Nukey Fixed this. Try this one -- I've played it on Stella and it worked Fine.

Thank you very much, Cortat G!!
I have played Kool-Aid Man with my Stella Emulator (Version 3.4.1) already, with my final score or 17,000 points (Default Settings). It's working properly.

There is an Easter Egg Screen on 2600 Kool-Aid Man. See this page!
Stephen Tatsumi (ST) and Jane Terjung (JT), the programmers of Kool-Aid Man, hid his initials.

How about a little REVENGE from Ministry (1983)

Pretend Yars' is singing to the Qotile... and she's a female. ;)

There was an actual Yars' Revenge song...



I am a big fan of Ministry, here is the video for Revenge.

Finally saw the shield turn grey. But I am NOT going to be knocked out!

So I'm playing, I have over 200K with 9 extra lives. And you know what happens next.

Like the one that got lost under the porch last year (because no one could find it during the hunt), I find the smelly, rotten, disgusting easter egg and it's all for naught.

Even though I was trying to avoid the easter egg, I still got it three games in a row.

I don't know if I have the heart to try this one, anymore.

I've had that happen to me a number of times as well. Very frustrating. Then I decided to pick one specific spot to return to after each score, and that seemed to successfully avoid the easter egg

Just don't be on the same vertical line as the swirl when you destroy it and you'll avoid the easter egg. :)

What would happen if both players eligible to win this knockout roll the score on the last game of this tournament?

Thanks to everyone who volunteered info on avoiding the easter egg. It obviously helped.

I really wanted to break 300K, so now I'm torn between banking this score and moving on or giving in to the urge to try this one again.

Cool, i'll never make it that far.
There's been so many rolls already, maybe you could have one of the games be very difficult like Stuntman.
But who knows, maybe someone here could roll it. :-o :-o

Atari 2600 Knockout Round 3: has claimed its victim... pis.

However, he can still show up (everyone here too!) and post scores and be ranked for the upcoming games ...
