DZ-Jay

Very interesting! And cool!

Yup! I mentioned that one before. However, thinking about it some more, it seems like ROMulator should be qualified with something Inty-ish; perhaps something like "Intelligent ROMulator," or "Groovy ROMulator." -dZ.

Hey, give me a break. I have a very eclectic library, curated for over 30 years. It's not really my fault that it has a bunch of 80s pop in it... By the way, I'm trying to pick the songs from memory, and there is indeed a bunch of 80s pop in there--but mostly there's Italo Disco, Electro, and synth pop. Anyway... Have some more Italo: Little Russian - Mr. Zivago

Mine's pretty simple. Once upon a time, when dinosaurs roam the network, and 16MB of RAM on your PC was considered "high end," I used to skydive. I also was a member of a local BBS (Bulletin Board System, an ancient type of online forum, where you connected via modem) in my town. When I joined the BBS, I needed to come up with a nickname as a login, and after agonizing over it for almost 10 whole minutes, I came up with "DZ J." This was short for "Drop Zone James" (Drop Zone being a skydiving term for the area where you land, and James my name." I thought it was pretty cool. There was a minimum number of characters, and the dot and space were not allowed, so I changed it to "DZ-Jay." Being a local BBS, we also used to meet in real life, to go to the movies or bowling, and it was common (and fun) to call each other by our nicks. After all, that's how we knew each other when communicating online, which was quite often. My later-to-be wife was a technical support rep and sysop (system operator, like a moderator now) at that BBS, and I met her while calling for support one day. We later met at a group outing to the movies, and hit it off--but that's another story. Anyway, people called me "DZ-Jay" then and it spread around to new friends and acquaintances, and it stuck; and I've been using that as my online and offline nickname since. Even my wife calls me "DZ." About the only people who call me by my real name are my parents. So there you have it, the story of "DZ-Jay." dZ.

I'm guessing we moved out of Death Metal... Baila Bolero - Fun Fun Back to Italo it is...

All recommendations so far are good. If you're looking for "simple addictive fun," you'll like Christmas Carol, Worm Whomper, and BurgerTime. Worm Whomper is a bit pricey to get, but it is good. You can play Christmas Carol for free, the ROM is available for download. For the full experience, you may want to purchase the collectible edition, which comes in a beautiful gatefold box, with color glossy manual, overlays, cartridge with custom stickers. The ROM is available on the official web page. dZ.

I'm out. Death Metal is not my thing...

I think this is just a plot by Rev to inflate the Intellivision AA forum...

The World Is You - Miko Mission Italo rules...

Everybody Wants To Rule The World - Tears For Fears

I stand corrected, and curse myself for missing the opportunity. -dZ.

324 posts? Is that the best y-- ah... screw it.

323 posts? Is that the best you can do?

322 posts? Is that the best you can do?

321 posts? Is that the best you can do?

Bzzzzt! I thought about that one, but I believe the name of the song is just "Sedated." -dZ.

So, which song are we currently in? I was about to respond to PacManPlus' entry, but it's gone now...

Alone Without You - King Cool song... I have it in vinyl, from my 80s DJ days.

Yes, because God forfend we only get a misley 1.00 GB to store our Intellivision ROMs...

Daaaaad! I gotta pee! Are we there yet?

I have an extra Bump 'n Jump... PM me if interested.

Oh, I see, it has a bat and a ball and... bases. Therefore, they're the same game with a different name. We're not talking about a change in license or marketing category, Mattel INTV Corp. did release it as an entirely different game. I don't know anything about sports, and I've never played either, but even I can tell they are different games. -dZ.

How 'bout now?
