No!!!!!! ;-)


I admit it'd be a cool challenge from a programmers sight to do it on the VCS, but the Battleship gameplay is sooooo dead boring... :-)

Though at the same time, if someone rigged a controller port for output (sorta like Zero Tolerence for the Genesis http://www.shinforce.com/genesis/reviews/ZeroTolerance.htm), which I think I've heard is theorhetically possible on the list, Battleship might be a really good test case. Two tubes, two 2600s, and one screen per setup.


At the very least it'd be an impressive first.
