Would it be possible for an emulator to be programmed to work with the Intellivision Flashback controllers ON THE SOFTWARE SIDE, to eliminate the need for the adaptors? Like a switch between normal controllers that would be hooked to a USB adaptor, and a Flashback controller that would be hooked to a USB adaptor to PC or Mac?

No prob

Ok, cool. Usually you answer my email within 3 days and I think its been a couple weeks and I sent you a second email no response so I was checking on ya.

Wondering if he's all right

The site is completely gone?

They always had the manual scans nobody else had!

Nurmix, Can you add me to your Flashback adaptors list? I got a spare Intv II controller and hooked it up to a laptop with the Visiondapter. I totally want to try a flashback controller on the laptop and on the Intellivision II. Shark..Shark..

What's Star and Adventure?

I cant remember if one of the 2 Flashbacks was missing a power adaptor or what...looked everywhere, only found the one. I used the one I found with Colecovision Flashback last night, will try it with Intellivision Flashback. In comparison, Ive used the Intellivision Flashback much more than the Colecovision Flashback. Kind of trying out the Colecovision Flashback again last night after a long time, it seems pretty bad. Hard to control. Is Jumpman Junior normally that hard to align to and climb ladders? It was frustrating.

Are the Colecovision and Intellivision Flashback power adaptors the same? I have both Flashbacks but can only find one power supply. Don't want to fry one of them, plugging in the wrong adaptor.

Do the Intellivision Flashback and Colecovision Flashback have the same power adaptor?

1724 is what I got with the 16k ram in the expander.

RESPECT on the high score!!

Typed these in from the simplified instruction booklet. The keyboard rather sucks, in my opinion. Cant get used to the space button on the left and keep wanting to mess up by hitting the other key next to it. I wonder if its just from age, but the main drawback is typing and having a lot of missing letters, like you can't type lightly. I couldn't tell if you can fire and move simultaneously in TRON. Intellivision you can't run and fire at the same time.

There was never a disk drive?

What's the attraction to the Aquarius? (A question, not a put-down) The only BASIC I know is TI-99/4A as well, my first computer too. Is it nostalgia? Or that it appears to be simpler than some other computers? Sounds like its not the games?

The games are pretty bad? How about programming on it?

Ok. Can you fire and move simultaneously? You have to fire and move separately in Intellivision. Meaning one after another. Unless you modify the controller with 2 matrices jammed inside one shell. What's the biggest basic program the machine can handle?

I think the computer manual mentions the extended basic. So was David Rolfe and the Bkue Sky Rangers involved in creating the Aquarius? I think it was a prize on Starcade back in the day.

I know the cartridge size is different, I just meant the software side of things. Like, does the Aquarius have an exec rom and similar operating system to the Intellivision? Or is it a completely different system, what kind of BASIC does it run?

Yes. Never had an Aquarius before. I wonder if the controllers would be compatible with the Intellivision. Obviously it doesn't have the same number of keys. Is there an Aquarius multicart? Are the game ROMS the same kilobyte size as Intellivision? Meaning are games like Astrosmash basically interchangeable between Aquarius and Intellivision or does the Aquarius have very slightly better graphics? Jaybird3rd, I can't promise anything just yet, but you have dibs if I sell anything. It would be good to help out a definitive Aquarius website.

The seller said, "If she had to ask can you hook it up to a TV, maybe you're better off with it." I didn't necessarily want it, or have the space. But I didn't want all those original boxes and hardware to go to waste.
