Kamikazi26 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 The Ultimate 2609 console. -3 external USB plugs -Ethernet port -composite out -1080P HDMI -fully functional OEM controllers -controllers are simply plugged into a new header. They can easily be swapped out. -Mausberry intelligent shutdown and power up circuit -separate 5v power supply with master shutoff switch -working original reset & power switch -SD card hidden inside glued in cartridge case -Raspberry pi 3 B+ - Top cover not modified, so it can be swapped out with another Intellivision console type to change the “look”. I got bored. Had to build a project. This is nothing new. I’m not the first to do this, just sharing my project. fine tuning the software side of things for the menus. My goal with this? To have the true “feeling” of playing with my childhood 2609 console, but having it in 1080p with the clearest picture available. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmart604 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 That’s awesome Luc! I look forward to trying it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+fdr4prez Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I like projects like this; thanks for sharing. How functional is the original Reset button? The script that I use has a short press for reset and a long press for game quit. Send me a PM if you are interested in trying it out.

+fdr4prez Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 It looks like all the internal hardware work is completed. Not sure if you've seen the Intv-1 dongles that can be used with the adapter, so you don't need make your own with that little breadboard. http://www.2600-daptor.com/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikazi26 Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 Yeah, I saw those. I had all the parts I needed to build my own though, but you are correct, it would have been easier with those adapters. I really enjoyed building this.. I’m still implementing slight improvements (thanks to you)..:) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zendocon Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Great - maybe now it can go online? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikazi26 Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 Unfortunately not. The Ethernet is simply for changing Data on the SDCard only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
