Rev Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) http://www.atarimax.com/flashcart/documentation/ Scroll down toward the bottom of the page and you will see the intv adapter for it. I ordered one. Now if I can figure out what it does! Maybe I can somehow use it to put Roms onto new pcbs and release some games. Anyone else ever see this or have it?

OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 The Atarimax Maxflash Flash Cartridge System for Atari 8-bit Computers is a high quality, professionally produced cartridge creation suite for the Atari 400/800/XL/XE series computers. Are you delusional or hoping to use it for a different purpose than what it was created for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 Yeah! You have to scroll down a little on the page to see the intellivision adapter! I'm not going crazy. Groovybee, what exactly can we do with this thing? It looks like it may be a nice alternative to the cc3. but can we also dump Roms or load Roms on to blank pcbs?

I was searching for stuff last night and found it. Never heard of it before. So I ordered one. I'll give it a try. Better get one before they sell out!

voltron Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 i ordered one when intellivsiondude posted it, but its still in the package. I got it just in case i figured out its use one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Looks like it just allows you to use the USB programmer to dump an Inty cart, just like in can do for A8 carts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intvnut Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Yeah, a dumper will help you get ROM images, but it won't let you make cartridges for the Intellivision. And, I'd be a little surprised if it correctly dumps some of our recent releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intvnut Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 BTW, we still don't know if the "updated" Lock 'n' Chase is out in the wild, so if one or more of you get one of these dumping adaptors, be sure to dump all your Lock'n'Chases.

+JasonlikesINTV Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I saw that a couple of weeks ago. Even after you spend the $15 plus the $60 it's still cheap if it works well. Someone needs to try it out and spell out exactly what it does :-) Maybe a video of it in action? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games For Your Intellivision Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 The world's first Intellivision cartridge dumper was made from one of my Intellivision 1's and 2's......I don't think it works anymore....and I think it added a byte to the end of each file....... Isn't everything pretty much dumped? And, as you said, it would be surprising if this dumper could dump D2K Arcade for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Tucker is classics http://www.atariage.com/forums/user/934-classics/ here on AtariAge. You might want to send him a PM with a link to this thread. I am sure he would be happy to join in and explain and answer question about this product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 This dumper also acts as a multicart correct guys? It's an adapter for the USB programmer to dump Inty carts, not to program the maxflash carts for the Inty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intvnut Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 This dumper also acts as a multicart correct guys? Well, it'll program up MaxFlash Atari cartridges. Nowhere do I see that it programs up cartridges that will work on the Intellivision, only that it will dump them. They use rather different bus protocols. It's a much lower bar to dump a cartridge than to emulate one, so it's not too surprising that they can dump Intellivision cartridges. They'd need a different MaxFlash cartridge design to emulate Intellivision cartridges though. And yes intvnut you should make a cc3 replacement! Maybe some day. I still need to get all these Christmas Carol and Space Patrol orders shipped, and get another order into the board shop for game boards. These things take time! :-) BTW, I've had to close the ordering link for Space Patrol. I have maybe a dozen left, but I'm not 100% sure. Once I'm certain I have a few left to sell, I may reopen the link. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intvnut Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Updated Lock 'n Chase? The one with the Data East copywrite on startup and the "drop dead stop" lupin (that I 100% TOTALLY EPICALLY dispise? Is that the LNC you haven't had confirmed in the wild? Yeah, the one where Lupin's hat drops over him when he dies. So why exactly do you despise that animation? To be clear, I've found two variants in the wild: One which responds as a 6K x 10 ROM and one that responds as an 8K x 10 ROM. Both are identical in the first 6K. The one that responds as an 8K ROM just has zeros for the last 2K. I have not found the true 8K version with the Data East copyright screen in the wild.
