Sr. Ferraz Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Dear friend Rom, These images had come of a CD (see below), not from site. The CD does not have more images to add here, don't worry. Really when I saw that cartridge I remembered my friend Rom Hunter, I thought about making the same. I obtained an image of a cartridge more rare to find !!! Atarimania manufactured cartridges with the personalized image of our friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rom Hunter Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 LOL I don't know what to say anymore. BTW: I've completed the total Atari list today: http://www.atarimania.com/lst_soft.php?MEN...n_sauver=Search It still needs some polishing, but I'm already very glad with it. It's by far the most complete Atari (re)release list in the world. Thanks to Philflound and Christophero! Without their help this list could never have been possible.

Foxsolo2000 Posted June 10, 2006 Author Share Posted June 10, 2006 Came across a website that listed Boing as being an Atari development under the CX number CX26128. Was this Boing the same one that First Star released or was it something entirely different and if it was the First Star one then why was Atari playing around with it? Does anyone know?

Rom Hunter Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 From Tempest's site: During the revival years (86-90), Atari planned to re-release Boing under their own label as they had done with several Coleco games. However for unknown reasons, Atari never got around to re-releasing it. Recently however a Boing prototype with an Atari lab label has been found, thus proving that Atari had actually obtained the original code from First Star.

I need to look in on his site more often. I am amazed that Atari wanted to rerelease such an obscure title under their own red label. Was Boing that well known in the States? Several sites once had it listed as a holy grail game. I could understand why they went after the coleco games but First Star was a nobody company that only had the one game to their name. The mystery continues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rom Hunter Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 (edited) Boulder Dash. One of the very few originally home computer games that made it to the arcades. And that's one hell of an achievement. And don't forget the Spy vs. Spy series too. Great two-player stuff. Astro Chase was (mainly due to its intro) a real hype when it came out. And my personal favourite: Jim Nangano's Flip & Flop. I liked it even better than Q*Bert. Edited June 10, 2006 by Rom Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sr. Ferraz Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I 'saw' in auction from Ebay these cartridges, them are 'known'? The seller informs that they are PAL. The games are: Condor Attack, Missile Control & Surfer's Paradise. Excellent Sunday ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxsolo2000 Posted June 20, 2006 Author Share Posted June 20, 2006 Wolf Fighting was Pooyan and it was suppossed to have been a Star Game pirate. Year 1999 could be the same as The Year 1999 which was Condor Attack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I have at least a dozen of those, maybe more. Some day... some day... ! Cheers, Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know you could make it easier for us and just tell us what you know old friend. I still believe that you possess a Go Go Home Monster somewhere in your security vault.
