In the first video, from 6:00 to 6:04, a kid is playing Wing War on an Intellivision. Wing War was never released for that console.

Thank for posting the videos.

 

Yes, thank you.

 

I have 3 protos (Atlantis & cosmic ark & wing war for cv) from Imagic. A friend of mine worked next door to them back in the day and got them when he got invited inside while digging through their garbage for consoles (long story) to trade for C=64 s. he gave them to me about 20 years ago.

Wow great, are they fully playable?

Might be cool to do a boxed release of those games.

Yes they are playable. They all apear to be the same as the production release save for Atlantis.. or was it Cosmic Ark... one of them was different (I'll have to check) as it didn't have the little escape saucer after the game ended. I think it was decided to link the games just before production. I didn't think Wing War was released on the CV, but I finally found a boxed copy in Kaybee Toys back in the day.. on clearance :-)

 

I'll see if I can take a picture of them. The boards actually say Imagic on the circuit board and they are eproms and havea date on them as I recall.
