  1. You could give me one of those if you wanted ;) I still have yet to get my hands on a C64 again, I was too busy trying for the PCJr to get a C64! We had one at my parents house when I was a kid and I loved that thing!...maybe I'll ask for it for Christmas, I think it's still in a box in my folks' basement :D


  2. There could be a possibility that the button simply is not making a proper connection. I would first try popping open the top of the case to see if the plastic is seated properly, as sometimes the plastic doesn't hit the center of the 'bubble' on the board to make the connection.


  3. Hi everyone! I just got my first Intellivision! Woohoo from me! I bought it untested from Goodwill and traded acousticguitar for some carts (so I can guarantee the carts work!). Awesome!

     

    The not so awesome part -- the intellivision loads Demon Attack perfectly with absolutely no problems. I was playing it for a bit and chose to put in Sea Battle. I have Demon Attack and all the (Battle) carts right now. None of these carts will load, to the best of my knowledge. I stick 'em in and the screen turns green, then purple, then turns black and then nothing -- is it loading or something? I couldn't figure it out and might just be too impatient.

     

    Sea Battle eventually got to a 'mattel' screen and I pushed the button on the controller, causing the screen to go black. Then it just sat there.

     

    Any suggestions? Patience is a virtue here?


  4. Nope, sadly. He and Steve Wiebe surpassed 1 million points quite a while ago. Not to mention:

     

    A) You're using an emulator, which would fall under a different category in the Twin Galaxies High Scores, and

    B) If you didn't videotape it, it wouldn't count anyway

     

    Still an amazing score. I could never get that high, I can barely pass screen 3. Good work!


  5. Apologies for the double post, but I wanted to give everyone an update on some of the proprietary stuff I got with this system.

     

    I have a working Jr now thanks to a certain group mentioned above, and I tested out some of the software. Some of the disks no longer work, obviously due to age....

     

    But one of the most frustrating collector-ism things I have is that the "PCJr Sales Training Diskette"....contains a copy....of POLICE QUEST now.

     

    Woohoo for Police Quest, I guess, but apparently someone formatted the disk and copied PQ1 on it. :(
