I don't think your gonna find a rom set of that, there is software written for the Atari  8-bit every year (yes still to this day!).  smile.gif

Bruce Lee freaking ROCKS, you'll prolly need a cracked copy to get it to work with this emu, but once you find the right copy, you'll be well pleased! The game is just as much fun as it was to play (and beat)  back in 7th grade math class in 1989. I was the 1st in my class to beat it actually, no cheats at that.  smile.gif

Don't forget Bros. the Super Mario clone with bad controls written in none other than Turbo Basic!

Actually I have a copy of Bruce Lee that does run on Frodo-X

Mind you I didnt play the entire game through (even though it takes like maybe 15 mins smile.gif ),  but it seemed to work fine.  Dont remember where i got that particular version of the ROM from.

The Bruce Lee on SNES is not the same game we are refering to. This one is MUCH older, and the graphics even more generic. It has two enemies, the skinny ninja, and the fat green guy. You ran across rooms collecting hanging lanterns, which would then open up secret passages to acess other rooms. Later on the rooms would have conveyor belts which went both vertically and horizontally, along with a variety of booby traps.
In my opinion, despite its age and old school control system, I still feel that this is the ONLY good Bruce Lee video game ever created, the rest of them still have not mastered there Chi. smile.gif

The "fat green guy" is the Green Yamo.

I liked crouching down and letting the ninja and Green Yamo beat on each other accidentally.

You have to be kidding me.... Bruce Lee for the ol' C64 woops the crap out of the B-rated game you're reffering to.
How many people post in the Shaq-Fu topic? You and a couple of your buddies or something? It got a helluva lot less than rave reviews, and they were all deserved....

The green dude rocked...... Yamo..... hehhee

I remember playing that game after school with my friend.... we'd then follow it up with Save NY and see how fast we could take down all the buildings.... and then finish the day with M.U.L.E.

For pc users
you could probably get this working in wine on gentoo

I first played the speccy version remember you got 99 lives if you collected the Yin & yang symbols until your lives were into double digits. Not sure if this was a bug specific to the speccy version. Later played the C64 version which didn't seem to have this bug.

Not as good as bak2skool.

Also some of my other favorites were Blue Max, Elite, and Lazy Jones.  It's a shame Elite will not likely be played on xbox...unless if you have a keyboard.  On second thought, I'm not sure I'd have the patience for it anyways.  jester.gif

Okay, have to join in on this one.  I love Jumpman, Archon, Spelunker, Mountain King, M.U.L.E., and Ballblazer too.  

I've been enjoying the atarixlbox immensely.  Having said that (I'm not crabbing, just noticing that) I think the sound on the emu might be an octave too high.  

Kudos to an excellent port.  If I ever win the lottery, I'll fund xport to do emulation full time!

biggrin.gif

Excellent taste there, I thought I was the only Jumpman and Spelunker fan :-)

One of my first reviews for Atari User was MULE :-)

As for the Octave high, its not set to NTSC and New Pokey by anychance, the sound will be nothing like you remember if so. What I love about the port apart from the quality is that it supports zips which none of the others do as yet, so my TOSEC collection streams straight off the PC very nicely indeed with having to unzip 'em.

Oh, dunno if people notice that Bruce Lee (back on topic) was quite clever, if you used the slightly naughty option of setting up a 2 player game to make the game easier if you were playing it actually one player (try it, you'll see what I mean) then if you didn't move joystick 2 after a little while the computer took over control and reverted it back to a one player game :-)
