  1. Seems like a lot of fun. Can't wait for the results to come in. Go Spartans! ^>^
  2. Indeed Lathe is correct. I just bought about 5 coleco games (Venture, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Carnival, Lady Bug) and the only ones that worked on my Intellivision II were DK Jr. and Lady Bug. ^>^
  3. Stumbled upon this random Intellivision video of The Power of He-man. It's done by a super Masters fanatic "Pixel Dan", and it's quite good. I've just dipped my toe in Intellivision collecting and so far I love it. Easily my top 3 games would be Bump n' jump, Tron deadly discs and power of he-man. It's a fun little review. Who else likes the game? For me, its a nice little hi-score game. Although simplistic, you get a little (and I do mean little) variety in ship combat, and dodging enemy fire. And the music is just awesome. Anyways, cheers guys! ^>^ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZ5Tk8phJw8
  4. Well added a few more games to the lineup this week: -Checkers (complete) -Skiing (Complete) Still on the fence whether I should pick up the Intellivoice with complete Bomb Squad for $30 bucks. There's a few more boxed Intelly stuff at the pawnshop, but the games are all ones I don't really care much for. Sub Hunt, NASL Soccer, Armor Battle, Tennis. If anyone has any duplicates they want to trade/unload I would gladly work something out with you. ^>^
  5. I just saw the video. Just awesome. The system changer and the videoplex...speechless. Voltron, you're one cool cat. ^>^
  6. Yeah I'm really digging all of those. Bump N' Jump especially. Huh, I didn't think the Intellevoice worked on the Intelly 2. Good to know! Thanks. ^>^
  7. Haha, Indeed. Well I went to the place and they had a few common intelly games. I got 6 boxed games, with all the manuals and overlays too. -Las Vegas Blackjack and Poker -Space Battle -Space Armada -Astrosmash -Auto Racing -MLB They also had a boxed intellivoice for $20, as well as a CIB Bomb Squad (I believe that's what its called) for $10. I passed on it since I can't use it with my model 2. All in all, very happy hunting. ^>^
  8. Hey thanks guys. No my DK Jr. is loose. So no box or anything. I actually can't wait until the pawn shop opens as they have a number of boxed intellivision games. And if memory servers me correctly they have a boxed intellivoice as well. ^>^
  9. I traded in some games at a local game store and got a hefty amount of store credit. So I decided to take the plunge into the Intellivision. -Intellivision II -Bowling (loose, overlays) -Snafu (Overlays) -He Man -Bump N' Jump -Tron Deadly Discs -Pitfall -Lady Bug -DK Jr. -Donkey Kong/Venture/Carnival (all loose and they don't work on my Intelly, oh well) -Burgertime (overlays) -AD&D (CIB) Can't wait to scour the other pawn shop in town for their Intellivision stuff. ^>^
  10. Some time has gone by and I can safely say that my notebook is filling up. One page per game with 12 pages used already. Most of them have at least 3 scores in each game. Although Vanguard has 4. But some games like Midnight Magic I don't think I'll ever beat. lol, oh well. That's the way the cookie crumbles! I'm having a ton of fun though.
  11. Berzerk (check out the avatar...) Missile command Joust Avenger Millipede Midnight Magic River Raid Warlords Asteroids Pole Position
  12. ^Hey I just got Solar Fox today! Quite addictive. Venture is another game that's got a lot of potential for taking up my time...
  13. Just got done playing some newly acquired Atari games.

  15. I've seem too be playing a lot of Vanguard, Millipede and Gorf. How about you guys?
  16. Dumb. Just dumb. Better luck next time eh?
  17. ^lol, nice one. I got back into the fold a little while ago too. Although I grew up with the Colecovision and NES, the Atari showed me that graphics/story isn't everything. Nothing beats 4 player Warlords, a game of Combat with a friend or just competing against your Hi-Scores. Welcome Back.
  18. Maybe its just me but I find that keeping these scores I'm more inclined to play. Most of the time I can't get another person to join me in some Atari goodness. So trying to beat my various scores is what's keeping me on my Atari fix. I don't get that with my modern systems at all. There's just something so right about it just being you versus your score. And trying to topple it. I mean most of the games were built to outlast you. You were going to screw up sometime, but seeing how far you can go or how many points you can score is a lot of fun. I think we lost some of that fun over the years/decades. Whew, I'm done! lol.
  19. Asteroids for sure. Did it awhile back on the variation with no UFO's or whatever...
  20. If the gf ever took back the Atari I would just get another one. There's just something...off about emulation. Never liked it. I like having the physical copy of said item. Different strokes for different folks. Oh, and hunting down the carts is half the fun too!
  21. A very interesting idea! Wouldn't ming seeing this panning out.
  22. While I don't have an extensive library of 2600 games (not yet ) what's the game that sees little to no attention in your collection? I have a few. Raiders of the Lost Ark, Maze Craze and Star Raiders get the nod for me. How about you guys?
