Comment 1: The Supercharger is a very cool device that was made for the Atari 2600 in the early 80's. It gave the Atari 2600 the ability to use 6k games and the added ability to use all of that 6k as RAM -- previously the 2600 was limited to using a maximum of about 128 bytes of RAM. It also allowed the manufacturer to distribute the games on cassette, a much cheaper way of producing games. You can learn more about the Supercharger by reading the Supercharger FAQ located on Glenn Saunder's homepage. With the programs presented on this page, the Supercharger can be used as a very inexpensive development system for the Atari 2600. The Dasm Assembler can be used to compile source code for the 2600. Once you have compiled a game, you can load it into a real Atari and Supercharger using Makewav or WPlayBin. Turnaround time is reduced from 20 minutes using EPROMS to about 30 seconds!!! Not only can you develop new software for the Supercharger, but you can also load some of your favorites like Pacman and Combat! Unfortunately, some of the original Atari games don't load correctly into a Supercharger, but if you make a slight hardware modification you can load most games that fit in the Supercharger's RAM. If you have poor hand-eye coordination like me, you can use Cheetah to "cheat" on the games by giving yourself unlimited lives or start at any level!
