Game of 2013 - Super Chef BT or Super Pro Tennis?

[+intvsteve]

Yes, I usually do the poll

I'm waiting since Paddle Party is coming out soon

 

so let's summarize the candidates: 3? intelligentvision games and 2 elektronite games, the poll will open in JANUARY

 

 

Fixed that for you .

FTFTFY.

 

Refresh my memory... For this year the candidates are:

IntelligentVision:

1. Super Pro Tennis
2. SuperChef BT
3. ???

Elektronite:

1. Match 5
2. Paddle Party (forthcoming)

Can't recall a third IntelligentVision release, unless you're counting Deep Pockets?

sorry my mistake

 

2 intelligentvision and 3 elektronite (DK Arcade CIB is a 2013 release)

 

I'm wondering about Mouse Trap Reissue and Tron Complete... no idea if those are candidate for 2013

Funky formatting in the quote, inserting extra slots in the list.

 

So, what are the *three* Elektronite releases then? I thought both D2K Arcade and DKArcade (CiB) were in 2012.

Maybe Kroz will be released this year

[+intvsteve]

Ouch... a double hit on the wallet right at the end of the year from Elektronite for Paddle Party and Kroz? I'll need to moonlight just to earn enough to keep up with all these new releases!

[Ignorama]

It was not a final answer, I just could imagine that it will be released soon. If not I wonder which title it is.

[Rev]

I'm hoping mousetrap will be ready to ship this year, if not it will be a January release i think!

[Ignorama]

But its nothing for the poll Even Tron Complete just contains older games, right? They are nice collectibles, but in fact they are old games.

[Rev]

Dk arcade is a repackage of d2k which is basicly a remake of the original dk. It has original code in it if i remember right.

 

Super chef BT is a reverse engineered remix of original.

 

Tennis is basicly the same as original.But with new 1 player AI.

 

 

So, these three are really just older games too.

Elektronite's DK Arcade was a repackage of IntelligentVision's edition that came a couple of years earlier.

 

If I recall correctly, IntelligentVision released Carl's Donkey Kong Arcade on 2011; then Elektronite released Carl's D2K on 2012, which included Donkey Kong Arcade as "game one" (with some bug fixes); then in 2013 they re-released the same game as DK Arcade (or D1K, I can't keep track), with a new box, some bug fixes, and a re-ordering of the levels.

 

I wouldn't consider DK Arcade to qualify as "game of the year" for 2013. Didn't it win in 2011 already?

Well, I think we have all agreed in the past that D2K is its own game, even though it is basically DK arcade with new levels. I think Super Chef BT falls in the same category.

 

I also believe there was considerable effort put into making Tennis into a single player game, when the first one was completely devoid of AI. It's not only a re-release. In my mind, that makes it a new game, especially if it is a remake of a 30 year old title.

 

If Mousetrap and TRON Complete contain the old ROMs with new packaging, I think it's like the re-issue of DK Arcade.

 

Imagine if we had voted every year that Joe released a new edition of 4-Tris--it would be the game of the decade!

I say we add to the poll every released cart.

Games out in january are in the middle earth: should we consider for the 2013 or 2014 pool

We'll have to send a Hobbit to retrieve them!

 

 

 

.... sorry, bad joke.

I agree. It dont matter if remake, reissue, hack, or whatever.

 

I also think if the sears overlays release this year, you should add them!!!! It would be interesting to see if it got any votes over an actual game.

How about this: I propose we create two polls (or one poll with two questions):

1. What is your favourite game of 2013?

2. What was the best overall Intellivision-related release of 2013?

 

That way, we don't pit non-game items against games, and at the same time, we get to vote on what general item excited us the most. I can imagine, for example, Paddle Party winning game of the year, and the Sears overlay pack winning best release.

 

What do you think?

[Ignorama]

Nice idea. Its really sad that just a two handful of people could vote for the stick of grips, because this thing is the hottest candidate for the item of the year.

[wolfy62]

Great idea DZ!

[Rev]

Why so why stop there?

 

Valter could make multiple catagories.

 

Of course the top one:

 

2013 Intellivison game of the year

 

Then: 2013 intellivision related release

 

Then maybe:

 

Graffix of the year

 

Box art of the year

 

Sound of the year

 

Gameplay of the year

[Ignorama]

The problem is, I really like this idea, even if there are more categories than games ^^

Now we're talking! Although I wouldn't separate "gameplay of the year" from "game of the year." After all, what the heck are you voting for in a game of the year?

Total package? :-) I dont know.

 

I vote leave it in valters capable hands!

So a cart only release cannot compete against a CIB? That's not nice...

I didnt even think about a cart only release actually.....

 

but now that you mention it.

 

Valter should include the DOTC demo cart!

 

And If the Hover Bovver Half Cut Demo cart is actually released in 2013, it should be included!

 

And maybe the empty HB box as well!

 

It never ends! LOL
