Ultimate Pong for Intellivision Review

[Ultimate Pong for Intellivision Review]

What is THE earliest arcade video game?

 

Great question! According to this link it is something called "Syzygy" in 1971

[Ultimate Pong for Intellivision Review]

This is my first Intellivision game review. Check out Ultimate Pong!

 

[E.T. is awesome]

Excerpt from my YT review:

"The games programmer, Howard Scott Warshaw, was impressively able to design, program, get sign off from Steven Spielberg on the completed project, all in a time span of just five weeks. It contained the first sanctioned video game Easter egg, meaning permission was granted before inserting it into the game. This game also contains one of the earliest examples of in game product placements, Reese's pieces. ET is a single player game.

 

I am pretty sure I received this game for Christmas that year. At the time it really didn’t matter to me how good or bad the game was, I had the ET game and I was a happy camper. Atari produced over five million copies of this game"

[Hacker Face (2600)]

Nice game. I find it to be addictive. I had a question. Can the game be beaten or are you just playing for score?

 

I notice when you fire and miss your bullet sometimes stays at the end.

 

If I were to nitpick, I would want there to be a pause in game play after you "die". The other thing I would want fixed in this, would be for the sound at the end of the game to go away after a few seconds.

 

Nice job!

I hadn't seen that before, really neat. Thanks for sharing!

[Indie Games Makers]

Great question, it looks like it is currently available to watch on both services. I will check it out soon.

[Indie Games Makers]

I agree with your points and I do my part to try to support the homebrew/indie developers out there.

 

I have played both the games you mentioned, so richly developed, fun and extremely challenging (some might say impossible...)

 

Thanks for mentioning Indie Game the movie I hadn't seen it but it looks really good here's the trailer.

 

 

Also here's the website for purchasing the film:

[Starting over with the Intellivision]

I say welcome back to Intellivision. It is a great console and there are still developers making great games for the system. Some of those are freely available to download. Some are also available to purchase as a ROM download for around $10 or so and are well worth it, IMO. I picked up one of those LTO flash devices and they are great. Also if you are feeling nostalgic, then playing Intellivision is a great way to bring back those memories...

Mountain king?

That was really beautiful Albert, you raised the bar for new Atari 2600 video game trailers.

[Best Atari 2600 hacks]

I certainly thought Nukey Shays, Pac-Man 8k was a HACK.

 

In fact I dug up my review from my onenote and would like to share it with you guys here. Let me know what you think...

[Best Atari 2600 hacks]

I am sort of a Pac-Man nut, so my favorite hacks are by Nukey Shay:

 

1. Pac-Man 8K

2. Hack'EM

3. Ms. Hack

Ah, nice. Those cartridges are hard to find now and expensive. They are also fun to play around with and try to hack the games with or to just follow along with the fanzine.

[Action Replay software demo on Commodore 64]

Follow along as I demonstrate the Action replay software on a physical C64c as well as two emulators and perform some game hacks from Freeze64 fanzine!!

Yeah, that Mr. SQL is one quotable guy! Thank you for watching...

[Introducing GPAC Dementia Defender for the Commodore 64]

Hi, I thought I would post the first two of the final four videos in the Pac-Clone series here, then the remaining two when completed,

 

 

[Introducing GPAC Dementia Defender for the Commodore 64]

Thank you so much. I appreciate your comments. On the diskette I sent you, I gave you a special version with a "shout out" to you. Unless I sent it to someone else... But I also have that version available as a .prg if you would like me to email it you. I'll need your email address.

 

I have 4 more videos coming out to complete the series. I hope to post at least the first one by this weekend, hopefully Friday.

[Introducing GPAC Dementia Defender for the Commodore 64]

Thank you, very nice to hear. Does that mean you received your physical copy? I am leaning towards not yet...

 

FYI, someone notified me on my channel today that someone has already "cracked" my game adding a cracktro and trainer.

I checked it out, they seemed to do a pretty good job of it. I am flattered. I had checked out that site to try to distribute GPAC but couldn't figure out who to contact.

 

Anyway that's pretty fast for only being released for something like three days.

[Introducing GPAC Dementia Defender for the Commodore 64]

Hello everyone, I am proud to say I have completed development on my Pac-Clone game. It has been a great learning experience, and I had a lot of fun doing it.

 

Gameplay and announcement video here:

 

 

I still have two or three more videos covering the development yet to be released but coming soon on youtube.com/graydefender

 

If anyone is interested as of the time of this posting there are 5 (five) physical copies up for grabs. Send me an email at [email protected] if you would like a boxed copy.

 

Thank you for your support!

[INTEREST CHECK: New Reproduction Overlays...]

Count me in as well for a full set. Thank you.

Great video! I am sooo jealous. I would pay good money to own one of these devices.
