Super Mario 64 2600 v25 (A2600 Game)

atari2600land picks up a new topic for a new Atari VCS game. Just in case you’ve ever had a dream to play Super Mario 64, this might get reality now with Super Mario 64 2600. Certainly in a slight modified version to match the capabilities of the target platform. Kindly note that this game is heavily in development.

Changes:

Just a quick update. Version 25 has a little tune play once you grab the star. I also discovered that you can move after grabbing the star. You can still move, but the wall has been removed from the level 1 painting room in the castle once the game takes you back there.

Super Mario 64 2600 v24 (A2600 Game)

atari2600land picks up a new topic for a new Atari VCS game. Just in case you’ve ever had a dream to play Super Mario 64, this might get reality now with Super Mario 64 2600. Certainly in a slight modified version to match the capabilities of the target platform. Kindly note that this game is heavily in development.

Changes:

Well, I worked on this again while hearing the loud booms of fireworks. You must pick up the Bob-Omb, which is very much now active, and throw it to get the star. Not pressing fire and touching the Bob-Omb transports you to the beginning of the level. But you still can’t go into any of the doors except the first one.
