I'm thinking of him like a superstar like Michael Jackson, whom you would hardly be able to manage to ask anything :-) Since PCAE 2.0 supports Pitfall II, someone must already have figured out how that chip works. Maybe looking into its source code would solve the puzzle? I've got the Pitfall II cart myself, and personally I think it's not much above a normal 2600 game without chip. I wonder what it is (except, of course, for the music) that couldn't have been done without the chip. Alas, I can't replay it now, because the cart is broken. Does anybody know if a Pitfall II cart can break simply by ageing - since its circuitry is somewhat more complicated than a normal ROM cart?
