Switchboard Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Hi everyone, I am following in PepperChef's footsteps and introducing myself to the fourm. I also found out about the place from the podcast and look forward to it every month. I am a Canadian and Inty owner from way back in 80. Much to my wife's shagrin, i have pulled out the old wood grain console and got it up and running. I still have almost all of my old games and will be cataloging them this weekend. My Dad's basement was damp so my boxes are musty, but that wont stop me:) I believe my rarest title is commando. I also have an original ecs and music keyboard with their original boxes. I recently built an arcade cab ( yes out of a telephone switchboard) and have been listening to which inty titles Paul from the podcast endorses as translating well to the cabinet experience. I was wondering if anyone else here has put intellivision on an arcade cabinet and would like to discuss their experiences. I am loving the boards so far and hope to be an active member, especially once I finally get an LTO flash cart to play melody blaster. Thats right, i had the keyboard but never the only cart that went with it. Take care guys 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Welcome! It's nice to see so many listeners from the podcast joining AtariAge. Speaking of which, I need to catch up. I'm still midway through the Beauty & the Beast episode. Once you get your games/hardware cataloged, we'd love to hear/see the results...especially if you find a copy of Spiker that you forgot you had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Rick Reynolds Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Welcome! If you have any specific Intellivision-on-arcade-cab related questions, feel free to post them here. I'm definitely interested in what kinds of concerns would be good to talk about on the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+grips03 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) you could make two of these, so you can use standard arcade joysticks and buttons with Intv http://web.archive.org/web/20060317145051/http://users.erols.com/tiltonj/games/tech/intvsticky.html Edited August 24, 2014 by grips03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy62 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Welcome to our world of playing and collecting for the great Intellivision! I live close enough to Paul that I have no excuse not to get my ass kicked at Hockey again, and of course the other games he is better than me at! Enjoy this Forum! Wolfy.
