First Spear Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Wow, if the Amiga kids can make one of these, surely Intellivision Prods can make one for our market... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 A Raspberry Pi-esque with a miniature LCD and casing? Cute, but what about the controllers, you would need USB versions of those plus that the display seems more like a gimmick than practical. I think you can load an Intellivision emulator on various handhelds as well if you want to play it on the go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Lathe26 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 If you want to go really tiny and non-functional, there is a Lego option and a 3D printed option... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Super adorable! I see how they did it https://thecakeisaliegaming.wordpress.com/2018/04/05/tasty-amiga-pi-a-quick-overview-to-building-a-mini-amiga/ and where the case came from https://retropicases.com/collections/all not cheap, but cute cute cute!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First Spear Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 Exactly, it's about the cute form factor. Controllers would go to an external USB or Bluetooth device, so the "console" itself could stay small. The external stuff could remain off-camera. Super adorable!

CharonPDX Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I'm going to try to get the EmulationStation running on my Raspberry-Pi-like single board computer "CHIP". It's tiny, and would fit in a case not much larger than that LEGO one. Although the USB-to-Inty controller adapter would have to be external. Or hack some Inty controllers to have the adapter internal so it's "native USB". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any word on how many they sold? I heard many of their pre-orders were never shipped. It's my understanding that the CHIP has Debian running on it, and jzintv has a Linux release so you don't necessarily need to use EmulationStation unless you want, or need, the front-end. In regards to a USB-to-Inty adapter, there are a few on the market. They are all too big to make it internal to the controller, but the smallest one that I could find is what I used on my Ultimate Intellivision Controller it is the Raphnet Intelli-USB adapter board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMBerzerk Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I just bought this case... http://retroflag.com/MEGAPi-CASE-M.html I wish these guys would make A2600 and Inty versions as well. The quality is superb and the price is great. For what you pay, you get a very well designed and high quality replica that doesn't look 3d printed, or cheap. I have the NESpi case as well, which I think is sub-par compared to the Sega Megapi case. You can even modify the case to run dual fans, which is a great option.
