2011-2021. Several others have been around much longer. Thanks to everyone for pioneering the Intellivision homebrew scene and keeping our favorite system going. Thanks to Left Turn, Intelligentvision, Elektronite, and anyone else involved for getting the scene going strong. Originally it was Intv Revolution in 2011/12, but that website is long gone, dont think its on the Wayback machine. Look forward to sharing a newly redesigned look for the future, while hinting to the past. Thanks to all.

Hi there folks, the game has been submitted to ABBUC contest as Kowalsky's Fury 2, here's a short introduction:

This Garfield strip is one of the most memorable for me to this day. He educates himself on what the ingredients are in his cat food. It also made me become health conscious for my cats and myself on what we consume. No wonder he'd rather eat human meals instead.

The screen flashing has been changed in the firmware in development. This firmware is not ready for the public yet. However, if the flashing bothers people that much, I went ahead yanked the new splash screen out of the WIP version and put it into the May 26 version. There are no other changes to this version today vs. the one posted on May 26: Only the flashing screen is changed. hbios_concerto_0.95noflash.bin Since this changes the bootloader, you need to load the new firmware with a USB cable. Here are instructions if you need them. NOTE: After the firmware update is complete, do a power cycle on the console to use the new firmware. Although the screen says to press the joystick button when complete, that doesn't work at the moment, but a power cycle does work.

No, sorry, it won't run on an emulator. I would absolutely love to release ROMs that will work on emulators, but every time I do such things unscrupilous 'people' start making carts and selling them on ebay/etsy/etc. If someone were to 'buy' a copy of the demo at the rates these 'people' charge then they might not feel inclined to 'spend more' for the full version. It's a shame such a small, tight knit community has to get damaged by their actions.

Do you think WATA Games would grade my emulation collection?

Watched "War Games" last night for the first time. What an absolute gem!

Here's our entry

I’ve been binging The Simpsons, which I haven’t watched since “Who Shot Mr. Burns.” It’s been interesting seeing the flashbacks to young Homer and Marge move from the 70’s to the 80’s to the 90’s. I’ve also made the realization that when the show started I was a few years older than Bart. Now I’m a few years older than Homer.

Smallest PCB I've ever designed.. less than 1cm, a flexible cable connector.. with one that is fitted into the motherboard and one that is inside the LCD display enclosure. I am using a 4-connector flex cable to allow the LCD display to slide up and down inside the main body enclosure..

RMT Visualizer is getting pretty nice now current work in progress rmtplayr code is also integrated to it very nicely so what works in the tracker works exactly the same in what could be the new export format someday, who knows...

Latest printing, this time in HP Multi Jet Fusion grey nylon 12.. I have been working a bit more on the design, to round off a few areas that had been bothering me.. so one more print to do before I call it official.

Garfield strip for @Tickled_Pink. It's not the one you remembered, but a funny one for sure.

I'm back after going a week without power or Internet! To celebrate my return: If anyone wants to take a crack at porting Attack of the Petscii Robots to the 5200, 7800, Lynx, NES, PC-Engine/TG-16, and Super NES, now is your chance.

Hello. I'll leave these here https://demozoo.org/graphics/299581/

I'm not sure how you would create an onscreen UI for the DF? In a nutshell what the DF is doing is loading itself up to mimic the actual cartridge you are selecting to load. That is why the cart loads up the rom data and then has you power on the console. What you are asking is for the 7800 to already be up and running and somehow select the rom from the DF, DF loads, and then the 7800 would have to be rebooted/reset in some way? But currently when the DF loads up something, it will power off the 7800 in the process and then ask you to turn it back on. To me the menu navigation on the cartridge is very easy and takes me just as much or even less time than it would to select from a series of on screen options.

I know it's an arcade port, but for a 1990 release the graphic design is kinda plain. I guess I'm bias after having played the two snes games in the series first.

Personal opinion? No, it's what I witnessed from watching family work on CD-i projects for Philips over the course of approximately two years. About half of that time was pre-launch; about half was post-launch. That person left because Philips didn't have their act together when it came to things like setting focus and related priorities for the system. My opinion is that the CD-i was a letdown once I got my hands on it. My observation (i.e., fact) was that Philips didn't have a clear market niche for it to fill and no idea which one(s) to aim at. This makes about as much sense as your previous reply.

It's entertaining how you not only insert points in your reply that have nothing to do with what I actually said, but also manage to ignore that my lived experience with the system was considerably different in several ways. Please tell me how I'm wrong some more; it's incredibly interesting.

Downloaded all and confirmed your results. On my machine it hangs for a second before exiting. Broken upload, I guess. Replaced it with my latest and it worked, so I just remade the zip and re-uploaded. Sorry about the hassle - redownload bin2inc - https://harmlesslion.com/software/bin2inc

Great series @leejsmith! I had a huge smile on my face when you got that XL booting on episode 3!

Rich, if your extended basic rewrite is to run on a FG99 or similar cartridge couldn’t you relocate some of the existing calls and move them to an extra bank. That would give you more space for the NUD table. You then “just” need to add a trampoline function that goes to the extra bank and run the code there. Thinking about a vector table and stubs in the existing ROM bank for each of the relocated calls. That would take less space then the actual code and free up some space for the NUD table. Then again, FWIW probably should take a look at the extended basic source code again. Can’t recall if the XB roms only have the meat of the interpreter or if the ROMs also have code for the extended basic calls themselves (there probably mostly in GPL right?) On the topic of bank switching I did something similar in my Stevie editor, because 8K is never enough. Started with an 16K rom bank and am up to 64K now (although not all banks are full because I keep spreading calls accross banks). Anyway source code is on github, if you want to take a look.

Looking forward to the facelift. And when you've completed your plastic surgery (which I can only assume is some sort of pony modification), I look forward to the website's new look.

I got this... I got it in the mail a couple of days ago, just to be honest. Yay! I'm back to buying weird retro stuff now and then! (Divorce is a bitch! -but it does get better.) My 6-year-old son played the tape and had some trouble following it with the book the first time. The next day he got up early, rewound the tape and played it and pretty much followed it all the way through. Tron. A cheesier story has seldom been told. I still love it tho. The best moment was at the end when the narrator excitedly said, "If you want to hear the story again, just turn the tape over!" My son replied out loud, "No, thank you." Good manners, that kid.

I couldn't get past that second volcano scene on the 5th round either! It's super tough. 4 volcanoes, 4,300 score.

I wish I had a Data to compete with when I was a kid. I’d be much better today.

I know, we've discussed your memory mod a couple of times before. I also upgraded my daily use console back in the day, then used it to run a BBS where the extra speed helped it keep up with the modem as well as granted me faster build times. But these days, my TI is not my daily use console and I'm more interested in making sure my software will run the same way that it will run on most people's machines.

Original power supply.

Wolfgang, You caught a programming bug. I had a wrong offset in a pointer for one message base that was messing things up. This should fix it for both you and Greg. 20210907AfterHours.zip

I have to go back to this game and get it through the finish line. When is the next Intybasic contest again?

Just got my Atari XL Trak-ball in today. Had a lot of rounds of Centipede with it.

4.00-test only requires Windows 7 32-bit with an SSE2 capable processor, which is a 12 year old OS spec and a ~20 year old processor spec. That is the first operating system requirement bump I've ever done and not an unreasonable requirement in order to run the currently updated version of software. I already supported Windows XP not only after it had gone out of support but its two successors had also gone out of support, and up until the point that the compiler also dropped support for it. That you would compare this to Windows 11's stratospheric system requirements is unfair and rude.

Alien Crush is the best pinball game on the system. It is also the only one I have played, but it is still great regardless of the other games.

Lots of people like Devil Crush more but I prefer Time Cruise myself.

???? Not sure how that could possibly matter. All that CALL UNMOUNT(<drive#>) does is to change the volume# to the default volume# for that drive—same volume# as drive#, the way it was shipped. It does not result in an empty drive as happens when you physically remove a diskette from a drive on real iron. There is always a volume mounted in each of the 3 drive emulations. ...lee

LOL.. I think I may still have the wire wrapped prototype around.. It's only been 35 years or so.

What's going on with this corner not lining up? That's driving me crazy. Collection is looking outstanding! You have so many thing's I've never even heard of and many more I've never seen in person. Also the WiiU is a bit tricky to mod but once done seems like it was super easy. Don't forget never to reset your console without un-modding it first or you end up with a brick if you have coldboot installed.

Also, this bus is not available to the QI's GROM port.

That's an interesting idea, but I'm not planning to make major changes to the present version of the board. The LPC54114 MCU I am using does not have USB host capability (it does have USB Device capability which I'm using a VCOM serial port), so adding a USB host interface would require an additional chip. The other issue is that even if it had USB host, it would not be able to inject the keyboard data in a standard way, since that's handled by the TMS9901 chip on the motherboard. The CRU bus used for communicating with the TMS9901 is available on the cartridge slot, so forcibly overriding the data might be possible, but not good practice and might damage the TMS9901. The strangecart uses the TMS9900 code for most I/O, so the normal keyboard will work, with the usual performance There is a USB keyboard adapter design by @Tursi , have you looked at it? It's using a USB host chip (on a breakout board) and connects to the standard keyboard connector as I recall. I actually did order that board, but haven't had time to play with it.

Quite hectic but I managed to finish as well... Let me introduce Fallen Kingdom. Logical game with blue chess pieces trying to defeat red king.

So... Managed to finish my entry and send it It's a logic/arcade game called "Blokz". Inspired by Arcade (and console) game called "Quarth" or "Block Hole" outside Japan. Goal is to fill rectangular shapes, clear falling tetris like shapes from screen and progress as much as you can. Hope you'll like it Cheers!
