G'Day Guy's,

I have looked over 30 pages of this forum also on the FOTS and no signs of any of the the games that will run on the Pico2 so here is a thought lets use this thread to list games

So if any member want to find a game it will be here.

Regards Bryan

Hi Bryan,

A starting point could be here:

PicoMite VGA games

On page 3 of that thread, there is also a link to my local archive that has many games adapted for PicoMite 6.00.01. Most of these would also run on 6.00.03 or 6.01.00, and on a RP2350 and maybe even on HDMI when it is set to a resolution suitable. This is something I cannot test, since I do not have a working HDMI setup that can use all resolutions.

I plan to update my locale archive to 6.01.00 once 6.01.00 is released (not on beta or rc). I will mention that in the VGA games thread.

Thanks for that Harm

I did get asked about that package today that I got on Tuesday and when I said I was happy as a pig in dung they laughed. I told them I finally got MP3's going and my intent was getting a shuffle mode going where it already builtin into the code

Now as I still had the Pico2 going when I came down from my shed I did try both the side winder and the attack3 joy sticks in the USB port and nothing happened so a USB sniffer program may be needed so the controls can be mapped so the old joysticks can be used.

When I mentioned to a girl at the shop it cost about $100 to get 5 of them and I can get the STL file to make the 3D case she was impressed so may get a chance to introduce some locals into the fold. So the kids of today in my area can play and learn.

This is why I started this thread so if one wants to play a game all the info is here and if the thread does off it can go into the the top forum links or be a sticky thread that this forum currently doesn't support.

Regards Bryan
