    Smile What 9 games in your Atari STARPLEX Game-SeleX

    Just picked up the STARPLEX Game-SeleX for Atari 2600. Frickin awsome! I was just tring to decide what 9 games to put in it and thought hey why don't I ask everyone on DP. I have in it:
    The Empire Strikes Back
    Cosmic Ark
    Frankenstein's Monster
    Jr. Pac-Man
    The Smurfs (I can't jump the first fence?)
    Moon Patrol
    Gorf
    Entombed
    Kool-Aid Man

    What do you thing I should add or subtract. I would like to add HERO but I don't own it.

    If I had one of those things, here's what I'd have in it (note that I'd be limited to what I have in my small 2600 collection):

    Video Pinball
    Kaboom!
    Missile Command
    Space Invaders
    Mario Bros.
    G.I. Joe Cobra Strike
    Chopper Command
    Circus Atari
    Joust

    (If you have Pitfall!, why is it not in there?)

    My answer is "nine more game selectors for 81 total games!"

    As far as getting it down to 9 games however, I'll do my best, in no particular order:

    Kaboom!
    Dragster
    Frostbite
    Lead (homebrew)
    Warlords (or Medieval Mayhem (homebrew))
    Pitfall! (or Pitfall 2)
    Pressure Cooker
    Seaquest
    Crystal Castles

    That was difficult. I left off a lot of games I love for games I would like to practice and get better at. Pressure Cooker, Seaquest, Crystal Castles, Piftall.

    Well, I don't have that unit, I have the Romscanner. It holds 10 cartridges but I haven't looked at what I have in there for so long. I'll have to check it out and maybe revise the group to post here later.

    I've got a six-slot game changer called something like a Game Brain, if I recall... anyway, I never use it. I really enjoy the feel and sound of popping a game cartridge into an Atari console. There's a nice visceral feel to inserting and removing carts from an old fashioned game console you can't replicate with a modern machine.

    Hope your state has a good landfill for your design of the Starplex.
