I have just taken delivery of some cartridge games for my trusty VIC.
However, the display is shifted to the left on all but The Count (which I guess is fine as it's a text adventure).
Normal machine and tape game display is fine.
Could I be using NTSC carts in my PAL machine?
Has anyone come across this before and know of a fix?
Cheers,
Pete.

Have you tried to center the screen with cursor or function keys, or with the joystick? Usually you have to center the game screen in PAL land.

Well, you learn something new everyday. That sorted it
I had no idea you could do that. Nice and simple.
Cheers!

If anyone ever has written a VIC-20 FAQ, that should be one of the top questions.
