The lorenzogino69 Collection

[Intymike]

 

Hi, look what I found in my drawers ... When I was a child, my imagination was flying ... And I'm sure that even as a child, the wonderful world of Intellivision, had made inroads into my heart.

 

 

 

Now try this today with The Witcher 3.

 

Good old days!

It's true, I never thought of that ...

Indeed, pity that I've done other,,, maybe I could get them all!

But in those days, I had'nt so many games ...

Unique in the world!

Good old days!

totally agree with you ...

I love your collection it is outstanding, and way deeper and better than mine! I have the 125 and all the Homebrews but all your variant stuff is amazing and I will never get there.

 

With that being said, I have been following the Intellivision closely everywhere over the last 20 years, playing it for 35 and you can check it wherever you want but getting a boxed complete Spiker! is way harder to find than a Learning Fun 1 or 2.

 

There was a guy here who found a boxed Spiker! in a large lot hidden in the background and got it for 110. U,S, dollars. He was so happy he finally found it yet......2 months later he put it up up on Ebay and sold it for over $1,000.

 

My best friend is 1 game shy of the 125......Spiker! and about 10 others when you see there posts and needs lists. Good luck you will find it you are diligent like Jason, C-Mart or whoever and pick it off when you see it. And, maybe pay that extra just to get it done, collecting is a fine balance between being thrifty and spending to get to the end of your collecting goal! Always fun for me I love it!

Hi, thanks for your compliments ... Yes, I think I'm very meticulous and precise, in everything I do.

My passion began as a boy, 11 years old, when my father, after a day of school, I did find at home, the new console ...

How much time I've spent playing, and each time he bought a new game, it was always a party ...

I remember that not every game I could find, Locomotion, for example, I searched the store but couldn't find it. Then, growing up, I have a little abandoned my passion, but I picked it up in 2008, when I began my collection.

I figure I should be patient, that sooner or later a recapitalization play, perhaps in great condition and at a great price.

Unfortunately a few years ago the first March 2012, I got beat to an auction where I was offered 1350,00$, and I couldn't take my Spiker ... You see it wasn't the moment!

I still have the email of ebay... you can click on the link to see deals ... I, clearly, are lorenzogino69

few people recognize it?

I am sure that sooner or later I'll get it: it's just a matter of time ...

Those are great! It's interesting that you seem to have based your artwork around the manual or box illustrations, which use a blend of "pixelated" lines and straight diagonals.

 

Did you notice that some lines had no pixels? As a kid I thought it was strange at first that the "screenshots" in the illustrations sometimes had tilted blocks and diagonal straight lines.

 

Eventually I figured out they were not screenshots; but for a while I wondered why they didn't make the game look like that!

the one time I made them, I didn't know what was a pixel, and even if there was!

I took paper and colored pencils, and I tried to make them the best possible ...

I was a kid, I used to work of imagination!

Hi,

here is my newest addition to my various versions of Checkers, which later will post......

This tape of the game, besides having the blue booklet, also has the label Blue-light blue.

Someone has?

I've never seen, and I bought it.

[+intvsteve]

Interesting… I wonder if it was printed that way, or if it has faded?

 

EDIT: Based on that picture, it doesn't look like it faded - the circular symbol / logo still looks bright.

I do not know ,

I can only say that I label faded, but this, even looking at the box, has no trace of faded.

The writing is beautiful, as well as logo and small written Hong Kong ... will be my lady smurf ...

That blue checkers is fantastic. It will go nicely with your pink Space Battle and Star Strike So you have both Backgammon color variants (dark purple and lavender....and green and white)?

Here are some of the cart label color variations I have collected:

Miss me white and pink backgammon ...

[+intellivotion]

imo those labels are all the same and you are colorblind

Or I have Synesthesia and they all smell like music

 

On second thought, maybe I have Presbyopia...

Or perhaps my synapses are too slow (except when a new homebrew is released: then they're fast )

Let's start with various types of box that until now I managed to collect.

If we exclude the box INTV and that Sears, which I have already shown above, now we'll see my Italian box, that USA with reference, Hong Kong with reference, that of Hong Kong and that of Radofin
