I was reading up on Atari basic last night... interesting stuff. I'm pretty sure I could make games for the 2600 now. The question is, would they be any good? Yots: Am I being stubborn for holding out for a woodgrain sixer before re-entering the Atari market? I notice most people play on a jr or a 7800. I was thinking about doing the composite mod you posted as well and I wonder if people would consider that sacrilege. |

Howard, make your own game! There are some cool homebrews out there, I'm sure you could whip up something cool. I modified a Heavy Sixer I had and a Jr I was given. To be honest, the Jr has a better picture than the Sixer after the mod, but neither of them really look good on a modern LCD. Since the new TVs process out flicker and stuff, some games don't look right. Asteroids is a good example. If you have a CRT that has composite in, it'll look awesome. But on a fancy new LCD, I'm not so sure. I'm chuffed because I actually fixed the Jr. I did the mod but the picture wasn't right. So I figured out the chroma pot was bad and I swapped it out and now I'm golden. Sent from my SM-G386T using Tapatalk |

Hmm... see that's why I asked you, I figured you would have done it enough to know. I wonder if pumping it through a dvd player or something via rf would result in better compatibility with modern tvs. The audio could be split out which, in theory at least, would reduce the interference commonly associated with a rf connection. |
