perfect pitfall II ;^)

[orangest]

inspired by the Perfect Pitfall! thread (nice job!), i dug through some photos and found this one, taken back in my youth, that for whatever reason i didn't end up sending off to activision. maybe there's a patch out there for me somewhere...

Any chance you'd sell me a cart of this, or give me the ROM to download and use with Cuttle Cart.

Pitfall II rom + emulator = good

 

Pitfall II rom + Cuttle Cart= ???

 

Pitfall II cart + Atari Age marketplace forum, wanted thread = a likely deal with someone.

i have no extra cart to sell, but someone around here does.

it took me about 2 months on and off to get a perfect game when i first got this in the 80's

but pitfall i still havent come close and gave up many many years ago

Great Game. I enjoy it on the 5200 system. Would be nice to have had a 7800 version of the game.

Is this picture legit? I thought at the end he just dances until the music stops, and then you can't go anywhere. Or is that what happens with a perfect score, you can keep roaming around?

The game eventually goes into attract mode and Harry goes on about his day.

 

Well done!

Thanks for confirming that for me (and for the huzzah!), that's what I thought had happened. I was around 12 when I took the picture; my folks had one of those Advent VideoBeam big screen projector TVs and I wasn't sure if the shot would come out.

I just realized this is a 4 year old thread... Anyway, I always wanted to do it but I choke on the vultures at some point. I never let it sit long enough once finishing I guess. Still one of my favorites, and I am still impressed how such a large world to explore fit in such a small ROM chip, with things like the treasures, swimming and the balloon you can control.

I was intrigued by the "Advent VideoBeam big screen projector TVs." I had never heard of those, so I looked it up. Wow, those were pricey and probably incredibly impressive back in the day! You must have been the envy of all the kids in your neighborhood! It must have been awesome to play video games on it.
