OK, that should be doable. 

Thanks for summing that up so nicely atarilbc. I agree wholeheartedly that b*nQ and Beef Drop on the 7800 compare quite well with the GCC arcade conversions. Ken Siders had a lot to be proud of. This will be a nice way to enjoy his games and appreciate what he gave to the Atari world in the short time he was here. Thank you again!

I never knew the guy but did get to enjoy Beef Drop through emulation.  Very talented person lost.  This is a great way to honor his life.
 
Played with an emulator and keyboard.  My first time play it.  Spot on conversion of the arcade and better than what PB did.  I will have another go once I get my controller setup again.  I use an original XBOX controller to play emulated PC and Steam games most of the time.
 

 
 

Welcome to Atari. IO!  

This is my best game of b*nQ ever: 89,560.
 
Played in 45 degree orientation with the grey CX-40. Level 5-2.
 

This is very, very appropriate to remember Ken.  Here is my score:

I have always known about several unreleased and / or vaporware consoles and hardware but I recently stumbled onto this one I had never heard of and so for any of you who are interested in such things and might not know check it out. Here is a link to the story ( an Interview with Yukiharu Sambe, R&D manager of the unreleased Taito WOWOW ) on Unseen 64's site -

Thank you!  And I never really liked this game nor played it often.  It's back on the shelf now...not sure when I'll play it again.  LOL, 

Welcome to Atari. IO!  

Great job gang!! Big time scores, congrats on the big digits!!

I would like to say hello to the community. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of a great group of individuals who spend allot of time and research to give knowledge to the community. I am a huge fan of No Swear Gamer, Atari 2600 Game by Game Podcast and Justin here at Atari.IO. I enjoy Justin's gameplay series on Instagram and he is just an all around good guy who treats everyone with respect.

Congratulations kamakazi!

Great scores up there in the top 3!  Nicely done everyone. 

Congratulations kamakazi!

So I'm gonna use this thread to highlight some of my collection here and there. First, I figured I'd share my recently completed Wii U set that I finished this past Sunday.
 

 
There are 161 games in a full set, soon to be 162. Just dance 2018 releases at the end of October for the Wii u and surprisingly the original Wii too along with current gen consoles. I got bit by the Wii U bug pretty hard. Before I decided to go for a full set I had 33 games already. It took me a month and a half, some local trades and a bunch of gamestop trade credit. Their 60% trade bonus when I took in games was awesome and a week later they ran a buy 3 used Wii u games get 30% off. That's when I went nuts. I'm really happy to have the set.
 

 
So this makes the Wii u the second console that I have a set for. The 1st being the Atari 5200.

Wednesday at noon CDT.
