Holy thread necromancy--it's been 10+ years @paisleyboxers. 

 

looks like the power supply's output specs are 9v dc @ 500ma with a 5mm barrel plug and unmarked polarity. So, easy day there, probably. Once you find one, hopefully yours puts out less Russian(?) video than mine does.

 

I also took some pics of the power supply and rest of the system to replace the ones that are now gone. They should blow up fairly big. I'm guessing there's not a ton of english-language info on this oddball.

 

It came with an optional wireless RF transmitter which accepted the power cable on the back and then passed it through to the console (there was also a standard rca to coax cable in the box).  I'm guessing I can't just tune that wireless signal in with US equipment.  I'd heard of some 2600 clones having a similar wireless transmitter, but nothing else in my collection has one.

 

And yes, it was $9 at the Big Lots in Camarillo, CA just like you see it.  With the weird 220v power supply, rf transmitter for who-knows-where, and all the rest.  Seems I even stuffed the receipt in the box.

If anybody can read--whatever this is--here's a manual

  

 

Thank you for your incredible detailed reply!

The power adaptor works, thankfully, although the caps in the video output are fried. I need to do a complete trace and replace. 

The sound is spot on though!

I haven't heard of any atari console clones. Though this gallery of old soviet arcade games is a bit neat. One of them looks quite super-sprintish.

 

Speaking of the Dendy, I have a chinese famiclone called a Liko KL-235 which was made for the Russian market. Oddly I got it at a Big Lots here in the states. I expect they got a lot of returns, because of the odd power supply and 'unamerican' output...

I was just gifted a Liko KL-235 from a friend! Where can I look to find a power supply? The one passed onto me this weekend doesn't have one.

[Input device test program in IntyBASIC - hand controllers and keyboards]

Heya!

 

I'm looking for the intybasic source code for this project! I wanted to compile it myself and convert to the new Intv2 format created by Kevtris.

Any chance I could find the source for this?

How on earth do I buy this rom?

My LTO Flash and Intellivision are safely tucked away in my "no touching' box.

I'm using Grabulasaure's amazing Mister FPGA core and the Atari USB adaptor with the INTV2 controller.

I'm staying as legit as I can here, aand would love to pay for this rom ❤️

We intend to open sales of the 'complete in box' version at Portland in August. Mail order right after the Portland show. 

 

We will be selling materials for loose cartridges as soon as they are available. 

I missed this game at the show! How can I pick up a copy for my LTO drive?

[LTO Flash! UI Software and macOS 10.15 (Catalina)]

Hey - just finally catching up after the gaming expo. Awesome getting to chat, after figuring out I was running with one of your first builds for LTO.

I'm the dork who wanted to know about cusotom joysticks as a replacement for the INTV controllers to use with FPGA emulation on the mister.

 

I can confirm - the new build runs on Catalina!
