    Yes, but you can use smaller discs for those, since they're smaller games.

    I think your user name describes your eventual path here. Although they are long "dead" systems, it's bad form to come into a collector's forum and boast how you're making duplicates of games and asking how to make more.

    Yeah but then you'd have to hunt down the CD add-ons for those consoles. The 2600 one is especially hard to find. I can hook you up with one of mine if you're interested. You'll have to pay before I ship and you'll have to give me a couple days to set up a fake Paypal account so you wont be able to track me down after I rip you off. PM me if you're interested.

    You can burn any games, just get some gas and some matches hehe. When it comes to games that uses ROMs (as in not disc based) its called flashing, not burning. You need flashcards or emulators for those.

    I agree with InsaneDavid. Altho the systems you mention are out of production a long time ago, i dont think this is the right forum to ask.

    You can, sure, but what are you going to do with them when they're on the disc? I fear what the answer may be...

    You're kidding me, right? You want to burn 2600 games and play them on something other than the Atari 2600? Why? And what's the fun in that? You may as well buy an arcade classics collection for (insert system here).

    Seriously, though. Don't post about burning rom images of games in this forum. I'm sure there are members that are fine with this, but it will easily get you banned, as the terms that you agreed to state.

    Original games + original hardware = gaming nirvana.

    You can't play a 2600 and "get" the experience without popping the cart into an actual machine. Or NES. Or SMS. Or any other system.

    Plus, asking collectors about roms for games we collect is pretty rude. Think about it.

    Don't come here asking these guys about burning anything, do as they do, collect the real things (thanks to this forum even I have started collecting games slowly). Get a job and spend, spend, spend on whatever system tickles your fancy.


    Plus if you don't know how to copy roms to a CD, why bother romming.

    Couldn't have said it better myself.

    And please don't burn Dark Wizard. That game is way too good to even think about setting the disc on fire.

    My first PC games and favorite game of all-time.

    On a more serious note, $1.50 for 5 discs seems pretty steep to me...

    The problem i've always had with burning games is what to do with the gooey stuff leftover from the plastic...

    Why do you want to scam this guy over a Starpath Supercharger?

    Yeah don't burn games on disc..Buy the original games themselves. Thats what i have always done. Sure i may download an emulator to check out a game. But i end up buying the games i like.

    I Can't figure out how to burn games on disc anyway...So i stick to owning the games and system. Alot of fun collecting the games that way.

    Classic gaming at its best....check out my collection.
