EdgeOfPortal Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) Got in a lot from Italy today! Bought it back in December but it's been stuck in USPS. Was getting increasingly worried they lost it. Thankfully, they didn't. Anyway, among the lot was some Kronos Europea hardware, a couple Radofin variants, but let's just go straight to the highlight. It's an Extended Basic! There wasn't a box included in the lot, but I'm not going to complain about that. Secondly, it also included the Italian catalog, which I've been looking for. Missing just two cartridges now. Edited February 26, 2021 by EdgeOfPortal 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a total pain in the ass to get my hands on! However, that being said, if you do enough searching, you'll eventually get one! Check out international ebay sites. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intelligentleman Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Woo just got sealed copy of LOGO for Aquarius. I already have an Aquaricart, though, so I might actually consider keeping it sealed since I can use the version on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omnibro Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 So I hit garage sales, Craig's List, Ebay, Mercari and OfferUp for Intellivision stuff, is there any other outlet that I'm missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omnibro Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Just picked up a Sylvania model with box (which is a little rough but pretty decent) for $75. Contemplating using it for trade or keeping it. Either way stoked to nab this. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4300 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Just grabbed this off of mercari. Probably should've waited for one with better controllers, but this had a stack of games and the intellivoice and the price was reasonable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omnibro Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 (edited) The Intellivision II is the one I don't have, but those controllers warded me off.

4300 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I have no plans to destroy it, I just wanted to see if the original style pad could be made to work in the 2's controller, mainly if the buttons still work with the original style mylar. If it does, I'll order a set of replacement mylar, trim/modify as needed. If it doesn't, it doesn't. Either way, I still have a FB controller that I'll probably rewire, or build an adapter for.

A rather easy fix is to use a 2609 hand controller, rewire it for use with the Intellivision II cord. Worked for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intellivision 1 style membrane will work with some trimming, but the DIY route turned out well enough it's not worth the effort. No flashback controllers were harmed in the making of this post.

Intelligentleman Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 YES! Finally got a red stripe Intellivision II to match my ECS, System Changer, and Music Synthesizer! Looks to be in pretty decent shape. No box though, but oh well... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
