Crazy Intellivision homebrews shelves

Recommended Posts

 

Finally someone who shows us a real homebrew

 

Ok, I have finally started unpacking my collection yet again as I've been overhauling my videogame shelving set up. Out with the old and in with the new so to speak. Now I have to figure out the jigsaw puzzle that is how do I display the bulk of my collection given the space that I have. :? Thought I'd start by putting the homebrew stuff on the shelves first although this is not likely the final resting spot for these pieces. I'm really liking the way the games stand out against the white shelving. :lust: Here's the first collection pics I've posted in quite some time...

 

The first one is all four shelves, followed by some close ups of two shelves at a time. Oliver's repro boxes, Hover Bovver boxes, Takeover and Land Battle manuals, the Intellicart and some patches are on top of some of the boxes. I just realized my CC3 is not present. :dunce:

Are those go for the Gold and Game Factory cartridges playable in any way? ;-)

It is not the final resting spot for most of this as much of it will end up at my house on display.

 

And if you can't find your Cuttle Cart 3 you previously traded it to me for your 3rd Philly Classic 4tris cart. Thanks again, Dale :P

Geez you guys. I'd take a photo of my homebrew 'shelf', but it would be a pretty empty shelf. I only have D2K, Old School and Carol. Soon to add Space Raid and Kroz. I would someday like Super Chef BT and Space Patrol...

I currently keep my games in plastic tubs and away in cupboards so I thought I would get a few out for a photo shoot. Here is my homebrew collection.

 

 

Well that didn't work, how do I get the photo to save?

4tris is a story on it's own but with Kroz you are better of with the production copy when released.

What's the tiny Carol in front of the box? Is that the manual?

The small Carol was a box I made a few years ago while game testing and DZ posted the image to the Beta group. I thought it would be fun to print and make it and sit next to the console while testing. The box is "fully functional" with a cart retention piece inside, this was a non gatefold design.

Cute! I think the final manual booklet is bigger than that box! :o

OMG, I think I need a set of 125 mini boxes :)

When I finally become rich and famous making homebrewed Intellivision games, I'll donate a chunk of my fortune to set up the JC* Crisis & Recuperation Center for the Chronically Obsessive Collector.

 

That will be my contribution as penance to atone for all the variations of Christmas Carol I will create and sell to you in order to raise the afore mentioned fortune.
