There was a game called Yars' Return which first appeared on the Atari FB2. Could this be the sequel?

I have the FB9 Gold and there is not delayed audio problem. Maybe this is only present in the regular FB9 HDMI?

Good to know so there isn't any incentive for me to continue buying these things unless my FB9 stops working.

Agreed and PLEASE!

For comparisons sake, what version of Stella was on the FB9 Gold?

If the owner calls the third xbox an xbox one, then I think said owner needs to go back to elementary school and re-learn numerical order! 😄

I know this was a typo, but the thought of them being sued, they may need a keg to drown their sorrows!😂

The thought never occurred to me. The last console I bought was a Sega Genesis (after my Intellivision went kaput). I'm glad I can right that by purchasing an Intellivision Amico! 🙂

And I thought people were lazy for ordering online for McDonalds because they couldn't be bothered to wait for their order at a drive through for a fast food restaurant?! 😜

I don't see any sweater's on the Amico website. What site are you looking at? I only see T-shirts...

Wait, I thought this was supposed to be... 😀😄😂🤣

I have one as well. It definitely makes for great Intellivision gaming on an HD TV! I will continue to use it until the Amico comes out, depending on which of the old games I can load on it. I disagree! It is the next generation Intellivision made by Intellivision Entertainment. It also has the Intellivision name on it, and it plays the old Intellivision games as well as the new ones they are putting out. So it is not the old Intellivision, but it is a new version for a new generation. 😉

Thanks! I couldn't find a topic on this. Glad you did!

I am looking for a list of games that are fun for co-op play (two players at the same time, not separately) on the Atari 2600 that use the joystick only (no paddle games please). Here is what I have so far: Air-Sea Battle Armor Ambush Atlantis Basketball Boxing Championship Soccer Combat Combat II Football Fishing Derby Freeway Frogs and Flies Ice Hockey Incoming Joust Outlaw Real Sports Baseball Real Sports Boxing Real Sports Football Real Sports Soccer Real Sports Tennis Real Sports Volleyball Sky Diver Space Invaders Space Rocks Super Baseball Super Football Super Challenge Baseball Super Challenge Football Any help would be much appreciated!

Didn't your parents ever tell you not to play with electricity?! 😄

With Tommy being generous lately by giving a game away and more information, maybe he will end up being the "Oprah" of video games: "You get one. You get one. You get one. Well, you all get one!" 😂 Just kidding! Seriously though, my Dad and I played hockey all the time. It would be fun to be able to play with four people at the same time! I spoke to the wife and showed her the new website. She was like "what's that?" I told her that was the new Intellivision system I was talking about that is coming out in a year. To engage her more in the situation, I asked her which color scheme she liked best since it will be going in our living room. She liked the black & blue one the best because it looks modern. That was the one I picked out because it reminds me of Tron! So glad we agree on something! 😁

I think he is saying it could be Astrosmash or Frog Bog as the pack in game. He's just not telling you which one. 😉

Then it must be for legal issues is my guess. It encourages adding illegally obtained ROMs? If that's not the reason, then what is it?

Bill, For those of us who are not skilled with a soldering iron, will there be an option to buy compatible paddles for the FB9? I don't understand why paddles are being made for all FB systems but that one, especially when it was publicized that AtGames paddles will work with the FB9 Gold.

I'm not in the know with techy stuff, but exactly how would you utilize the information on the card that comes with the t-shirt? Is this basically downloading an app that will read the information? Thanks in advance for the help!

From past experience on the FB handheld, all I do is keep a backup folder of all my games on my PC or USB stick. When I want to add a game, I add it to the backup folder, then I delete all the games on my SD card for the FB. After that I select all the games in the backup folder and copy them to the SD card making sure I'm starting with the first file in the folder. This method copies the files over in alphabetical order which will keep it in alpha order on the SD card when read by the FB system. Hope this makes sense...

FB9 Gold because it has an SD card, HDMI output, and wireless joysticks that work great. The only disappointment is the lack of paddle support.

That's fair. I would pay $5 for a bundle. That makes sense instead of charging that much per game. I'll try to change my avitar. Thanks!

Uh, I've heard on several accounts that the Retron 77 does NOT work well with the original unmodified paddles. It's been said on this forum you need to make some modifications for it to work. The FB9 can play Space Rocks. I've done so on mine. The more recent homebrews like Galaga, I know the Retron has the edge there. As far as the controllers that come with the Retron, it's been well advised to stay away because they brake after little use. Also, the cartridge slot is very inconsistent. I might have bought the Retron if it didn't have so many issues to begin with and that's why I ended up with the FB9. If this paddle issue would be worked out fully on either system, I would feel better about that...

Tommy, I have a question regarding the purchase of the legacy (original INTV) games to play on the Amico. If we can prove we owned the Intellivision Lives and Rocks CD's, would there be a way made where we could download those onto the Amico either at no charge or at a discounted rate? Just thinking it would be a shame to have to pay full price for these games a second time over. Again, I am asking about this for the original Intellivision games only, not the re-imagined ones. Thanks!
