depends on how good the game is. Also, you might want to consider going to Atari Age. They have a forum just for 2600 programming

Well the homebrew games Atari Age sells are like $40 dollars, $15 is very reasonable compared to that.

keep in mind that those games are good enough that they could even be actual commercial games.

Edit: I forgot to mention that you could join just for the forum, you wouldn't need to sell what you have to AtariAge. Also, you should make a label contest like many game releases have :D

I have a good label and the story line is awesome. I think the game will be as good as ET. ET was a very fiun game. Once you get to know how to play it

I heard E.T. wasnt that good. But then again I've only played two games for the Atari in my life.

I own ET, and it is by NO MEANS good....

Try comparing it to Pitfall if you want to impress people.

ET disappointed so many people, and there were so many unsold carts, that seveal million, I believe, were crushed and buried in the desert of the American Southwest.
Warranty-Voiding fun!
