[edit] Ball
"A 'ball' - a line that is the same color as the playfield. It can be one, two, four, or eight pixels wide."
If the ball is the same color as the playfield, then how can the ball be seen? Isn't this an error? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.242.117.28 (talk) 2007-08-27T05:11:57
- I'm no expert, but I'd guess that the "ball" exists for the purpose of hardware detection of collisions, even though it is not rendered. --Bisqwit (talk) 11:44, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] PAL and NTSC palettes
I wonder about the factuality about the NTSC and PAL palettes shown on this page. When I was a child, I played Missile Command on the Atari 2600, with a PAL system (seeing as I live in Finland which uses PAL), and I distinctly remember that it used the yellow color (#FFFF00): It is this game from where I learned how the TV screen composes the yellow color. Yet, the PAL palette shown on this page shows that the yellow color is impossible in PAL. Where does the error come from? --Bisqwit (talk) 11:38, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
