I have one that looks just like that. It is an Impossible board. I do have the docs around here someplace, let me know if you need them I can scan them into a pdf file. It does actually work to copy protected disks, but the copy can only be played on the computer with the Impossible installed and enabled I was thinking about selling the 800 I have with the impossible board in it. I have several other 800's and never use it. -Chuck

Gypsy by Avalon Hill. The worst of the worst. -Chuck -
Unlisted game found - Space Station Quest
Chuck Gill replied to Chuck Gill's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Atari Frog, www.atarimania.com was one of the places I looked for it. I dumped it, and tested the ATR file. You are right it is an awful game. It also requires basic. -Chuck Here you go, Space Station Quest- AIMSSQ.ATR -
I was digging through some of my 8-bit stuff and found a game called Space Station Quest. It was from AIM software. Anyone heard of it? I can't find anything about it. The disk has no label and is in an old Elephant Memory sleeve. So it may not be the original disk. It was purchased in a store the receipt was still in the box. -Chuck

I just purchased a good digital camera and have taken some hi resolution pictures of the Tutorvision. If any Intellivision fans would like to see them I can email them to you. Drop me an email or PM. -Chuck -
Batari, Thanks for your awesome contribution. Accessible 2600 programming, it's just incredible. Chuck

I got 2 TutorVision games + golf + sub hunt. I did ask her, but she didn't really offer much information. She just seemed to know that it was old, and it hadn't been used in a long time. -Chuck -

Chuck Gill replied to doubledown's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Wow, Doubledown. I remember those kiosk's. It looks awesome. Congrats! -Chuck -
I have a fairly extensive Pac-man collection, along with hundreds of classic (and current) games. I also have all kinds of videogame related paraphenalia. The newest being one of those N64 liscense plates in a stand. -Chuck

Roi, I'm almost embarrassed to say. The woman I bought it from thought no one would be interested in it and priced it very low. I had no idea how sought after it was at the time either. It was $5.00 games included. -Chuck -

Tempest, From what I can gather there's three known. Maybe a few more exist. It seems like it does have a different Exec program and a new GROM. It is pretty sweet. -Chuck -

Found more TutorVision history in the July 2003 Intellivision Lives newsletter. It's about halfway down the webpage, Tutor Tiger is so the shiznit! July 2003 Intellivision Newsletter -Chuck -
Intellivision TutorVision found w/games
Chuck Gill replied to Chuck Gill's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
This is pure speculation, but it sounds reasonable. (to my twisted mind) I thought of this because the console has an extremely short power cord, and the two consoles known to exist were found around Chicago. The power cord is less than a foot long. The perfect length to mount the unit in some sort of demonstration cabinet. The headquarters for World Book was in Chicago. During the years surrounding the copyright date on the games, 1989, the Consumer Electronics Show was also held in Chicago. Perhaps they made a few of these prototypes to demo at CES and when the show was over some World Book employees gained custody of them. The one I bought came with Golf and Sub Hunt as well as the TutorVision games, so it was known to the previous owner that it functioned as an Intellivion. One other oddity, whenever you turn it on you are greeted with a bright colored solid screen. You have to press the reset switch to get the inserted game to start. Thanks for all the congrats, my wife's find of a box of 5200 protos a few years was our previous best. I'm getting more exited about this as time passes. I had no idea how unique this was until I started searching for info. -Chuck -

intvgene, I don't mind dumping them at all. I have the means to dump Atari 2600 carts using a modded 7800. Is there a similar system fo the INTY? I also have an eprom burner I could use if the chip pinouts were compatible. Anyone know the pinout? -Chuck -

Thanks everyone. I thought it was a good find. I had read Ted Brummer's page, it was about the only website that had much info on the TutorVision. I'm sure more info will come to light. Here are a some screenshots from the title screens. I wish I had a better camera, but here's what I could get. -Chuck -

Jess, I'm pretty sure there was a Tandy/Radio Shack version too. The World Book one seems to have a slightly modified Intellivision operating system. I sure can't get the TutorVision games to work in my Intellivision, but the TutorVision console is compatible with Intellivision games. -Chuck -

Here's a couple of pics of the games. They are just like Intellivision carts except for the color and the TutorVision logo on the back. -Chuck -
I bought a World Book TutorVision Saturday at a garage sale. It was an odd color for an Intellivision and came with a couple games, so I bought it After searching around the web I can only find one other person that mentions having one of these and nobody else that has any TutorVision games. This one came with two TutorVision games - Shapes in Space and Map Mazes. The TutorVision games do not work on my Intellivion II, but all of my Intellivision games seem to work fine in it. It even plays Donkey Kong that my Inty II won't. Here's a pic of the console. I can post pics of the carts and some screenshots if anyone is interested. -Chuck

Poll: How many people currently own Cannon Man?
Chuck Gill replied to gulcjeremy's topic in Atari 2600
I have one. -
I'll think povlok is correct too, sounds like a good explanation. Chuck

I have one like that too. The caps don't look big enough to fit over the regular style switch handles. Maybe they are complete replacement switches. The one I have has "Property of Atari Inc. Sunnyvale California 94086" on the inside of the lid. Chuck I just linked to the pics, they're big. http://www.zutco.com/atari/switches.jpg http://www.zutco.com/atari/property.jpg

Thanks, that's what I'd hoped they would do.

It's an amazing programming feat, and a cool game. Thanks for releasing the binary. Chuck

The stores around here seem to have plenty of DS's available. Can the touch screen games be played by a left-handed person? The main reason I haven't bought one is that my whole family is left handed. It seems that if you are using the stylus with your left hand the directional pad would be unusable. Chuck

The videos on the cd are outstanding, especially Sleep. The bonus C64 Cynthcart program is pretty cool too. Now I just need to find one of those C64 keyboard overlay things that Paul uses. -Chuck
