Mindfield Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 It was always one of my faves back in the day. I lived for getting to the Space Bar. Very well-done arcade conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I currently have the Midway Collection on the PS2. I think I'll have to play some more! (And start looking for the 2600 version! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch the arcade game for some time, I think you can see it in the attract mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntavio Posted January 7, 2006 Author Share Posted January 7, 2006 Sorry 'bout that...........Needed to get that off my chest 995797[/snapback] Yes it is, where did you get your copy? 995804[/snapback] Off Ebay in a large lot purchase a few years ago.

Omegamatrix Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Yes Tapper is a great game. Everytime I pull that cart out it brings a smile to my face. I think they did a great job converting it to the limitations of the 2600. I would have liked to see the patrons leave tips to collect though. Still a great game.

Lord Thag Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Tapper was a huge surpise to me when I finally got it for the 2600. I used to own the arcade, so you may imagine that I was a harsh critic. 2600 Tapper is one of the best (maybe THE best) arcade port on the system.

There's alot of pretty good conversions. Guess I need to spend some more time with Tapper. I was never a big fan of the arcade game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yuppicide Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Good conversion indeed. Even has the bonus round thingie done pretty good. My only gripe is the little line on the end of the bars. Looks weird. Guess I'm not that good at the Atari version, but I seem to remember a space scene in the arcade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayton Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I have never seen much less played the 2600 version (though I have played it on the Xbox Midway Treasure thingy). Everyone, please take time to feel sorry for me (and smack me for not having played the game). Okay, don't smack me really . I haven't shopped for 2600 games in a while. What is a good price for the game just in case I do run across it (even though I'll still pick it up probably, but you get the idea).

Mindfield Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 You can probably count on spenting at least $10-20 or so for it. Maybe less if the label's crap. The market's freaky right now so it's hard to say with any precision -- but then that does mean if you watch enough of them long enough you'll probably snag one cheap eventually. Worth every penny though even if you pay towards the high end. Any arcade conversion that works out this well and didn't have to sacrifice any game elements to do so is right up there in my books.

NE146 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I still think it's amazing they got the stages into Tapper as well as the bonus stage. I've said this before, but this game is prime for a hacking.. to make it into BUDWEISER Tapper. I'm sick of all this "root beer" and "mountain dew" and whatnot crap. Let's get it back to the original.. and that's Budweiser Budweiser need not be notified Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
