@[email protected] I already have a Uno Cart for the 2600 and I don’t think I will buy another flash cart just for some additional games. The 2600 is one of around 40 old systems I own and there are others I’m definitely more inclined to buy add-ons for. Money isn’t infinite you know… 😉

@[email protected] yes I know. I’ve played Draconian on emulation. But that’s not the same as real hardware.

@[email protected] finally watched the video yesterday.
First thought: That’s some impressive games for a 2600.
Then I looked up if those games were available as digital download and found out that most of them require a Harmony Card. That was a no for me then. And I was a lot less impressed…
Not only is this limiting the user to buy either a real cartridge version or an expensive flash media from overseas. It also feels like cheating to me to rely on modern hardware add-ons to even run the software.

@[email protected] first games were ‘Pssst!’ and ‘3D Combat Zone’ for the ZX Spectrum. The choice in our local computer shop in a small town in northern Germany was not big. I think they had maybe 5 games for the Speccy and 10 games for the C64. So it was pure luck that ‘Pssst’ was well made and actually fun. ‘3D Combat Zone’ was a Battlezone clone, but I had never heard of that before. I wanted it because it had 3D in it’s name. Was not that bad but a bit slow compared to the original.
