Video 61

This was a floppy disk-based program that I had converted to cartridge format using custom code that I own. This gives you much quicker loading times than a traditional floppy disk. This is a cartridge that I use all the time when I am in my computer lab.I call it my "right hand," and I carry it around in my pocket.

Here is a first look at one of our new games we are porting over to the Atari 7800. It's a work in progress. This is actually from the 7800 version we are porting.
It's Laser Blast X, it should be awesome on the 7800

This is a demonstration of a rare prototype version of "Missile Command," for the Atari 5200(with pam low, and pam hi). It could (or could not) be a later-stage prototype because it is so close to the released edition you see today.

But, it is indicative of a possible early prototype because it has PAM labeled on the EPROM chips, both low and high.

NOTE: PAM was the code name for Atari 5200, by the way.

its one of the games that makes the 5200 controller shine. i was really bummed when i saw missile command on the XEGS, they did not make it into a light gun game, i was stunned, because atari was bragging to all of us dealers, they had a system and games to compete with the NES. and they said yes we have a light gun to.
 
 so why not make a game that was a obvious candidate for a light gun, make it into a light gun compatible, instead of the old game everyone knew about, and were tired of.
 
 by making it into a light gun game, it would have made renewed interest in the game, and more machine sales.
 
 same thing can be said about the 7800 cracked, the joystick, are you insane. it was a light gun game from the get go. the joystick is way to slow. played it a couple of times back in the 80's, never booted it again till i decided to see what it could do with a trak-ball, in trak-ball mode. no go their either, a complete waste of a game.

its simply amazing how much atari dumped into hardware, yet did almost nothing game wise. when jack t. told me and bruce at b&c computervisions that atari was working on a jaguar 2 to make up for all of the mistakes on the jaguar 1, we asked him what about games, how about supporting the jaguar first before you plan on more hardware. it looks like he wanted more hardware.
 
 he never understood that no matter how good the hardware was, you needed games, lots of games, games can be so so, good, nitch games, even great games, that's what it takes, a wide variety of games.

Pole Position II reacts very well with Video 61's Atari 7800-compatible Trak-Ball controller. It does not work at all in the menu, but the car is pretty controllable in Trak-Ball mode. Of course, both buttons work quite well with the Pole Position II scheme of acceleration and braking.
