Yes, intvfunhouse is the best place for variants, although David's Intellivision library has some good info on it too. I can help with variants too, especially the Digiplay games.

I have to figure out this task

I have two different place for the variants in the book: the rarity/value list, where it becomes very difficult to distinguish the variants since in the ebay auctions you cannot tell most of the time little difference on the boxes.. so I'm adding all the variants but many of that are without value so far...

and the catalogue section where I should put pictures, the problem here is to have high quality pic....... it's a long task :-) I'm improving the book step by step

Yes, I think we should document all the variants but we don't necessarily have to price them all as many of them are minor as you point out. Maybe you could just have prices for the more notable/popular variants. I guess I'm going to be taking a lot of pictures.

did you know this?

Impressive job! Complimenti!!

[vprette]

Hello everyone

 

thanks for the support, I'd like to get few comments/suggestions about sections of the book.

the top 20 wanted list is based on the estimated price, not the rarity (for which the list would be fullfilled by brazilians clones or tutorvision games): do you agree

 

I'm focusing on the hardware part to be updated in future releases, but moslty like to know what do you prefere: what is the section you like more or you think should be improved (more interviews, more technical infos on the console...?)

[accousticguitar]

I'm partial to interviews myself. More is always better.

[vprette]

waiting for Chevallier to find time for an interview :-)

I want to meet more "originals" developers
