Has anyone ever thought about doing the sequel to the Burgertime game for the 7800. It was only released for the intellevision system. The name of the game is "Diner". It looks like it really rocks too. I just thought that game would be great to have for the 7800 system. I hope someone agrees and tackles that one as a new homebrew.

Well, you won't find that many better, better-thought out and better-presented ideas than suggesting a port of an already existing game that anyone interested can instantly try to see for themselves.

Would be a nice idea. The homebrew programmers usually do games that they want and don't do requests.

That means people like you wouldn't get a time of the day.

I think programmers wouldn't always want to do console ports.

They may want do something like this: Super Monkey poop fight.

They also may want to do other types of games.

The 7800 has big holes types of games they have.

It's tougher to fill then the 5200 because of the 400/800 games can be ported over to the 5200.

I stand corrected :)

This is a neat opportunity for me to point out that the World's best Zen Simulation has been ported to the 7800 quite some time ago
