Ignorama

I recently got a second CiB copy of CBS Turbo and I want to trade it. Its in a good condition, but has some flaws and is far away from beeing mint. I will take some pictures later. Here is the list I am looking for. The games in brackets are maybe part of another trade. They can be offered, but I prefer the other games. I also could imagine to sell the game, or to trade with compesations. So if anyone has a SMB to spare just tell me and we find a solution Spiker Stadium Mud Buggies Triple Challenge (Worm Whomper) Chess Jetsons World Series Major League Baseball Scooby Doo Kool Aid Man (Loco Motion) (Bump'n Jump) World Championship Baseball (Dig Dug) Body Slam (Mountain Madness) Slap Shot Learning Fun I Learning Fun II

Well, I prefer to use 16 directions and 15 Buttons May I never understand why so many people are cursing the Intellivision Controller, I like it.

@ Cat Yes. Its pretty rare and shipping from France is much cheaper than from UK.

@ CatPix Its the ECS I have on my Ebay watchlist too, but its untested and so I am not going to pay premium price for it.

@ Mike Yes, Oliver @ Steve This is the case I had in mind why I may dont get a Wing War box. Well, I will see what happens, maybe I get a box, maybe I get my money back. Both cases would be okay for me.

Nice, but its not North & South But it looks pretty good, I am in for one

Sorry if it was asked before, but when do you plan to release this game? I dont mean a date, I just wonder if Mars Mini Games will be released before Killbotz.

vprette knows the game and he think its feasible. I am no programmer, but I am optimistic that it is. Basically the battlefield part is the maingame. You have two sides and battle til one army is down. As the player you can choose between cannons, cavalry and normal soldiers. You just can controll ONE of this units, but you can change it at any time. Its a real time battle system, so I imagine to control the units via disk and you just need one single button to shot (you can adjust the firepower of the cannons by holding the button). This should be no problem. The "World map" is really comparable to Risk, because if you bring your opponent down you defent your position (if you were attacked by him) or you take his. The aim is to occupy the whole playboard. You can see the borders of the states on the map and the black rail lines. Its neccessary to own every state which a rail line runs through. Is thats the case you get money (you could say that are money trains), if the enemy disrupts all your lines you get no money. Money is needed to buy ammunition for the cannons and soldiers. How to own the states? Its easy, just own the fort in the state If you attack and defeat units from the other player you automatically occupy his fort. If he has no troops to defent his fort (this is a different to Risk, you dont have to stay with your troops in every single state) a mini game starts and as far as I remeber you have to play a short Jump'N Run stage. Also quite feasable for the Intellivison, its a bit like the bridge stage in Dragonfire, or may compare it to Pitfall. There is a second mini game which allows to rob the money train of the opponent. I dont really remember if that happens radomly or not, but its also just a Jump'N Run stage on the train. There are some more little gameplay elements, but basically the game consists of the battlefield-screen, two short Jump'N Run stages and a simple board game. Maybe play it with an emulator to check it out, because it sounds quite boring, but its a lot of fun to play.

Well, I am a bit bleary today and read this completely wrong. Thanks for the enlightement. Great work anyway and I am in for two sets.

Ah, so Sears games came without overlays? To tell the truth: I never hold a Sears copy in my hands

Thanks, I found the picture and quoted it if anyone else forgot how it looks like. Awesome work. Just to grow my Intellivision knowledge: Which Overlay variant was included in the original Sears releases? Is it shown here: http://intvfunhouse.com/games/mlbb.php

If its a box in INTV size you can sent it as priority mail to Europe. It costs 35$ is insured and fast. There is a cheaper way, but its not insured and took sometimes a few month to arrive. If I were you, I wont offer uninsured shipping. The price is okay, but I have a question: Why do you send labels? I missed that part, maybe there is a picute hidden in this thread? And why are there 60 overlays for 29 games? Last question: May you could check if its possible to send three sets in a priority mail box for 35? I dont know if its to heavy. Edit: Ah, two Brotherhood Overlays But I cant find the labels.

I wrote to the seller (he is from Germany). If there is a problem (maybe a old link) I let you know, but I also think that everything is all right.

http://www.intellivisionworld.com/english/store/ Or did I made anything wrong? I recently heard some voices that its not available, but it was avaible every time I visited this site.

I finally ordered the Wing War Box. I had this in mind for weeks, but I wasnt sure if I will pay nearly 30€ for that. Well, I guess I wont regret it

I really get confused by all this teasing, I dont know what it is, but I am in for one copy

We'll see, but in any case I am really thankful that you try it. If it happens its perfect, if not you cant to anything

I voted, what a surprise, for "yes, I would definitely buy at least one copy". In this special case I am also willing to pay a premium price to get serial No 1, because this game is something VERY special for me. So if this dream comes true please offer me that Number before selling it so someone else

I dont wanna be impolite to Elektronite with this thread, but I am delighted from this statement in another thread: Of course this is not even close to be an announcement, but I am really addicted to this game and I wonder how you folks think about this game. If this poll unwanted by Elektronite just PM me and I ask an Admin or Mod to delete it, but I want to force this dream to become true

Please make this happen, this would be the best day in my intellivision life

The Intellivision is immortal, so this cant be true. But thank you, I guess the flash RAM lives long enough

What is the lifetime of that memory? I am really a noob at such things

Maybe a stupid question, but is a backup battery inside of the cart? And now we have save stats, so I am excited when you announce the 1st JRPG for the Intellivision

Is there a difference in value between CBS and Coleco Turbo?

Beatiful, if there werent this Atari stuff Do you have all 125 official releases? I look to your signature answers this question
