edlib Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 Hmmm... kinda cool, but really nothing like the original. I guess I'll just have to find a 2600 emulator and ROM downloads one of these days... or try to find old Atari hardware that still works since I still have all these cartridges.

Ray Jones Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 i downloaded a atari800 emulator from this site i dont remember anymore. but if i remember it right there was a 2600 emu for dl too.. and i dont know a place where to find such err.. cooooool hardware like atari2600 (although i know they exist).. but i remember i've seen a place where you can find guides to build big strange machines that will read out cartridges for emulator usage. i'd love to use old hardware, but emus have one advantage at hand. it's only as large or small as my vaio and gfx/sfx shots are as easy as .. uummm.. install windows.

leXX Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 My favourite retro games which I still play (on my Master System II) are: R-Type Shinobi Ninja Wonderboy Outrun Double Dragon Sonic the Hedgehog 1 & 2 Golden Axe Speedball 2 Prince of Persia Alex Kidd in Shinobi World Alien 3 ... and Tetris does rule. I spent many hours playing it when it first came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuuki Posted October 21, 2003 Author Share Posted October 21, 2003 I have to say nay, nute. it doesnt count Original Tetris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nute Gunray Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 Technically the Tengen produced Tetris (which I play for the superior game modes) predates the Bullet Proof Software version which most people incorrectly call the "original" Tetris. Besides, neither is the original Tetris because Tetris predates the US version of the NES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitro Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Ya know, those unauth'ed games can kill your box... Nintendo put in a sort of handshake authentication system to make sure that the games were licensed by Nintendo... The non-licensed ones use an electric jolt to the NES's "hand" to confuse it into thinking it got the right message... I went through 3 Nintendos before I found that out, and I immediatly sold my non-authed games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hm...somehow I can't see the entertainment value of this kind of game. Could be just me, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuuki Posted October 24, 2003 Author Share Posted October 24, 2003 It's not about BANG! Ker-POW! entertainment its 'this thing will drag you in kicking and screaming, and keep you drawn in, by keep challenging yourself to be better' type of entertainment... But with less 'big brother inforcement' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuicidalXWing Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 Tetris doesn't draw me in at all, that's the problem with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JangoClone#104 Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 Originally posted by Nute Gunray I wonder where my copy of Tengen Tetris is. Its gotta be worth something. there's this one guy who lives around me and he says that the tengen copy can sell somewhere around $50 because it's somewhat rare. that also reminds me, that thing they had in EGM, one of the games was tetris and one of the things the kids kept metioning is that tetris should have bombs.
