I've converted Summer Games, a two disk game to run on the 8mbit flash cartridge.

The cartridge features:

No disk flipping, seamless game play.
Faster loading than disks.
High scores are automatically saved and restored from the internal flash memory!

The cartridge requires:

64k or better XL/XE series computer. (800XL, 130XE, etc)
One 8mbit flash cartridge.

I believe this is the first game for the Atari that uses flash memory to save and restore game data.

Your high scores should be saved for at least 30 years with no loss of data. :)

If you already have a 8mbit flash cartridge you can download the image free and program your own cartridge.

New 8mbit flash cartridges are also available with a special Summer Games label as shown in the picture below. The ordering URL is:

http://www.atarimax.com/flashcart/

Just put in the order comments that you want a Summer Games label cart instead of the standard 8mbit flash cartridge label.

Enjoy!

Steve

This won't flash on the new 8MBit carts I just bought. It does flash on the older carts. Is there someway of getting it to work with the new carts?

Nevermind, figured out that I needed to update it from Maxflash Cartridge Studio!
