MrBeefy Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 So are there any killer INTV homebrew games one must play? For like the 7800 I would say, BBCQ, Time Salvo, & PacMan Collection. 2600 Toyshop Trouble, Stellas Stocking, Draconian, Dungeon, & EMR. What am I missing from the INTV and are the roms available? Also maybe it is me but does it seem like INTV homebrews are more expensive or on par with Pokey 7800 homebrew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I really only own one Intelly homebrew (For shame!). But I highly recommend it. That would be Sydney Hunter & The Sacred Tribe, but I just noticed it is now listed as currently sold out on the Collectorvision website store. Hopefully they get some more in. https://collectorvision.com/shop/intellivision/sydney-hunter-the-sacred-tribe-3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intvsteve Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I've only bought a tiny number of non-Intellivision home-brew games, and they've all been a good bit cheaper, so you're correct on that front. That said, the inherent costs are higher. They *must* use custom boards. After that, some use new shells. Boxes, fancy manual, and overlays -- even when not actually intended for a game -- inevitably happen, too. As to games, that's always going to be subjective. A few that I know ROMs are available for - killer apps, all: DK Arcade DIIK Arcade Ms. Pac-Man Space Patrol Christmas Carol and the Ghost of Christmas Presents After that my memory isn't so good. Some of the other "killer" games IMHO: Lost Caves of Kroz: (Puzzler): ROM: don't think so) Ultimate Pong (All the Pongs): ROM: ?? Stonix (Arkanoid-like): ROM: ?? Paddle Party (another set of Pong-like games) ROM: NO Super Chef BT (BurgerTime on steroids): ROM: ?? Space Raid (Good Zaxxon): ROM: I think so - forget where Princess Quest (platformer): ROM: ?? Jr. Pac-Man (duh): ROM: Not yet Boulder Dash: ROM: NO Hover Bovver: ROM: NO Missile Domination (Missile Command): ROM: ?? There are quite a few good fun and some quite familiar games. Space Patrol: http://www.spacepatrol.info/ Carol is here: http://www.carolvsghost.com/pg_buy.html Here are a few places to locate multiple ROMs: Intelligentvision offers numerous ROMs: http://intellivision.us/intvgames/orderroms.php Intellivision Revolution offers some ROMs: http://www.intellivisionrevolution.com/roms Carl Mueller, Jr. (DK Arcade, Ms. Mac-Man) possibly here: http://www.carlmuellerjr.com/ If you can locate the Intellivision Lives! and Rocks! CDs, quite a few unreleased game ROMs are on there -- many of which have appeared on cartridges. Not sure if those ROMs can be extracted from the other places they've been published. It would be handy if we had a consolidated location for this kind of info. The idea has crossed my mind more than once... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 (edited) I'd recommend these (bolded games are must plays, IMO): Christmas Carol vs. the Ghost of Christmas Presents D2K Princess Quest Space Patrol Lost Caves of Kroz Piggy Bank Sydney Hunter & the Sacred Tribe Stonix Astro Invader Old School Boulder Dash Hover Bovver IntyBasic Showcase Volume 1 Missile Domination Paddle Party Ultimate Pong Oregon Bound Match 5 Intelligentvision has a bunch of decent upgraded games (Ms Night Stalker, Super Chef BT, Mystic Castle, Super Pro Baseball, Fight for the Cup Hockey, Super Pro Tennis) Rev released a bunch of decent ports (Missile Domination, Moon Blast, Jawcrusher, Copter Command, Best 'Em & Eat 'Em) Definitely looking ahead for these: The Minstrel's Legend Defender of the Crown IntyBasic Showcase Volume 2 Edited July 11, 2018 by JasonlikesINTV 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+the1hatman Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I can echo a few of the recommendations mentioned above: Super Chef BT - a must have for fans of Burgertime Piggy Bank - an amazing timer based puzzle map game Scarfinger - INTV's closest thing to a 007 game Hover Bovver - brand new release that is a ton of fun Super Pro Baseball - the best version of the game on Intellivision Mystic Castle - huge improvement on the already excellent Thunder Castle Old School - super fun maze running game Go Sub - super fun underwater maze running game with alternate versions of play built in Ms. Pac-Man - so much like the arcade version you won't believe you're playing an Intellivision I don't have these yet but you may want to look into them: Meteors - a remake of a classic arcade game that looks amazing Christmas Carol vs. the Ghost of Christmas Presents - universally loved game in the community that some think may be the best homebrew produced to date. I don't play ROMs but I know this is available if you like. I'm waiting to snag a CIB copy though they don't come cheap. I know it's odd to recommend a game I haven't played but too many people have spoken glowingly about this release to be wrong. It's definitely one I plan on getting someday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fsuinnc Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 You need an LTO or emulator but Stunt Cycle got a pretty nice review ( just sayin) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zV-KaES3Wc&t=4s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 You know how old games don't really take that long to play? Like, some you can finish in half an hour? The only answer here is obvious: Desert Bus. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBeefy Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 See I want an LTO but with becoming a dad in next few months I can justify the price. Ebay had some but went for wjat theu would normally cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having sold some on eBay buy the time a dealer can buy them and have his PayPal fees and eBay fees covered it is just as easy and affordible to send a check to Joe. :-) I don't see people parting with their LTO carts cheap.

carlsson Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Doesn't PayPal still prohibit selling flash carts like LTO Flash! and others? I'm not sure even eBay would let it remain listed. Getting into serious trouble with these two is not something most would do in order to sell off a spare flash cart if there are other markets like here on AA where most of the customers hang out anyway.

If you have been flagged sometimes they do. I don't know how it happens, I think it is usually a disgruntled buyer who complains there are no games on it.
