killersquirel Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Hello, I remember playing the extra level for pitfall 2 back in 1984 and I figured I would relive my childhood wonder and do it again last night. I collected the girl and the wolf and the mouse that normally pushes you off the screen, but I forget how to get to the extra level. Does anyone know how to do this? -mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 You forgot the Ring... I believe the minimum to pass the first level is getting the girl, the ring, and quickclaw (wolf). Then it talks about the new portal that opens up and goes from there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnice Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 This is such a great game! The extra level is a lot of fun. The only thing I didn't like about the game was the music being repititious (but still very impressive sound for the system, I think)! I'll admit that I had to cheat and use the level II map to find the area I was supposed to exit. Otherwise I think I would've played this game for a month and never have found it.

Godzilla Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I wish there were some way to just start at level 2. I've played through the first level of pitfall 2 so many times it's hard to make myself do it again every time I want to play level 2. I'd love to see the second level from the 5200 hacked to replace the single level in the 2600 version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 On a side note, is this the only activision port of a 2600 title with actual new content that isn't just either a straight port or a straight port with a few graphics tweaks, like all their other ports...

Susuwatari Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Someone here could maybe try to hack Pitfall 2 to offer an option to start directly in the second part. I've played the first part over so often I could probably do the whole thing blindfolded and still get a perfect score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmutzpuppe Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Sometime ago I made a hack http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.p...ghlight=pitfall Maybe it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 awesome! thanks schmutz! now if only I could get it on cart somewhere.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killersquirel Posted October 13, 2004 Author Share Posted October 13, 2004 I recommend the maxi-cart from www.vgwiz.com. This is a quality product that works great and should be in every 5200 collection. Now, they just have to make software for the mac, so I can just put my pc out to pasture once and for all. -mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killersquirel Posted October 13, 2004 Author Share Posted October 13, 2004 Hey Sku_u, You should change your avatar so it has a microsoft windows logo where the infogrames logo is. -mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sku_u Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Hmmmmmm..... Windows is a truly shotty product, and I did in fact leave my bank over the dissatisfaction with their crappy new touch screen windows based program today in favor of a non-MS influenced bank.

Godzilla Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 hey now, without windows we'd have nothing to run our atari emulators on :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 hey now, without windows we'd have nothing to run our atari emulators on :-) The Mac version of Stella works fine for me. -S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest you ask the teller what's running on her desk behind the counter. Of course, you'll pr'ly have to change banks again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogstar_robot Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 I regularly enjoy emulation on my Linux machine. 2600: z26 (thanks!) and xstella. check 5200/8bit: Atari800 and Atari++. check 7800: mess. check There is a Lynx emulator and I got a Jaguar emulator running last week but the performance was painful..oh well. I also enjoy decent Genesis, NES, Gameboy and SNES emulators. MAME works quite well. I haven't been interested in other systems but I doubt I'd want badly. There was a thread a couple weeks back on the 2600 forum about some 2600 inspired tunes. They were released in AAC which caused consternation but I could play those too. FAAD is your friend here. Windows isn't the entire world; it just seems that way sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
