Impressive homebrew games on the Atari 7800

Yup, it seems like the 7800 may have actually been the MOST powerful console of the 3, based on how these homebrews look. https://content.invisioncic.com/r322239/monthly_2024_08/Atarimas-Snow.mp4.aed8827707e30d383557ad4ab3e52758.mp4

Someone is making a top down racing game for the 7800 right now that scrolls super smoothly on both axes, and in split screen 2 player mode. and it's also in hi res mode.

It handles it very well, there have been examples in some unfinished homebrew games like ReZolve, and official games like Dark Chambers.

Looks like the 7800 could even do a decent job at Zelda: Link to the past!

Impressive homebrew games on the Atari 7800

So this is really interesting, guys over on the Atari Age forum like to do experiments with NES games on the 7800. Below, you'll see someone experimenting with the 7800 high resolution mode. The 7800 has a max resolution of 320 x 240 with a maximum of 9 on screen colors, which is just barely...

Anybody remember the Sega Master System?

Which games were back ported to it? I'm curious.

I bought a physical copy of Bentley Bear's Crystal Quest off Atari Age, an awesome game! And a side scrolling platformer inspired by Wonder Boy/Adventure Island. Atari Age and Songbird Productions have a lot of Atari homebrews for sale. Also want to point out that BBCQ runs at 60FPS.

Impressive homebrew games on the Atari 7800

So the Atari 7800 is a console that I never really thought about, at least not nearly as much as the NES, or the Master System. But I saw some homebrew games made for it, and they peaked my interest in the console. If you look at most of the original games made for the 7800, they look...

Best windows OS?

Reference Linux

This is how I thought of linux way before I started using it, that there was some "base reference" version of Linux that all other version derived from. But thats not true. If you have to find the purest form of Linux, that would probably be Slackware, as it was originally created by Linus...

People have to get rid of XP, vendors are dropping support of it left and right anyway.
