well, maybe it didnt come out clear enough, since most people here dont seem to have any experience with the console:
the game should be VERY simple.
the atari cartridges had 8kb max. so the games very pretty limited, donkey kong for example pushed the hardware almost to the max. and look at it:
the games really dont have to have much more than eg 3 levels or 3 rooms. its just a short game that could be completely played in a few minutes maybe.
i for example will try to remake the nes legend of zelda and only will make a minimal overworld, 1 dungeon and 2 caves(houses). and that is pretty much already.
it really could be just a variant of pong or tetris (though tetris is tough to pull off programming wise :P).
so please: take one or two hours, make a small game and post it here. maybe even throw in a little love.
