that much problem with either the Sega or Best gun. Oh well. Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted October 5, 2004 Author Share Posted October 5, 2004 what is a cuttle cart?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 what is a cuttle cart?? Cuttle Cart 1 Cuttle Cart 2 Both are, unfortunately, no longer in production. And before you ask, additional production runs are extremely unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted October 6, 2004 Author Share Posted October 6, 2004 what is an average going rate for a cuttle cart model 1 (the 2600 version) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 what is an average going rate for a cuttle cart model 1 (the 2600 version) A few hundred $$$. If you want something cheaper, I suggest looking forward to the KrokoCart (~$100). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Jentzsch Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 What is the status of the KrokoCart? IMO it looks done. But AFAIK Armin still wants to improve the hardware a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Mitchell Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Shooting Arcade works great on the Cuttle Carts. It's too hard / imprecise to be much fun though. I just built another SMS adapter to use the SMS lightgun with the Atari 2600/ 7800/ 8-bit. So I just scored 11,630 playing Shooting Arcade in my first game. Easy! Back to the question which is the title of this thread: What happened to the lightgun homebrew game? Any more in development?
