cparsley Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Here is where the champions will meet, greet each other, and get ready for the carnage that will crown the grand Atariage champion! Grand Champions List (FINAL) Intellivision - Gezkc ColecoVision - skosh Atari 2600 (VCS) - toymailman Atari 5200 - sdamon Atari 7800 - patbb Nintendo (NES) - cparsley Genesis/MegaDrive (Sega) - swlovinist Alrighty gang, now that the list has been set, it's time to get it on. Champions, from the INTV, Coleco, NES, Genesis/MegaDrive and all 3 Atari consoles (VCS/5200/7800), we are now gathered here to see who will take down the right to be called the grand Atariage champion. Each champion submit one game that you would like to see played in this competition. The rules are as follows... Champions may only submit games from the console they are the champion in (VCS can only select a VCS game, etc). Also, no "well you can play it on my console with an adapter" games will be allowed. In addition, games are definitely flawed or have a obvious cheat in them may be disqualified from selection, but that will be handled on a case by case basis. They must also have a scoring mechanism to be able to be selected. Please post your game selection by June 24th, 2012. Failure to do so may result in either A) A random game being selected, or B) The runner up on your console being selected to defend your console's honor. Good luck to all champions, and good luck!

JacobZu7zu7 Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I contacted 7800 and 2600... requesting a game from them... I haven't sent a mail to CV or Sega winner... have you Chris? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cparsley Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 No, havent heard from their admins either, so I've extended the time for game requests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymailman Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 For the 2600 my selection will be Toyshop Trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadrunner Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 For the 7800, I select KLAX I'm pretty sure the 7800 version of Klax doesn't show the final score. You might have to pick another game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patbb Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 For the 7800, I select KLAX I'm pretty sure the 7800 version of Klax doesn't show the final score. You might have to pick another game. You're right, it goes away as soon as you're game over. I will select another game shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DamonicFury Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Looks like everyone is counted for... skosh, is last one to pick a game... I think? Still waiting for the NES selection as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skosh Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Sorry for the delay guys.... Galaxian for the Colecovision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patbb Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) For the 5200, I'll go with Missile Command. I tied to play this game in an emulator and I was not able to control the crosshair. Probably because I'm not using a analog joystick. Anybody knows if there is an emulator that can work with the mouse? With the keyboard or joystick it's unplayable. Maybe it will work with a XBOX controller? Edited June 12, 2012 by patbb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DamonicFury Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 While I use a real 5200 instead of emulation, I did a search and found this thread which has some tips for 5200 Missile Command emulation. Hope it helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skosh Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) I plan to use a real 5200 as well however found that Altirra also will work providing it is configured correctly to do so. The controllers need to have "Relative" set for the mode and it should work. I did not mess around with the speed parameter but imagine that should provide some tweaking for sensitivity. Hope this helps. Edit: I played around more with the configuration and you can also get the mouse to work as well. There is something for a 360 controller however since I do not have one I can not test but imagine that could also be setup to work. Also another option is if you have a joystick for the PC you can map that. Perhaps not needed in this case but a very useful problem for emulation is JoyToKey http://www.electraco...ish Version.htm which basically allows you to map keyboard inputs to your joystick.

toymailman Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I think I now have all the games on hardware except the 5200. I do not own a 5200 system. I'll have to try emulation when that game comes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patbb Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 What will be the duration of the tourney? I hope more than 2 weeks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+swlovinist Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I am ready to go! All the necessary games accounted for and "found" in my game room(missile command was a little lost). Is the 5200 trackball controller allowed for the tourney? Who else here has all physical copies of the game? http://s268.photobucket.com/albums/jj28/swlovinist/?action=view¤t=465802f1.jpg Been looking forward to this for a long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
