    Thank you again, carlsson, in 6th or 7th grade, I remember bringing these magazines to an intro programming class and using up an entire “free” period where we could work on whatever programs we wanted to try and get one of these to work. Never had success. And this was in a computer lab of Apple IIs in the early 90s. i just don’t think I’m ready for that kind of disappointment, even 28 years later ?

    But, bottom line, if I type this as-is, it’s not going to work without modifications? Thank you again, I’m new at this
  3. Intelligentleman
    That thought crossed my mind… like what IF, after all these years, it somehow still worked?
  4. Intelligentleman
    Well, it’s always been my understanding that the Aquarius can’t do programmable graphics. Is that what this command is for?
  5. Intelligentleman
    Sounds like it’s worth a try? Or would you say no? I’m just looking for practice, but would like to have a shot at something that does something. Thank you for your input so far

    It’s a BASIC game for IBM PCs and Apple II. The description makes it seem like there’s some primitive graphics going on, and I think that might be the barrier for Aquarius. Can anyone look at the code and see if there’s something in there to prohibit this program from working?

    Here's something I've wanted for a while. Later today I think I will be able to try it out!

    Honestly, I'm having fun getting into the Homebrew ROMs. $10 is am accessible price point, and these games look, play, and sound like the games I already enjoy on Intellivision. What we need is some kinda way to download new roms direct from a centralized store front. Maybe via a an LTO Flash Cart with a Ethernet input?

    I prefer to set my aspect ratio to 4:3 or direct.

    Recently acquired the Aquarius modem. Can someone point me in the right direction for setting it up?

    Hello friends. I've recently acquired the Mattel Aquarius modem, complete with the cassette tape holding the program data and all of the instructions/documentation. Assuming I have all of the necessary hardware components, can someone point me in the right direction for a how-two or a tutorial? If such a thing exists, of course. Thanks!

    That's a good podcast. I liked the one where they spoke with the programmer of Shark! Shark! And the one where they talked about Truckin' And there was one I listened to semi-recently where they talked to the Marketing Directory for Mattel Electronics in the waning days of the pre-1983 crash. That was interesting as this guy had a lot to say about the ECS.

    Whoa, what's Space Gunner? Never heard of this one...
  14. Intelligentleman
    Well we're cheating these pollinators from fulfilling their purpose!?

    What a terrible name for this game, too. There's nothing about the title to hint at the semi decent game contained therein. Alien Arithmetic Math Blaster Number Quest I'm just spit-balling here
  16. Intelligentleman
    Alright I'ma see if I can get back there tonight. Thanks for the walkthrough! Wish me luck...

    Originally that wandering spider was supposed to be able to drop little webs around the map, which would have been cool, imo.

    I'm going to keep playing until I see all the screens. That second air balloon stage is still the death of me. So when I get to the next screen I only have like 2 lives left. How do you get past the baboon thing at the top?
  19. Intelligentleman
    Alright I'm going to bed. Beat this!
  20. Intelligentleman
    Now it's the second air balloon stage giving me fits
  21. Intelligentleman
    Holy crap things get weird on screen 4. I think a baboon is involved! Try to get there, Wolfy. And play with an Intellivoice. It's delightfully disturbing.
  22. Intelligentleman
    Farthest I got was the screen after the pirate ship with the cannon in the middle!
  23. Intelligentleman
    I think it's just a timing thing. You have to trigger the cannon, back off, then run
  24. Intelligentleman
    Can't get passed the pirate ship... That cannon blasts me every time. Second screen. Any tips?
  25. Intelligentleman
    This is exactly how I was introduced to Intellivision. Not this game, but by my uncle showing me.
