What 2600 Games Do You Wish For ?

Recommended Posts

What games either arcade coin-ops, sequels or original, do you wish they would have released for the Atari 2600, but never did ?

 

To get things started, here are some of my picks:

 

Asteroids Deluxe

Haunted House 2

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

Pac-Man Plus

Space Invaders 2

Swordquest Airworld

Yars Revenge 2

I always talk about Zoo Keeper, but have to second Super Pac as well. Others I'd love to see:

 

War of the Worlds

NBA Jam

Bagman

Tempest

Zektor

Food Fight

Aliens - side scrolling beat 'em up

AvP

Tutankham arcade

Turtles

 

...these could all be Supercharger games :)

Mike Ditka's Ultimate Football

Rugby

Kikstart

Paperboy

Oregon Trail

Leaderboard Golf (Mean 18 on the 7800 is a great substitute)

Hardball

BC Quest for Tires

Break Dancing

Jumpman

Lemmings

Outrun

Press Your Luck (too cheesy?)

Forbidden Forest

Space Taxi

 

Is my C= 64 bias too obvious?

More paddle games and paddle support for all games possible like Space Invaders.

Games for the trackball.

A sequel to Atari Video Cube called Atari Lament Configuration.

Games based on things from childhood(Garbage Pail Kids, Mad Balls, My Pet Monster...)

More Super Charger games.

 

 

I also wish paddles worked with Space Invaders.

Bubbles, as someone else mentioned, would be a good one. I would use the trackball to play it instead of the joystick. For some reason Williams made it a joystick game...

 

Here are some others:

 

Death Race - would prefer to use the driving controller. However, two buttons are required to go forward and reverse. I suppose if it could be written where the car could just spin 360 to get out of a corner or tombstone that would work. B/W graphics like the original.

 

Magical Spot II

Spiders

Astro Fighter

Pac-Man Turbo

Tail Gunner - using a trackball

Space Launcher

Smokey Joe - driving controller

Stratovox

Cutie Q - paddle game

Radar Scope

Tunnel Hunt - using a trackball

Cheeky Mouse

Starship 1 - trackball

Satan of Saturn

Datsun 280 Zzzap - paddle

MegaTack

Sky Raider - trackball

Eagle

Guided Missile

Space Firebird

 

Alright, if someone could get to work on this list and send me a PM when they're ready to go that would be great... :P

Never played Death Race, but isn't Zombie Chase kind of like it?

I agree but your list is too small. :)
