  1. Hi. Just saw this post https://www.facebook.com/groups/atariage/permalink/10157091449650255/ Guy got Parker Brothers boxes of unreleased Intellivision games.
  2. Received another Intellivision a few weeks ago, tested it and et voila! it works!!! also shows some of the shaky properties. Only need to test with a VCR. Wondering why it doesn't work with my Intellivision System 3 or if my EyeTV is "flaky".
  3. Here is my Elgato Eye-TV Hybrid, the quality is bad, too shaky for my purposes. Used a TI-99/4A here. Also I need an extra mini-TV because you cannot play directly from the computer, too much lag. I hope passing it thru VCR makes it less "shaky".
  4. Got these from the Digital Press Sound Archives: http://www.digitpress.com/dpsoundz/soundfx.htm My favorite one would be the Berzerk shoot sound: 26BEZERK2.WAV Another options would be Presure Cooker: 26PCOOKER2.WAV and Ms Pacman 26MS_PAC2.WAV
  5. All my books with free shipping using the ONESHIP coupon code http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/nanochess

  6. So far I'm liking the Dimension theme. :)

      The only missing thing is the Atariage logo at top left.

      Yes, that's on my list to fix!  Maybe I'll get that done this weekend.  I should be able to steal it from the Dimension theme on the old forum.

      Only the default AtariAge feels right to me, especially on mobile, where the smaller fonts on the other themes can ruin the experience. 

  7. Cool! I didn't knew Michael was into Intellivision so earlier. 😃 Kudos to Rev for doing the interview. 👍
  8. Twitter has fallen down, but I have Atariage to survive 😁

      Ah, I was wondering why so many people suddenly looked up from their phones.

      Can't it stay that way along with Faceplant and Instacrap?

      ^ We should be so lucky.

  9. My latest haul working towards 125 games. Loose or CIB. 😁
  10. Lulu.com also doesn't charge for the ISBN.
  11. Ready for my upcoming book on 8088 programming? 😁

      Sounds good!  What is your target audience / application area?

      Boot sector games :) but applicable to other areas, including embedded programming, and understanding old games.

      Waiting for the book on 8008 programming...

  12. I got a El Gato Eyetv-Hybrid for Mac but couldn't synchro via RF, the Intellivision screen appears in gray for a brief moment and then all synchro is lost. I thought all was lost, but saw the tip in the first post for passing it thru a VCR and using the composite output. I can do an attempt
  13. Hi. After Space Invaders I needed to do another boot sector game Source code at my Git: https://github.com/nanochess/Pillman Enjoy it!
  14. I've had same problem with the Quote block, also I cannot "break" it for answering questions intermixing the quote block. Don't know how to put text around, so at times I would like to have available the low-level editor.
  15. I think I've bought all what could have been bought in stores and flea's markets. Now the Intellivision goodies are found in Atariage. 😀
  16. By the way, I asked to Canada first, after weeks of no having news, I tried my luck here in Atariage and I found one, then I was waiting for the mail, when I received the message from Canada telling me he had just received it! Talking about coincidence!
  17. Cool! Didn't knew, but glad it came from you. When I started my loose cartridge collection, it was almost completely bought from you Yesterday I did a search in eBay and couldn't find anything. Also I had alerts all these years. Although maybe I lost the chance because all times my address was set to Mexico 😅
  18. Hi all. I've an extra copy of the extremely rare Imagic's Tournament Tennis for Colecovision. USD $450 shipped. It's pretty rare (had alerts for 3 years in eBay, tried a search in eBay on sold items but don't got anything although mumbai says it has appeared, nevermind!), got this one and the other in my collection through different friends. It has a small crease in the front top center. Only Paypal https://paypal.me/nanochess . Shipping Friday, via postal mail with tracking number. First come, first served. Thanks!
  19. Just noticed in the manual for IntyBASIC v1.4.1 that I did a mistake, I described BITMAP REVERSE, when the right thing is BITMAP INVERSE. The compiler is right, the posts in this thread are right, but only the included manual has this slight mistake. Just heads up. I know that no one ever reads the manuals
  20. In ECS mode: PLAY SIMPLE leaves SOUND 2 and 7 available. PLAY SIMPLE NO DRUMS also ceases to play drums in both chips. Didn't think on that. Sorry! I'll devise something for next version.
  21. Just discovered the new forum erased my list of friends :(

      Proof that Albert is more powerful than Thanos.  Fear Albert!  Don't get on his bad side!  (No, he doesn't pay me money to say this).

      I only erased half of his friends.

      Haha, too good! Albert snapped his fingers! 🤣

  22. The last four games by Coleco were Roc'n'Rope, Telly Turtle, Spy Hunter and Tapper, per Colecovision FAQ http://www.colecovision.dk/PDF/ColecoVision-faq-4.1.pdf
  23. Hi all. I was sorting my hard disk when I reminded this version of Evil Morty's theme from Rick&Morty that I've made for Intellivision+ECS (6 channels). Evil Morty is property of Adult Swim and the song is "For the Damaged Coda" by Blonde Redhead. Everything is property of their respective owner. I put this work in the Public Domain for your enjoyment. Don't make business with it evilmorty.zip
  24. Yes, if the ECS is not present, the tracker still writes to the ports but as no hardware is present then no extra sound is generated. I've include some notes in the manual, but I think now that probably I wasn't clear enough. The MUSIC statement now allows 8 arguments. Notice that once you use the 8 arguments, it activates the ECS tracker because internally now it always will read 8 bytes of music notes (4 words). So make sure you start your MUSIC statements with 8 arguments, to avoid an internal mix (crash) of different song formats. DATA 14 MUSIC C,D,E,-,F,G,A,- MUSIC STOP The 4 arguments use the same syntax as the left arguments, there are 3 notes and one drum. Here is a sample using the extended syntax of the tracker with a long song. (MUSIC GOSUB and MUSIC RETURN help to reduce the music memory usage, MUSIC SPEED allows to change tempo in the fly, and MUSIC_VOLUME helps to fade off the music at end) I've uploaded an example I've made
