Denial

Seems my acquaintance "osgorth" is back in the lead again. I believe he owns one of the loose copies, so I guess he's after a complete one finally...

You about next month btw Jeff? I'll be paying my visits to said "guest" here (Kris) for Thanksgiving...

By about 10 seconds I think :P Box is far better condition and it has the tray and warrenty card. So it truly IS complete. Still I'm not gonna go mad bidding for it as I'm just about to pay for moving house, but you never know where funds can come from... There ARE five complete copies now with this...

Don't remind me about GB20... with the Retro Survival project out of the way I can now go back to it, but that's removed 2 months of time I could have been spending on it.

And I'm just about to move house.

Lovely.

Before Xmas did I hear you ask? If you're lucky... but we'll see...

Wonder what this will go for?

Having "character" and a "look" doesn't mean sacrificing ease of use and navigation. I've seen it done well in the past. But anything using php forums can tend to look the same if it isn't jazzed up a bit. Hopefully the new Retro Survival CD I've done can show look + ease = good ...

And boring... they all look the same. Give it some character!

S'funny, I'm not actually having any problems at all

//blames it on being able to read what doctors write down

Thing is, it's kind of cute. In my eyes at least. Certainly one hell of a lot different to most other staidly designed sites.

But then it wouldn't be a X1531 cable, it would be a X1530 ;) 1530 = C2N aka C64 datasette 1531 = C16 datasette You can get both.. but the X1530 cables I've seen generally only work in conjunction with being connected to a C64, as opposed to the X1531 cable which directly connect a 1531 datasette to...

Or failing that, send it to me to transfer!

Curious... even though the program does tell you to press the dot at the centre of the overlay on the koala pad...

I've got the cart and two Koala pads, but I can't seem to get them to work with the game properly. NTSC/PAL problems? I've got two copies of the cart also and neither interact. They boot up fine though.

Whereas I know work on a few unreleased Atarisoft games was started, I've never heard anything about Joust at all.

Yes. Likewise for the C64. Never came out for either. It's in the master Atarisoft list along with being announced on the back of several other Atarisoft games. Not sure who was supposed to be programming it though.

No. This enables you to connect your PC to a computer and run games from the HD of the PC instead of using tapes/disks.
