dbpedia-owl:abstract
  • Starpath war der Name eines US-amerikanischen Computerunternehmens, das ursprünglich 1981 von Alan Bayley, Robert Brown und Craig Nelson unter dem Namen Arcadia Corporation gegründet wurde. Kurz nach der Gründung musste das Unternehmen jedoch aus lizenzrechtlichen Gründen seinen Namen in Starpath ändern. Starpath war bekannt für die Entwicklung und Vermarktung des Starpath Supercharger im Jahre 1982. Dies war eine Erweiterung des Atari-2600-Videospiel-Systems. Der Supercharger, der als Steckmodul in den Atari 2600 gesteckt wurde, erweiterte den Speicher, so dass komplexere Spiele mit umfangreicheren Grafiken auf der Spielkonsole gespielt werden konnten. Die entsprechenden Spiele wurden ebenfalls von Starpath entwickelt. Diese Erweiterung konnte sich bei den Kunden jedoch nicht ausreichend durchsetzen, so dass der Supercharger nicht weiterentwickelt wurde und Starpath sich 1983 mit der Firma Epyx zusammenschloss.

The company was founded in 1981 under the name Arcadia Corporation, but it changed its name to Starpath shortly after for trademark reasons. It was founded by Alan Bayley, Robert Brown, and Craig Nelson. The Starpath Supercharger was an add-on for the Atari 2600 video game console that expanded the machine capabilities by adding more RAM, allowing for higher resolution graphics and larger games, and by providing a connector to which a regular cassette player could be connected, thus permitting larger games, stored on tape, to be loaded. The Supercharger was connected to the Atari's cartridge slot. Starpath merged with Epyx in 1983. Rights to Starpath games are currently owned by Bridgestone Multimedia, a religious multimedia company.

La società fu fondata nel 1981 con il nome Arcadia Corporation, ma cambiò il suo nome dopo poco in Starpath per problemi di marchi registrati. Lo Starpath Supercharger era un add-on per la console Atari 2600 che espandeva le capacità della macchina con RAM aggiuntiva, permettendo una risoluzione grafica più alta e giochi più grandi e fornendo un connettore a cui era possibile connettere un normale lettore di musicassette. Questo permetteva di caricare giochi più grandi, memorizzati su nastro. Il Supercharger era connesso allo slot per le caruccie dell'Atari. Starpath si fuse con Epyx nel 1983.
