Javatari Atari 2600 Emulator

Showcase
#1

Hey guys.
Just to share an Atari 2600 Emulator I made in pure Java (no libs used).
Go to javatari.org to dowload it or play online. You will need ROMs to be able to play.

Very well done ;D! I am a big fan of emulators. It’s a lot better than spending money on an original atari console!

Looks great.

But I can’t find any great Atari title beside pitfall and pong.

#4

Very nice. You could always make your own 2600 games now.

there you go :slight_smile:

#6

haha, it’s wonderful - a bit buggy or maybe it’s just the games :smiley:

#7

Can you please tell me what went wrong, and the ROM that was being played?

Thanks,
Paulo

Thanks! there are huge number of titles there.

“Race” doesn’t seem to work at all (it doesn’t start) and when music plays in the games it sounds laggy (try James bond 007), but that could just be the atari :d

Most of the games I tried seem to work fine though.

#10

I see… Sometimes there is a problem with the ROM format autodetection. You can always set or try the various ROM formats in the Settings Dialog and see if some one works.

“Race” is particularly an ultra-rare ROM. One of a handful of games that use the “Drinving Controller”, a special device which is not supported by the emulator yet.

I think it should be called Javari instead, much more catchy and contains the same amount of syllables as “Atari”.

#12

I agree. It just sounds better. But then, that would be the same as advertising, hyping, and publishing a game, only to change the name at the last second. Oh, wait… :stuck_out_tongue:

Moderators, can I get moved to the “Featured Games” list?
Look, I got a medal (I don’t actually know how difficult this is) :slight_smile:

Thanks,
Peccin

Moderators,

How can I see the answer to my request above?

To get into featured games, a moderator has to evaluate it. More detail: http://www.java-gaming.org/topics/the-featured-games-section/20884/view.html

I haven’t seen any game get featured this lately. I wonder where Kappa goes… (and when my game get rated too)

#17

It’s not only Kappa, all Dukes can feature games, I think.
