In Topic: Quelqu'un parle-il le français?

Tue Sep 27, 2011 3:54 PM

Woo, merci à slydc pour le lien vers ccjvq.com

On dirait qu'il y a bien des Coleco-fans au Québec, ou peut-être sont-ils juste plus présents et vocaux sur AtariAge? Peut-être que l'ancienne usine Coleco à Mtl a influencé le marché dans le coin?

J'avais un ami d'enfance avec un Colecovision et le "freak of nature" qu'est le Super Action Controller. Étant largement exposé au NES alors, le Coleco était plus une curiosité qu'autres choses.

In Topic: What classic game from your childhood sticks out the most and why?

Good memories eating poutine and playing Ms. Pac-Man between stints of skiing at a ski resort. Even after being exposed to all those NES games, this arcade cabinet had a strange attraction for me.

In Topic: I´ve got email from ATARI today...

The developer of "Alien Space Retro" for iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad has received a similar letter from Atari.

Thread on TouchArcade forums.

In Topic: What 2600 games are like Berzerk

Sun Sep 4, 2011 7:24 PM

I guess you could say Venture shares some of the same traits as Berzerk.

Too bad you're limiting the topic to the 2600, else I'd say Space Dungeon for the 5200. Also, as most of everyone here knows, Robotron was directly inspired by Berzerk, except with the tension level turns up to eleven, plus an extra dose of crack. Williams' most intense game, to me anyway. Too nerve-racking for my tastes.

In Topic: New TV effects for Stella

Wed Aug 24, 2011 1:49 PM

Crackdown on emulators? Anyone care to brief me on this one? I have very little idea of what this constitutes of. Would it be related to the US legal system working more actively against software "piracy" and all that hoopla?

About Stella, I'm always glad to hear news about active work being done on it. It's already in great shape, and the new TV filter will only add to the overall polish.
