      I have the 5200 rom version of bounty bob and have never been able to make it work on emulators. I recently tried the libretro atari 800 core, and have tried older atari 800 emulators with same result. Colorful atari splash screen with a bunch of ??? and game never starts.

      I'm just wondering if it works for anyone ... I can't seem to find anything on this either way.

      If it does work can someone point me to the magic answer that gets it running?

      Thanks

        I didn't think it was a working cart for (i think it was because of a rare bank switching method to allow for 40kb).

        I at least did not get it working neither on atari800 nor on kat5200, so in the end i resorted to the atari800 rom instead and have bob merrily jump around.

          I'm trying to get Bounty Bob to work. I've found one Atari 5200 version that will load, but I can't get any controls to work to make it start.
          As for the Atari 800 roms I found 2 different versions, one that has no sound, and one that has sound.

          Did you ever get an Atari 5200 rom to work?
          Can you tell me the m5d checksum hash of the atari 800 version that works for you?
