Robotron 2084 - Atari ST [039] Short PlayThru



This will make the third arcade port post in a row! Here is Williams Robotron 2084, originally released in the arcades in 1982, and published by Atari for the ST in 1987.



This will make the third arcade port post in a row! Here is Williams Robotron 2084, originally released in the arcades in 1982, and published by Atari for the ST in 1987.

Except for not being able to use two joysticks, this port seems quite close to the arcade original.  The sound effects are here, and the graphics look good to me.  This is another game I was not very good at, as can be seen in the capture.

I would say this is another early gem for the ST, if one is feeling nostalgic for early arcade games!

Capture info -

Game was played on an Atari 1040 STf, TOS 1.4, 1MB, equipped with a CosmosEX from Jookie.
A Best Electronics ST Monitor to VGA cable was used, connected to an OSSC 1.6 (processing the video in Line4x mode), with the output being captured by a Startech USB3HDCAP.
