My BUTT ... https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/shark-shark/intellivision Seven days after submitting the video declaring "nobody's beating that", someone submitted a higher score. I had it beat in 1983. It is a tough score to get without killing sharks after 100k. If you guys read other sections of atariage, there's some sad news about this guy in the classic gaming section. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntyFanMatt Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 There are much higher scores than that all over the place. We have several scores right in this competition way higher than that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad news? What happened? Here's some tragic details, I just found out myself. I noticed a few videos seemed "angry", but I ignored it and just posted the Shark video. Yikes...

It looks like an InTV controller with the usual keypad but there's a joystick instead of just the normal disc controller??? Please tell me I'm NOT the only dork using regular InTV Flashback disc controllers???? Yes I'm a n00b as this is the first time I've seen an InTV controller with a joystick.... ???.

No lol, most people don’t play like that. That is a joystick that you can “stick” onto the disc but I would not recommend that. Most Intellivision games play better with just the disc. And they are known to ruin controllers too because you can’t get them off. So stay away from those, far away!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It slides on to the Intellivision controller. I had one in the 80's; but it slips off if you push the joystick too hard, so it was not for me ... besides, I love using the disc. Anyway... that's what he's using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intelligentleman Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Agree that the disc is probably the best part of the controller. So I've never been interested in trying anything like this. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Any true Intelliman should be able to withstand the brutality of the side buttons. Numb thumbs or die!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
