Welcome to our 123rd Squad Challenge!  For this challenge we're jumping into one of the greatest Activision games of all time, Barnstorming! Barnstorming was released in 1982 for the Atari 2600 and was designed by Steve Cartwright who also created Megamania which you may remember playing in High Score Squad just a few short months ago. NOTE: We are playing Game 3 on with both Difficulty Switches set to A. Special thanks to @btbfilms76 for nominating this game for High Score Squad! ROM and PDF Instruction Manual are provided below. I hope you all have fun, and good luck to everybody participating!

Welcome to our 122nd Squad Challenge!  For this challenge we're celebrating spring with a fun "extreme games" event that we can take with us on spring break or summer vacation! We're enjoying the fast, free-wheeling momentum of the BMX event in California Games. ROM and Instructions are provided below. Even though it's an Atari game, you won't have E.T. there to help fly your BMX over the hills. Points are awarded for jumps and tricks, with bonus points awarded at the end for time. Will you be "As Good As James"?

I gave this one a go as I had never played it previously. 47660.
 
It's quite a rework of the original 2600 version, but I doubt I'll play it further.

34,670.

New pb:43200
I'm getting calibrated 

39,060. This time playing on a Retron 77 with a good old CX-40.

Two things make me nostalgic together. Atari 2600 games and music from the 1980s together make me feel like a kid again. It brings back memories by playing Atari games and listening to 1980s pop music at the same time. Thanks for letting me share. :O)

I'd have to say playing GameBoy Camera. So many memories playing the mini games and finding the intricacies of that peripheral. From hearing the "candid camera" song commercial ("Smile..you're on GameBoy Camera") to playing in my grandmas house when I was seven years old.

Hey @Gianna! Thank you! 😄

Hey @chas10e don't suppose you have the same name? 😁 Thank you! Thank you! It so nice to be here. I appreciate it so much!
