My brother refuses to play the Intellivision because of it's stiff, uncomfortable controllers. My Dad and I, however, have a blast with Sea Battle, and I can't get enough of Star Strike. It makes me feel like I'm piloting an X-Wing down the Death Star trench (even though the plot is different from the Death Star scene)
Some of you may want to bang me upside the head with a frying pan to knock some sense into me, but I actually enjoy Intelly DK. The graphics remind me of the Tandy version my dad used to play when I was only four years old.

I'm 14 and I'm an Atari freak! I get a lot of crap from my "friends" that Atari really stinks because of the poor graphics and sounds. But ya know, the only people that say that are the PS2/Xbox freaks (most GameCube owners appreciate good gameplay). A lot of the popular kids at my school can't get enough of Kaboom!

The most I've spent on Atari in one month was $80. The most I've spent on games in general, is $149.99. That's when I bought the N64.

Of course, that DD review is coming from a huge DD fan...
-
Who says they have to play the games of today? They could play all sorts of games, ranging from Space Invaders to Tony Hawk.
They could also have Karate Champ or SSBM tournaments.

Starcade was not the only video game based game show. Back in the early ninties, there was a show on Nickelodeon called Nick Arcade, but instead of playing real arcade games, they played Genesis and NES games (that were placed in orange arcade cabnets.)
The host's name was Phil Omar or something like that.

I'm with you AtariInvader, I HATE fighting games. You're either extremely good at them, or you really suck at them. I also think that if you've played one fighting game, you've played them all.

Yes, I have the overlays. What would it rate on the AtariAge rarity scale?
-
Looks neat! Is he going to send it directly to Hozer when completed, or is he going to make a limited run for a convention, and then send it to Hozer.
-
Combat was like my 50th cart.
Is Vectron rare CIB?

I am currently learning (struggling) to program the 8088 processor. Later on, I hope to program a VCS game. I was hoping that this assembly was similar to that of the 6502, or it would make learning 6502 a tad easier.

Well, first thing when I walk into church this morning, my friend Evan gives me two games he found at a garage sale:
Raiders of the Lost Ark (VCS)
Defender (VCS)
Both of which, I didn't already have. Then, my other friend Eric, gave me a box with nine, CIB Intellivision games:
Vectron
Star Strike
Tron Maze-a-Tron
Tron Deadly Discs
Las Vegas Black Jack and poker
MLB Baseball
NFL Football
Tennis
Sea Battle
That brings me to the 70 mark on the VCS cartridges, and 26 on the Intellivision mark (and still only six CV games )

Yeah, that was me with my butt hanging out while I was fishing through wires... j/k

Hee hee... my dad went nuts when he saw his picture there, and my mom was excited that you called me a boy genuis (for all the good reasons, of course)
-
Hee hee... this was my first post. I still think that this would be a cool idea. Just to see that it could be done. (and yeah, I know about the Spectravision)
-
I love Vault Assult, but I don't think Hozer produces that title.
I'm asking for Thrust for my birthday

Yes, indeed it did. Weird, huh?

Defender II for the 2600 is more like the arcade version than the NES version is (the NES version didn't have hyperspace or inviso)
Berzerk was also very well done for the 2600.
-
Popeye on the CV could not have been done better. Kudos to Parker Bros!
-
I found an Atari 800 (complete in the box) along with the Atari Programmers Kit, a joystick, and a 410, for $50 (yeah I know, kinda steep, but still an okay price)
-
To be honest with you, I don't like any of the new systems (one of the reasons I'm on this board!) The ultimate console pick is the Atari 2600. With 600+ games already out for it, and still more to come, you definitley can not go wrong with the almighty VCS.
-
Zookeeper. It seems like such an obvious pick! I'm pretty sure an okay conversion could have been done.
How about a mock-up pic Moycon?
-
Quickly Spock! Retrive - the - cartridge!

Sure it's primitive, but it was a hit in Japan when they released for the Famicom. And yes, I find myself playing it from time to time.

The only reason I like the NES is because it's nostalgic for me. The NES brought me into gaming. However, out of the 1000 games made for the NES, slightly less than 10% are really all that good.
