Thank you, I'll give this a shot! I've tried the one you suggested in the past and unfortunately it didn't help much, but I've seen it recommended often enough that I believe it's legit. Some of the others in this video are new to me and I'll definitely be trying them out.
It goes up and down (louder and quieter?) for me, and it's especially strong lately so I'm a little extra salty about it right now. ๐ซ
This is obviously anecdotal, but fuck Wellbutrin. It didn't help, and it triggered tinnitus, which didn't go away after I stopped taking it. Still happening 2 years later. I'm one of the lucky 3-6% Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I agree, this is a fun little game. There definitely were plenty of terrible 2600 games that were part of problem at the time (I'm looking at you Frogs and Flies) but some of the "shovelware" is fun.
And, there actually is a version of Kool-Aid man for the Intellivision! It's a completely different game though and not as much fun IMO.
Interesting! I've never heard of that before, and I love this sort of thing. Do you have any more info about it, or maybe an Atariage thread with more details?
I did a quick search and found a couple references to a problem with it on the 2600 Jr when the difficulty switch is set to A. Is that it?
By a cyborg that looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger because your unborn child is destined to save humanity from Skynet?
This is the meanest thing anyone has ever done to me on the internet, and I was on terminal emulator Usenet. <... Cause that's where the party's at and...> Here's some Lemmy gold plated latinum ๐ช
Yes! And I updated the BASIC code to add cheats. I thought I was quite the leet haxor. ๐ Edit: I accidentally a letter.
You better Belize it!
This was beautiful, thank you for sharing it. I did not have "Feeling less alone because an internet stranger shared a Henry Rollins quote on Lemmy" on my agenda this evening, but here we are.
This is really interesting, thanks for the details. I fiddle around with 6510 assembly sometimes, and didn't realize that the 6507 and other chips that the 2600 uses required those tricks for the player objects. The things that developers manage to make the 2600 do with such limited hardware blows my mind.
I have a couple different 2600 versions, a Jr, a colecovision Atari adapter and maybe a couple other variants in the closet that I'll try to dig out this weekend and see how it handles this game! Unfortunately I don't have a 7800, despite that being the console I had as a kid. I should add that to the wish list.
