Foxsolo2000 Posted August 9, 2006 Author Share Posted August 9, 2006 Rom found this interesting clone of a 2600. Thought you might like to see it. Tom Brazil, found this game on Brazillian Ebay. Could you ask the seller what the game was? And finally Rom I dont believe you this Enduro on Atarimania although I could be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 (edited) We already have the Cosmovision Enduro in our database, but the Commander Video game is new for me. Which game is it? Edited August 9, 2006 by Rom Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxsolo2000 Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 No idea. It was on the Brazillian website which is why I asked Tom to talk to the seller to see if he could find out. Hopefully he can provide the answers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codyr783 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 What ive always wondered is who programmed Bobby is Going Home and who was the first company to release it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxsolo2000 Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 What ive always wondered is who programmed Bobby is Going Home and who was the first company to release it? Rom Hunter would be your best bet for an answer as he has several therioes in the matter. Anyway does anyone have any of the games listed?

Seriously though, at the risk of sounding like a cracked record does anyone have any ideas on the remaining games on the list? Any help would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rom Hunter Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Seriously though, at the risk of sounding like a cracked record does anyone have any ideas on the remaining games on the list? Any help would be greatly appreciated Some of these titles are found on Taiwanese multi-game carts. This could explain the fact that some of these titles haven't shown up as single game carts yet.

Chris-in-NJ Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Never having seen one, I'd say that Taiwan Cooper carts are NTSC since Hong Kong and Taiwan use NTSC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is very true but sadly I have never been able to get my hands on the multi carts in question to see what the games are. It also leads to the question if any of the listed games made it as single enders or were they just destined to be multi-cart titles? Most of the games I chased on this thread have surfaced as cartridges in their own right and I cling to the belief that somewhere out there they exist. I just need that lucky break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interior cart plastics are just like an Atari trapdoor cart (I haven't checked for parts interchangeability, but it uses the same design of trapdoor and spring) but the exterior of the cartridge features six grooves on either side on the edges and extending about 1" across the back. In the middle, between the grooves, are raised letters "S.S.". The label features the painting of the child running toward an arch bridge, but the text is above the picture, two lines, in Avant Garde bold. The text is left aligned; the edges of the second line line up with the edges of the picture. The circuit board contains a window 2732 EPROM with no label. The board is labeled "ROB 2732" and has labels for the 74LS04 and EPROM, but no manufacturer info. So what do I have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supercat Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Grey label with big white letters, right? Yeah, though none of the Quelle games on the site looked quite like this one. It may be useful to have an area of your site describing different cartridge plastics and boards. I'll see if I can get some photos if that would be helpful.

supercat Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 BTW: it's a standard Quelle cart. AtariAge also has a scan of it. It does match perfectly. Curious none of the Quelle carts on your site (for any title) seem to match that style. I'm also curious why the interior mechanical design seems to match normal Atari trapdoor style so perfectly. BTW, it might also be helpful for your site to include some sort of ROM checksum in your tables (at least for games where you have the code). That wouldn't eliminate the need for a "based on" column (since hacks would have totally different checksums from the games on which they were based), but could help clarify confusion that may surround different code versions, both in cases where two companies independently e.g. hacked an NTSC game to PAL, and in cases where a game was found to have bugs after release and consequently corrected. The latter issue, IMHO, could be especially interesting if the site could identify "open questions". For example, what label variations correspond with what ROM releases of Superman, Dodg'Em, or Asteroids? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omegamatrix is trying to find out what label variations correspond with what double released ROMS. Once that puzzle is 100% solved, I will put the right ROM to the corresponding label variation. BTW: our whole Quelle collection still needs to be scanned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
