Old school Atari to pc?

Executioner · 10-September-08, 04:42 PM

Somebody HAS to have developed a way to play 2600 and the like game cartridges on a pc or atleast dump the program onto the HD.

(I'm hoping)

Whear can I find what I need to run these games? I got almost 100 of them but the console is messed up.

Any ideas??

You need an emulator to be able to play the games on your PC. The software will emulate the game as being played on the original machine.

Here's a link....
Stella: "A multi-platform Atari 2600 VCS emulator"

As for finding the game roms, I'll leave that up to you for now.

I hope this helps.....
