  • I made my own game for the Atari 2600 and now I'm going to write an EPROM and put it on a cartridge board.

    So that is how it works. Cool! Never thought about that.

    Without being able to get prefab EPROM PCBs readily anymore, it might be a good idea to show how to hack together one from an existing mask ROM PCB.

    You need to add info in the description.
    What burner and software do you use?
    Where to get prototype boards and various capacity EEPROMs?
    And the eraser.
    If you assemble the prototype boards, how do you program the bankswitching chip?
    Most EEPROMs require a logic inverter on the chip select line, so I imagine the bank switching chip (the skinny one on the other side) can do that, too.

    Cool video. wanted to program chips like these for years. For 1050 disk drive, and Falcon...etc
    Great video. EeeKitty. - off to get a burner. - Nice to see some assembly

      @jaredgraywest  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lins Leal Thanks! I bought the PCB from Atariage.com. I bought it several years ago, and I don't see it in the store anymore, so I guess they no longer carry them. I think some forum posters there may be selling some, though.

      Haha, you are welcome!
      I am also into writing homebrew 2600 games (I am currently writing my first one), and even though I own a Harmony cart, I want to be able to burn EPROMs, for some reason. Call it a hobby.
      How exactly are you connecting the burner to your PC? I see you are using a parallel port, but most (ahem, _all_) computers these days come with no parallel port. Do you have a PCI card with a parallel output port? I would like to get a burner, but I want to make sure I know what I am doing _before_ I order everything.

    • @jaredgraywest
      @jaredgraywest  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      My burner is pretty old - it has a parallel interface, so that's what I use. Nowadays, you can get an inexpensive burner with a USB interface. Something like this would work, for example: www.mcumall.com/comersus/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4282 Good luck!

      Not usually - I've made a few one-off carts for people before. My game "Spies In The Night" for the 2600 is being released soon by NEO Games and then may be in the AtariAge store.

    Was the game written in 6502 assembly?

      It was mostly written in Batari Basic, but I wrote some of my own assembly routines.
