    I've being looking for a cheap power supply for a few months.

    I saw a listing on ebay an INTV II that include a Sega power supply.

     

    eBay Auction -- Item Number: 3304173115631?ff3=2&pub=5574883395&toolid=10001&campid=5336500554&customid=&item=330417311563&mpt=[CACHEBUSTER]

     

    So I ask the seller about it and this is what he told me.

     

    "The Sega 9V DC with 1.2milliamps actually reads as 16.2v. Its a very weird adapter. If you use a 2.1 to 2.5 adapter it works great!"

     

    If I'm not mistaking, the INTV is 16.2v AC

     

    Can somebody confirm that it is compatible.

     

    thanks.

    Is it possible for you to get me front, back and bottom scans of each box please? Send scans to [email protected] I suggest sending them in separate emails. Just let me know when it's happening. The ABPA Backgammon I can use immediately since that variation listing is finished.

    Correct me if Im wrong, but the French Canadian versions (which I think these are), were only labeled in french on the box/manual, and no actual change to the ROM file in the cart, correct?

     

    That's right.

    Following bill 101 in the province of Quebec in 1980 everything needs to be at lease in French.

    I'm not sure if was respected by all manufacturers!

    As for the mother ship levels, your goal here is to PILE the shots in, regardless if they hit the birds or not, as it takes X missed shots to wear out the mother ship's force field, and the X number of course goes up each trip up there.

     

    I tough that you had to hit the moving open part, where the birds are exiting!

    My first entry: 113270, no luck on the special :(

     

    The enemies movement is very different from the intellivision version.

    The intellivision is more intelligent, they will find the way to get to you no mater.

    Whit the Coleco version, it's like they are staying at the same level (vertical, horizontal) then you.

    But the coleco's are faster.

    No new score to report, but I have a new strategy some others may want to try.

     

    1. Get the hearts when they're blue. Do so as soon as possible without getting letters and eating the least amount of dots as possible.

     

    2. After you have all hearts wait for the letters to turn to red then eat them. The red color will only last for <1 second so you must be right next to them. When red they are worth 800 points, if you have all the hearts for the 5x bonus that's 4000 points. Two letters per round is 8000 points. It adds up.

     

    3. Get the veggies each round. If possible try to save a skull or two and lead the baddies into them. I think it was round 3 where I got the veggies 3 times.

     

    The downside of this is you don't get any extra lives. If you navigate the maze well enough you should be able to last quite a while.

     

    I have a couple of nights to try this and that'll be it for me this week. I like this game and can't wait for the next challenge.

     

    1. I agree

    2. I prefer getting the EXTRA. Too bad we cannot spell "SPECIAL" in red like in the original game. After spelling "SPECIAL", you've get a bonus round of all veggies.

    3. It's sometime difficult to save the skulls especially starting at level 9 when the baddies are getting to get faster then you.

    Sorry patbb, but I had to one-up you... I've been loving the challenge, and I hope you come back to put another score up before time has expired...

     

    New score : 158,420

    As requested ...

    I got lucky on this game .. 3 EXTRA

    184630

    I should have cleared the level instead of waiting for the veggie.

    It's hard to make a selection.

    I never played White water ... I should.

     

    The selection I made is truckin'

     

    1-Because it's a game that two can play at the same time.

    2-The split screen was also new to me.

    3-There is a nice map that comes with it, so you have to use something else than the program to help you find the best way to get from point A to point B.

    4-Two game in one...Speed or Money

    5- Many things do do: manage gas, speed (watch out for the police), avoid incoming traffic.

     

    I no longer have the map, does anybody have a nice JPG I can use?

    Or, I will send a letter to Imagic ... see image

    Does anybody have a PDF copy of the manual? I have the cart, box, inlay and catalog but no Manual :(

    I'd like to see this happen for all the Intellivision manuals. I have 217 Atari 2600, 769 NES and 212 Sega Genesis manuals in PDF format and it's great... not to mention the Atari Manual Tome v1.51. Heck if I had thought of it BEFORE I sold my collection I could have done 65 of these...

     

    DP only has 13 that are in PDF format and I find it odd that no one has done this yet.

    ...Or have they?

     

    (I don't know anything about the person or persons behind the site and scans -- all I know is that it's a great resource, and I'm grateful to 'em!)

     

    Excellent! very nice find.

     

    What I was looking for is on page 7. See Image.

    Welcome to the fun addicting if I may say so, world of the Stalker... They seem easy at first, until that nasty black robot that blasts your bunker to kingdom come, and if that wasnt enough, keep going and they turn his butt "invisible" (the same color as the background)... Cheeky little sneaks :)

     

    I remember playing for hours.

    If I remember correctly it took a couple of hours before getting to the invisible/blaster bunker robots types.

     

    Does anybody have a PDF copy of the manual? I have the cart, box, inlay and catalog but no Manual :(

    I think there is a picture of each robot, there specifications and the number of points it take before they show up.
