Still waiting on my mystery game as well...sent PM and email, no answer. Ordered April 15th.

I don't mean to add to the sausage-fest, but for better or worse, in real life women are not equally represented in all disciplines or roles. This is unfortunate for many reasons, but it is a fact.
Therefore, over-representing them in movies, or casting them in roles mostly represented by men in real life societies, may seem strange to some, and more than a bit of over-eager "politically correctness".
Just sayin'... I personally don't care either way. :shrug:
I'm looking forward to more Star Wars.
Carry on.
True. As the characters in the original movies are mostly warriors, smugglers, military and political figures, it shouldn't be a shock that they are mostly male.

Alrighty, tomorrow Ill go back and probably pick it up. I don't really have 80$ to shell out to start the collection up, as i'm a college student, but Ill try to picture the stuff and if anyone on here is interested we can work something out. Again thanks a lot yall.
You should consider picking up a flashback system as an introduction to the Intellivision, you could prob get one for <$30.

Why am I the only one that did not care for this movie? Thank God we'll always have the original trilogy.
I didn't care for it either. I would say 6/10. As mentioned by others, it's effectively a remake of the original films (recycling all the same plot points with new characters).

Here is a previous games recommendation thread-
http://atariage.com/forums/topic/238765-just-got-an-intellivision-can-you-recommend-good-games/
Bump N Jump on the Intellivision is a must play. IMHO, it is far superior to the Coleco, NES, and Arcade versions and the disc controls are top notch.

Played a Vectrex for the first time at the Pittsburgh Gaming and Pinball Expo this year. I found the display mesmerizing...one of these days I'll get one...

Also, I believe my #001873 is the lowest serial number Intellivoice out there! I've never seen pictures or talk of one with a lower serial.
Nooooooo!!!! Ha, I guess unless you have #000001 someone can always pass you.

I ordered Beamrider from Venezuela a year ago. Item wasnt in as good of shape as claimed, and clearly wasn't the one in pic. However the price was good enough and condition still nice, so that I was happy overall. Shipping was extremely fast and arrived faster than some packages shipped from the US.
-
Too funny, I thought this whole thing was a joke (and haven't been spending too much time in the forum lately). As it seems I missed the cart release, will there be a ROM at some point?
-
Saw a few INTV flashbacks last week at Family Dollar (not Dollar General) with $25 price tags.
-
Hehe, somehow I forgot about that. How quickly 6 months goes by...and how fast I forget. Either way, I have a second Taiwan console on the way, but I think it's also missing the Serial Number sticker
Here's another from Taiwan....with a serial number sticker!

So I was just about to post a derisive comment about having some idiot buy me that ugly copy of Hover Force with the glowing description of its quality that was up on Ebay for a ridiculously inflated price...and some idiot already bought it. Seriously, what kind of moron buys a $25 game (in this condition) for $120?
-
Good point. If I could combine the 2 systems I'd be better off. The INTV has some beat up controllers (part of the keypad missing on player 1, the overlay plastic is partially broken on player 2) but the display seems ok. The original Intellivision has some display issues but the controllers are better, I'm going to try cleaning the original a little soon but thought I'd see what others had to say.
You can combine the systems. They are compatible, you will just have to open the system cases and take out the controllers. Make sure you mind the orientation of the controller plugs.

Cool, thanks for the clarification Arnauld. This game is truly great...I'm sure it was covered in another thread somewhere but any chance of another CIB release?
-
Are you suggesting I wander outside of the comfortable confines of the Intellivision section?

Anyone else going to this event at the Pittsburgh Convention Center?
I'll be there (all day?) on Thursday, staring lovingly at the "Track & Field" arcade cabinet .
ps I'll probably have an Intellivision shirt on, for full effect.
-
Hmmm, there must be multiple passwords. If I'm reading my own chart correctly, level 2, 5 lives is also 221260.

Finally picked up a Sears Checkers (and Sears Tennis, plus a few other box upgrades).
Anyone here pick up the other lot, with both Sears Checkers and Backgammon?
-
Wow, that is nice. It has been my experience that for 'rare' games some game exchange stores ignore condition and simply get price information from the last several sales of a game on ebay or use videogamepricecharts, which can mean overpriced poor condition games but underpriced mint condition ones.

Looks like this Congo Bongo is back on the market. If i remember correctly it sold for $200 a year ago? That box is something only a mother could love...

The con itself is ReplayFX here in Pittsburgh, 7/30-8/2. http://replayfx.org/
Awesome, I'll have to stop down. Sadly I don't see intellivision listed under the console games section .

Does anyone have a 'Made in Taiwan' Intellivision 1 console? The early ones were made in USA, and most of the other ones were made in Hong Kong. I have one from Taiwan and wanted some perspective. If you have one, does it have a serial number? Mine is missing that sticker.
See post #342 in this very thread.

At some point in the intervening 6 years (lol) since I posted this message, I put in a concerted effort and made it much farther than I ever had before. Can't remember exactly how far but it was at least half way through the game. Still one of my all time favorites on the Intellivision. The disc control is great, side buttons not so much. Can't remember if I tried on intvdave's version or not, I'll have to check and see soon...
