Sinjinhawke Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I will never part with my Intellivision if I don't have to. My wife will have the joy of liquidating it when I'm gone. I get out and walk or run everyday so I can play for years to come. Need to live long enough to understand what the heck is going on in Vectron. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shall see! Even if people don't necessarily dump their collections, it might cause less people to be actively seeking physical copies of especially the more expensive titles, dropping demand and thus prices. It would be hard to imagine it not having some kind of impact either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me wish the LTO Flash carts were still around so I could at least play the game on real hardware. I do have an original 1989 Spiker loose cart and a list of games missing from my collection, if anyone would be interested in a possible trade. If you have an original loose Spiker! cart to trade for other intellivision games I would be shocked if you dont get some offers. It doesn't get much more rare than that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be able to fill out a bunch of holes for you. Sale, trade or barter.. send me your list. intellivision.collector@outlook.com Edited September 4, 2020 by Kamikazi26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't get much more rare than that. The loose carts are sorted and alphabetized by color. The white one near the bottom covered by overlays is just Maze-A-Tron. The two reds on the bottom of the red stack are Triple Action and Deadly Discs. The iMagic list is Atlantis, Beauty & The Beast, Demon Attack, Dracula, Draginfire, Microsurgeon, Swords & Serpents, Tropical Trouble, and White Water. The Interphase ones are Blockade Runner and Sewer Sam. Activision: Happy Trails, Pitfall, and Stampede. Atarisoft: Centipede and Pac-Man. Parker Bros: Frogger, Popeye, Q*bert, Star Wars. Coleco: Carnival, DK, Mouse Trap, Turbo, and Venture. Anything else is missing. I think I have 88/125.

I assume the one that says Spiker Super Pro Volleyball, but there is one that just says Volleyball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think someone emailed me about a larger square label once? I don't have it listed on the site though. Unfortunately it's also too easy to fake that kind of thing, especially these days.

Humblejack Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 I think the one Cmart posted is the rarest followed by the Volleyball and finally Spiker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with that assessment. My VOLLEYBALL copy is sealed in one of those ventilated baggies IIRC. That one @cmart604 has - I wonder if that came along after both the boxes AND the VOLLEYBALL labels ran out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Just to add more data on the Spiker label variants, here's mine (the common one): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I just realized that the rare Spiker variant label uses the same font at a rare MTE-201 label (complete with clear baggy). Interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSRSteve Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 These were probably at the end, as there are a bunch that were never used. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
