En 2009 se liberó el codigo fuente de varios juegos de esta consola de Atari, mucho de ellos juegos conocidos (15 en total)
Les dejo el articulo (en ingles):
Remember the
Dig Dug or
Centipede or
Robotron? They used to be favorites whe
n Atari’s 7800 series was still around. Now since the era of those consoles is over and a different world of interactive reality gaming has taken over, Atari Museum, a site run by Atari enthusiast, has got hold of
has unofficially source code of over 15 games for the coders and enthusiasts to admire the state-of-the-art (because this is what it was back then) of game
development. During those times nobody would have imagined in their wildest dreams the games that Atari’s
developers floated into the gaming thirsty market and instantly swept across continental boundaries. But things changed soon after that and a company once regarded as one of the most successful gaming console manufacturers and developers faded away in the pages of our technology’s hall-of-fame.In an official release, Atari has quoted that the purpose of the release is to give potential developers insight into the Atari’s gaming platform so they may possibly build upon the 7800 series.I have collected of the game’s banners:
