jaybird3rd Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Looks good! I'm glad to see it's finally become a reality; I think I've been waiting for at least three years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberto Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 (edited) Worth the wait! (though the space invader looks a bit more "atarian" than inty to me...) Edited July 4, 2010 by roberto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Joe Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 i agree. i think its great boxart but to me the running football player will always be the iconic sprite of intellivision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremysart Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Been waiting too long for this. Can't wait!! Have they listed a final release date? I thought it was supposed to come out mid June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari2600Lives Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Looks cool, did they release a final list of games yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 Looks cool, did they release a final list of games yet? i read on intellivision facebook page that it will be very similar to the PC version of intellivision lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicGMR Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 i agree. i think its great boxart but to me the running football player will always be the iconic sprite of intellivision. I'm thinking that would have been the box art had the Running Man not already been displayed in the logo at the top. Man I'd kill for a 1-player Sea Battle... or did I(hopefully) miss something in the past 8 years? Looking forward to this title! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I saw that as well, I guess my dream of getting B-17 Bomber on there is gone ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremysart Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Agg, they NEED to give a release date, I am getting impatient.. and Virtual Play Games "official" website is very un-promising. You cant click on anything, there is no info, and a dead picture link.. As for the games, if there are "over 60" as they say, I am sure some of our favorites will be in there Long as they got Thunder Castle, Tower of Doom, and either of the AD&D games, or Minotaur as they renamed it, I'm good to go! As for classics, I am sure we'll see Thin Ice, Astrosmash, Snafu, Utopia, Shark Shark and hopefully some of the Imagic games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic George 2K3 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 And all we get for the cover is a single alien from Space Armada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremysart Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 (edited) And all we get for the cover is a single alien from Space Armada. I felt the same way at first, but if you think about it, they are trying not to just target us INTV fans, but all generations, and a "space invader" (or its clone in this case) is a good icon to represent classic games. At least the running man is on the cover too. Edited July 16, 2010 by jeremysart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
