Download Bally Arcade / Astrocade tape programs that will load using various methods.

If you need some help getting started with loading some of these programs, then watch a couple of the Astrocade programming videos, some of which explain how to load "AstroBASIC" and MLM (Machine Language Manager) programs from archived tapes (WAV files). Probably the most helpful one for beginners is called "Bally BASIC and 'AstroBASIC:' Overview with Review and How to Use the BASIC Cartridge." This one steps users through how to load an "AstroBASIC" program on real hardware. You can also learn how to use the Astrocade emulator included in MAME to load some programs from tape.

Tape Archive Tools Several programs used to archive Bally Arcade tapes and a program to convert binary files (i.e. cartridges) for use on Astrocade consoles with expanded memory.
300 Baud Programs Bally Arcade tapes that require the original Bally BASIC and the 300 Baud Interface to load. These programs will NOT load with AstroBASIC (the BASIC cartridge with the built-in tape interface).
2000 Baud Programs Bally Arcade tapes that require AstroBASIC (the BASIC cartridge with the built-in tape interface).
Color BASIC Programs Bally Arcade tapes that require the fixed prototype Color BASIC cartridge.
